Garmin GPS 40 - Manual (Page 36)

To clear a route from memory:
1. Press E to begin entry of the route number.
2. Enter the route number and press E .
3. Select the ‘clear’ field and press E .
The clear route warning will appear, asking you
to confirm that you want to remove all waypoints
from the route.
1. Highlight the ‘yes’ field with the L key.
2. Press E to confirm your action.
3. Press P to return to the Menu Page.
After a route has been entered in the GPS 40, it
can be activated in its defined sequence or invert-
ed from the route definition page. The process of
activating or inverting a stored route takes a stor-
age route (routes 1-19) and copies it into the active
route (route 0) for navigation. The storage route is
now no longer needed and will be retained in its
original format under its existing route number.
This system allows you to have an active route
that you may edit during navigation and save as an
entirely new route from the original. You will have
to copy the active route to an unused storage route
to save it, since new route activation overwrites
route 0. To activate a route:
1. Select the route definition page and press the
E key to activate the route number field.
2. Enter the route number to be activated and
press the E key.
3. Move the field highlight to the ‘act’ field and
press E .
Inverting a route allows you to navigate route
legs in reverse order, without editing the original
route. To activate a route in inverted order:
1. Follow the same steps as above, but select the
‘inv’ command field and press the E key.
