Routes

A route is a series of waypoints, linked together in an ordered sequence,
that's used to mark a course of travel. You can visualize a route as a
string of beads: The beads represent waypoints and the string repre-
sents the course of travel connecting waypoint to waypoint.

The course from one waypoint to the next is a leg; routes are composed
of one or more legs. The legs of all GPS routes are based on straight
lines between waypoints.

A route provides the automatic capability to navigate through several
waypoints without having to reprogram the unit after arriving at each
waypoint. Once programmed into the GPS unit, a route provides the
option of navigating forward through the route waypoints or in reverse
order (you can even begin navigating in the middle of a route!)

Create and Save a Route
You can create a route by selecting existing waypoints from the way-
point list or you can set a series of route waypoints on the plotter with
cursor arrows and the Enter key. In this example, we'll create a route
from the plotter.
