Creating and Using a Route

Route navigation allows you to create a sequence of intermediate

waypoints which lead you to your fi nal destination. The GPSmap 76CS
stores 50 routes, with up to 250 waypoints each. A route can be created
and modifi ed from the Routes Page, and waypoints can be added to a route
from the Find Menu. More complex routes can be created using a PC and
MapSource mapping programs and then transferred to the unit memory.
Auto-Routes which are generated when you select “Go To” for a Find item,
map item or waypoint cannot be saved. Saved routes with more than 50
waypoints cannot be navigated using the “Follow Roads” option.

To create a route:

1. Access the “Routes” page from the Main Menu. The page has a

“New” button, an “Active” button and a list of saved routes.

2. Use the ROCKER key to highlight the “New” button and press

ENTER to display the route Setup Page.

3. With an empty row (dashed) in the route list highlighted, press

ENTER to display the Find Menu.

4. Use the Find Menu to select a route waypoint from one of the

Find Menu groups and display the Information Page for the
selected waypoint, city, exit, point of interest, etc. Highlight the
on-screen “Use” button and press ENTER to place it on the
Route Waypoint List.

5. To add more waypoints to the route, repeat the process in Steps

3 and 4. You can rename the route if desired.

6. Press QUIT to save it to the Saved Routes list. Or, highlight the

“Navigate” button and press ENTER to navigate.
