Distance and Sun Calculation
The distance and sun calculation submenu page will give you the distance and
bearing between any two waypoints or between your present position and a way-
point. It will also calculate the sunrise and sunset (in local time) for a particular date
at either your present position or any stored waypoint.
To perform a distance and sun calculation:
1. Highlight the ‘from’ field, enter the desired waypoint (Fig. 70a), and press ENTER.
2. Highlight the ‘to’ field, enter the destination waypoint, and press ENTER.
3. The ‘date’ field will become highlighted (Fig. 70b). Enter the date you’ll arrive at your
destination, and press ENTER.
If you haven’t marked your present position as a waypoint or you leave the ‘to’
field blank (Fig.70b), the sunrise and sunset at your present position will be provid-
ed.
