When you are traveling, the map will automatically move as you move.
This keeps your current location roughly centered on-screen. You can
manually pan or scroll the map north, south, east or west by using the
arrow keys, which launch the cross-hair map cursor. This allows you to
look at map places other than your current position. To clear the cur-
sor, press
EXIT
, which jumps the map back to your current position or
last known position.
Tip:
Use the cursor to determine the distance from your current position
(or last known position, when working indoors) to any map object or
location. Use the arrow keys to position the cursor over an object or
location. The distance, measured in a straight line, appears in the
popup data box. Press
EXIT
to clear the cursor.
The selected airport to the northwest is 4.2 miles away.
Selecting Any Map Item With the Cursor
1. Use the zoom keys and the arrow keys to move around the map and
find the item you wish to select.
2. Use the arrow keys and center the cursor cross-hair on the desired ob-
ject. On most items, a pop-up box will give the name of the selected item.
Tip:
This unit has a Cursor Undo feature that lets you instantly return
to the previous location you were looking at without scrolling. It
works like this: Use the cursor (arrow keys) to scroll the map to
some far away location or waypoint. Press
EXIT
to clear the cursor
and jump back to your current position on the map. When you want
to take another peek at that distant place, just press
EXIT
again.
