The GPS 40 will now guide you ‘HOME’.
As you begin walking again, the Navigation Page
will display nav data and graphic steering guid-
ance. The bearing and distance to waypoint, with
your current track and speed are displayed at the
top of the screen, with your estimated time enro u t e
(ETE) and velocity made good (VMG, or the rate you
a re closing in on your destination) at the bottom.
As you head towards your destination, the mid-
dle section of the screen provides visual guidance
to your waypoint on a moving graphic ‘highway’.
The moving arrow just below the course deviation
scale always points to your selected waypoint
(HOME) relative to the direction you are moving.

The moving highway
provides a visual per-
spective of the distance
and direction to way-
point. The highway will
always move to ‘point’
in the general direction
of your destination, with
the relative distance
indicated by the angle
of the outside lines of
the highway.
