Selecting a Go To Destination Graphically

A graphical Go To can be used to select one of three items from the map

display—an existing waypoint, on-screen map items such as rivers, cities,

navaids, or a new map point. If you select a map item as the Go To destination,

the GPSMAP 3205 automatically uses the name of the map item, but the point

is not stored in the waypoint list. If you select a new map point (non-map item)

as the Go To destination, the GPSMAP 3205 automatically creates a waypoint

named MAP at the pointer location.

To Go To an existing waypoint or map item from the map display:

1. Use the

ROCKER to highlight the waypoint or map item you want to

navigate to on the Map Page, and press

NAV.

2. On the Navigation menu, highlight

Go To <waypoint name>, and press

ENTER.

To Go To a new map point (non-map item) from the map display:

1. Use the

ROCKER to move the pointer to the location you want, and press

NAV.

2. With

Go To MAP Point highlighted, press ENTER.

To stop navigation:

1. Press

NAV.

2. Highlight

Stop Navigation, and press ENTER.

Follow Track and TracBack Navigation

A track is an electronic breadcrumb trail recording or history of your path. The

track currently being recorded is the “active” track. An active track can be stored

in the unit and when stored, is referred to as saved. Both the Follow Track and

TracBack options navigate in the same way. Follow Track uses stored or “saved”

tracks; TracBack uses your current or “active” track.
