Press when route is finished, unless you have
‘closed’ the route.
If there is an SD card in the unit and it is not write-
protected, by default the route will go into the SD
Card folder. If there is no SD card in the unit, by
default the route will go into the Internal Storage
folder.
You can create route folders using SatSYNC. To
create a new route in an existing folder, you will
need to select the folder in the RoutesMenu and
press CreateNewRoute from there.
Note: Folders are only visible if they contain a minimum
of one route or OOI.
The AddWaypoint button has 3 functions:
1. To add a waypoint.
2. To click on an existing waypoint and drag it to
another location.
3. To close the route (i.e. connect the last waypoint
to the start point) if the last waypoint is very close
to the start waypoint.
The centre cross turns green inside the orange
location icon when you are on the CREATEROUTE
screen to indicate you are ready to add waypoints.
Place waypoints wherever your planned route
changes direction. Waypoints are shown as green
dots. As waypoints are laid down, a yellow/blue
highlighted route is created. To remove waypoints,
position the green cross over a waypoint and press
the RemoveWaypoint button.
The start point of a route has an icon with a forward
arrowhead in a yellow bubble. The end of a route
has an icon with a chequered flag in a yellow bubble.
Press Done or press the lower left button to return
to the ROUTESMENU
.
To view the route, highlight it and press
View; a
route map plus route length is shown.
