Section 6: Searching
NOTE:
The background map loaded in your unit's permanent memory lets
you search for some land features, including cities and lakes. For a
full set of searchable land features, including landmarks, streets,
addresses, highway exits and Points of Interest, you must load your
own high-detail custom map produced with our MapCreate soft-
ware. Or, you can use one of our plug and play map options such as
FreedomMaps, Fishing Hot Spots or NauticPath.
This unit's varied search functions all begin with either the Find Way-
point menu or the Map Page menu. Press
WPT
and the Find Waypoint
menu appears for waypoints and Points of Interest (POI). From the
Map Page, press
MENU
and the Map Page menu appears for streets and
highway exits.
Find Waypoint menu (left). Map Page menu (right).
NOTE:
You can search for items after the unit has acquired a position, or
while using the unit in simulator mode. Distance and bearing to
the selected item will be calculated from the unit's current position,
or the last known position if operating in simulator mode or with-
out a position determined). You can look up items by name or
search for items nearest to you.
