Garmin Geko 201 - Manual (Page 28)

20
There are two ways to create a route:
• Use existing waypoints that reside in the Geko 201. Follow the instructions below to
insert a waypoint into a route.
• Plan a ‘ROUTE’ in Garmin MapSource ™ on your PC, and upload the ‘ROUTE’ to
the Geko 201. See your Garmin Dealer for more information about MapSource
(MapSource is an optional accessory, and is not included with the Geko 201).
In either case, you can navigate to a destination using ‘ROUTE’ if a route has more
than two waypoints. A single waypoint route is only a normal waypoint, not a route, so the
on-screen ‘FOLLOW’ Button cannot be selected if there is only one waypoint in the route.
When you select the ‘FOLLOW’ Button, a list with two items is displayed letting you choose
where to go. The list alway shows the FIRST (BEGIN) and the LAST (END) waypoint in the
route. The Geko 201 guides you following each waypoint in the route.
There are two ways to insert a waypoint into a route. One way is to insert the waypoint
before an existing waypoint in a route. The other way is to insert the waypoint at the end of
the waypoint list in a route.
To insert a waypoint into a route:
1. From the ‘MENU’ Page, press the UP or DOWN Button to highlight ‘ROUTES’ and press
the OK Button to display the ‘ROUTES’ Page.
2. Press the OK Button to create a ‘New Route’. If there is no information in the route
area, press the OK Button to display the ‘ADD WAYPOINT TO ROUTE’ Page.
3. Press the UP or DOWN Button to highlight the waypoint of your choice and press the
OK Button to place the waypoint in the fi rst fi eld on the ‘ROUTES’ Page.
4. Repeat Step 3 until all of the waypoints you want are entered into the route list and
then press the PAGE button to get back to the page of your choice.
