Garmin GPS III Pilot - Manual (Page 74)

Route navigation allows you to manually create a sequence of intermediate way-
points which lead you to your final destination. The GPS III Pilot will store up to 20
reversible routes, with up to 30 waypoints in each route. Routes can be created and
modified by text entry—using the rocker keypad to enter waypoint names. All of the
GPS III Pilot’s route functions are accessed through a ‘Routes’ option on the Main Menu.
To create a new route:
1. Press MENU twice to display the Main Menu.
2. Highlight ‘Routes’ and press ENTER. The Route List is displayed, showing all routes
stored in memory.
3. Press MENU to display the Route Options.
4. Highlight ‘New Route’ and press ENTER. The GPS III Pilot creates a route called
‘Empty-XX’. (The name changes as you add waypoints to the route, so make note of
the route name for future reference.)
5. Highlight the first waypoint name field and press ENTER to begin entering the name of
an existing waypoint in memory.
6. Use the rocker keypad to enter the name of the route waypoint and press ENTER.
7. Highlight the next waypoint name field, press ENTER and repeat step 6 until all route
waypoints have been added to the route.
Route List
The GPS III Pilot’s Route List displays all the routes currently stored in memory,
along with a descriptive name for each route. Once a route has been created, it can be
activated and used for navigation from the Route List. A route may be followed in the
same sequence as it was originally created, or you can invert the route and navigate
from the end waypoint back to the beginning waypoint.
To display the Route List,
showing all routes stored in
memory, select ‘Routes’ from
the Main Menu.
Select ‘New Route’ from the
Route Options and enter the
identifiers for the route way-
points in the sequence you
wish to follow them.
