Creating a GOTO Route from the Map Cursor

This will create a GOTO route to a point on the map that you have indicated by moving the
crosshair cursor on the

Map

screen.

1.

While viewing the

Map

screen, use the Arrow joystick, causing the eXplorist to go

into Cursor mode.

2.

Continue using the Arrow joystick to move the crosshair cursor to a point on the
map that represents where you want to go.

3.

Press GOTO.

4.

If a GOTO is active, you will be asked to deactivate it and create a new GOTO route.
Highlight

Yes and press ENTER to overwrite the existing GOTO. You are then

asked whether you want to create a new GOTO route. Highlight

Yes and press

ENTER.

5.

Confirm that you want to create a GOTO from the current
cursor position. Highlight

Yes.

(If you highlight

No and press ENTER, the eXplorist assumes

that you still want to create a GOTO, just not to the current
cursor position. The POI database screen will be displayed
so you can search the database for the POI you want to use
as the destination.)

6.

Press ENTER.

After you press ENTER, the last viewed navigation screen will be displayed, updated as
needed to provide information about the GOTO route you have created. On the

Map

screen, a

line will be drawn representing the GOTO route. The

Compass

screen will change to display

the name of the POI used as the destination in the screen header bar and an icon
representing the destination outside the compass diameter.
