Travel Time is the time that it will take to reach your destination at
your present closing speed. Arrival Time is the local time that it will be
when you arrive at the destination, based upon your present closing
speed and track.

Navigation Page, backtracking a trail. Driver is headed due east (a

110º track) toward a waypoint 110º (bearing) away. The cross track er-

ror range (white corridor) is 0.20 miles either side of the course. The
driver is headed toward waypoint 001, which is 0.21 miles away. The

vehicle is very nearly on course (off course 23 feet). Traveling at a

speed of 42 mph, the driver will arrive at the waypoint in 18 seconds.

Map Page
The map screens show your course and track from a "bird's-eye" view. By
default, this unit shows the map with north always at the top of the screen.
(This can be changed using options in Advanced Mode. See the topic Map
Orientation, in Sec. 5.) If you're navigating to a waypoint, the map also
shows your starting location, present position, course line and destination.

NOTE:

When our text says, "navigating to a waypoint," we really mean
navigation to any selected item, whether it is a waypoint you made,
a map feature or a map place such as a city or town.

Using the map is as simple as pressing the

PAGES

key. A screen similar to

those in following images appears. The arrow flashing in the center of the
screen is your present position. It points in the direction you're traveling.
The solid line extending from the arrow is your plot trail, or path you've
taken. (Remember, a flashing question mark on the arrow symbol or
flashing text displays means iFINDER has not yet calculated a position.)
