Garmin GPSMAP 175 - Manual (Page 67)

The route planning mode lets you calculate the same planning information
for any route stored in memory, in leg or cumulative leg or route totals.
To use the route planning mode:
1. Highlight the ‘Trip & Fuel Planning’ option from the main menu and press T.
2. If the plan field is not set to ‘Route’, press O and select it from the
options page.
3. Highlight the route number field and press T.
4. Use the R keypad to select the route you want to plan and press T.
5. The leg field will be highlighted. Press T.
6. To plan cumulative totals for the all route legs, select the ‘ALL’ option—or
use the R keypad to select a specific route leg to plan. Press T to
confirm.
7. Enter a speed for your trip, or press O to select your current SOG for the
speed value.
8. Enter an hourly fuel flow (if desired) in the fuel field, and press T.
9. Enter the date and time of your departure (the default date and time will
be the current date and time in UTC or local time, whichever you have
selected) and press T.
The bottom of the page will now display the planning information for the
route leg selected or the cumulative values for the entire route. The route
planning mode will also let you plan cumulative totals for multiple route legs
by using the ‘Hold First Waypoint?’ selection from the options window.
To plan multiple route legs:
1. Follow steps 1-6 above to select the last route leg you want to plan. For
example, select leg 03 if you want to plan cumulative totals for the first
three legs of the route (without including the rest of the route).
2. Enter the speed, fuel and date/time values as described in steps 7-9 above.
3. Press the O key to display the options page.
4. Select the ‘Hold First Waypoint?’ option and press T. The cumulative
totals from the first route waypoint to the end of the selective leg will
appear at the bottom of the page.
