ROUTES
A route gives you the ability to navigate to several
waypoints without having to reprogram the unit after
arriving at each one. A route consists of two or more
waypoints. When you start on a route, the AccuNav
Sport™ shows navigation information to the first way-
point in the route. When you reach the first waypoint,
(signalled by the Arrival Alarm), the AccuNav Sport™
automatically sequences to the next waypoint. Naviga-
tion information is shown to this waypoint and the
process repeats. When you reach the last waypoint in a
route, the arrival alarm sounds until you turn it off. At this
point you should use the "Cancel Navigation" feature to
stop the AccuNav Sport™ from showing navigation data
to the last waypoint in the route. Otherwise, it will
continue to navigate to that waypoint, even if it's turned
off and on again. There are four steps required to create and follow a
route. First, you must create and name the route. Next,
select the waypoints used in the route. Then determine
the starting waypoint. Next, tell the unit to follow the
route. Finally, the unit will ask you if you wish to run the
route forward or backward. After these steps are com-
pleted, the AccuNav Sport™ will start showing naviga-
tion data to the first waypoint on the route.
NOTE: The plotter shows all of the waypoints on a
recalled route connected by a dotted line.
