Creating and Using a Route

A route gives you straight-line directions from one point to another,

or from one point to several others. The GPS 60 can store fifty routes

that contain up to 250 points each. You can create routes that include

waypoints or points of interest with the Routes Page. With MapSource

mapping software and your personal computer, you can create complex

routes and transfer them to your GPS 60. Created routes are automati-

cally saved in a list on the Routes Page. You can edit a route at any time.

To create a route:

1. From the Main Menu Page, use the

ROCKER

‘Routes’ and press

ENTER

.

2. Highlight ‘New’ and press

ENTER

.

3. Highlight <Select Next Point> and press

ENTER

to add a waypoint

or other point to your route. The Find page appears.

4. To add a waypoint, select ‘ Waypoints’ and choose the waypoint you

want to add to the route. To add other points, highlight the correct
category and choose the point you want to add to the route. See
