The GPS 90 lets you create and store up to 20 routes

of 30 waypoints each. Routes are created, copied and
edited through the route definition page, which is
accessed through the Main Menu Page.

To select the route definition page:

1. Press

P

until the Main Menu page appears.

2. Use the arrow keypad to highlight the ‘routes’ option.

3. Press the

E

key to display the routes page.

4. To return to the Main Menu page, press

Q

.

The route number field is displayed at the top of the

page, with a 16 character comment below. If no user
comment is entered, the field will display the first and
last waypoint in the route. The waypoint list accepts up
to 30 waypoints for each route, with fields for desire d
track and distance between legs (if the leg distance
exceeds 999 nm, the field will remain blank).

Below the waypoint list are the route page function

fields which let you copy, clear, invert or activate the dis-
played route. Routes 1-19 are used as storage ro u t e s ,
with route 0 always serving as the active route you are
navigating. If you want to save a route currently in route
0, be sure to copy it to another open route, as it will be
overwritten by the next route activation.
