This section discusses the major pages in Land Mode, such as the

Map Page, as well as some additional features, such as routes and

points.

Map Page

Refer to

page 28 through 35

in the

“Aviation Mode Pages”

section

for more details about the Map Page.
The location marker (icon) that shows your travel on the Map Page

is a triangle symbol in Water and Land Modes. The GPSMAP

196 always turns on in location mode, with the last known location

centered on the map. When you press the

ROCKER, the GPSMAP

196 enters pan mode, which moves the map to keep the white arrow

(map pointer) within the screen area.

In Land Mode, by default, four user-selectable data fields appear on

the right side of the screen that can be configured to show any one

of the possible data options. The top of the screen shows the GPS

status or the route leg. You can also add additional data fields to the

page or select a full screen map without data fields.
