orange locator circle which is now the centre
of the screen, eg. position the orange circle
at a target destination and follow progress
of the blue circle as you walk towards the
target.
Long range:
On moving the joystick, the GPS Map screen
switches to PLANNING. The data overlay
includes the distance from where you last
had GPS lock. This is also useful in a variety
of scenarios, eg. showing distance to the
next waypoint, or in the car, distance to the
next motorway services.
• Use a GoTo point as a rangender: Set
a GoTo point on your destination (section
8.00). Press ‘Lock to GPS’ (front left button)
to return to the GPS Map screen. Select a
data box overlay (section 3.00) and select
GoTo Dist (section 5.04a). The data overlay
will now show a straight line distance from
your current location to the GoTo point.
• It can be useful to combine the advantages
of screensave mode (‘automatic screen
turn off’, section 5.01) with the keypad lock
(section 2.08). Whilst the unit is stowed
the screen cannot be activated (even if the
power button is pressed it will be activated
only for the preset time until the screen
switches off). To reactivate the unit, press
the power button and select unlock.
Remote rangender: ‘Marker’
This function allows you to nd the distance
between two points. From either GoTo and
Marker Menu (section 10.00) or POSITION
INFO (section 8.00), set a marker (red ag)
and then move the joystick; a red line is
drawn from the marker to the point selected.
The overlay shows the grid ref and altitude
of the point selected, plus the distance and
bearing to the point.
