Simulating Trail or Route Navigation
In Simulator mode, your unit can automatically follow a trail or route
without manual steering if you use these steps:
1. From the Map Page, go to the simulator menu. Pick a S TARTING P O-
SITION
at or near the beginning of your trail/route. Enter an approximate
T RACK
(shown in compass degrees) that will point you toward the start
of the trail/route.
2. Set S
PEED
to zero. Select S
TEER WITH
A
RROWS
command and press ENT ,
which turns on the simulator and returns you to the Map Page.
3. Begin navigating along the trail/route. (If you are close enough to the
first waypoint, the arrival alarm will usually go off as soon as naviga-
tion begins. Press
EXIT to clear the alarm.) When navigation starts,
press
↑ to increase speed to the desired setting.
4. Press EXIT to turn off the steering and speed boxes. The unit will now
automatically "steer" along the trail or route. When you arrive at your
"destination," cancel navigation as you normally do.
Tip:
You can pick any spot on the map to begin your simulation session
by using the Initialize GPS command. This makes your unit think
it's located at the position you select. See its entry following the en-
try for Hide GPS Features.
