MAP PAGE OVERVIEW
The Map Page displays your present position and direction of movement using a triangular
‘Position Icon’ that is centered on the map. As you travel the map display leaves a “trail” (track
log) of your movements.
The map displays geographic details such as rivers, lakes, highways, and towns. The map
can display a higher level of detail than the basemap provided with the unit (i.e. residential
streets, parks, etc.), if Garmin MapSource data has been downloaded to the unit using a CD-
ROM mapping program. When using MapSource data, the word ‘mapsource’ displays below
the map scale whenever you zoom in to view map details.
On the right side of the Map Page, you can choose to show either the Contact Bar, Data
Fields, or only the Map. As you highlight the contacts on the Contact Bar, the Map page cen-
ters the map on that contact and displays its name, direction, and distance.
In many instances the map displays an ‘Accuracy Circle’ surrounding the ‘Position Icon’.
The Rino 130 uses both map resolution and GPS accuracy in defining your location to a point
within the circle. The smaller the circle, the more accurate your location.
When using the ‘Pan Map’ feature, a small outline arrow (Map Pointer) can be moved about
the page to highlight and identify map items or to scroll the map to view areas not shown on
the display screen.
Four optional Data fields on the right side of the page can be programmed to provide a
variety of travel and navigation information.
