Highway Page

Whenever a Go To, TracBack, or Route is activated, Highway page
provides digital and graphic steering guidance to the destination. The
right side of the Highway page features user-selectable data fields that
display useful navigation information. A compass ribbon is displayed
at the top of the page to show your current heading along with a dark,
vertical bar which indicates the bearing to your course. To stay on
course, steer towards the dark, vertical indicator (or arrows) until it
lines up with the lighter gray bar in the middle. The bottom section
of the screen provides visual guidance to the waypoint on a graphic
highway display. The line down the center of the highway represents
your heading.
As you head toward your destination, the highway perspective moves
to indicate your progress to the waypoint and which direction you
should steer to stay on course. If you are navigating a route, the
Highway page shows each route waypoint in sequence connected
by a black road with a white line down the middle, which is your
desired track line. Nearby waypoints not in the active route can also
be displayed. The highway perspective range may also be zoomed in
or out to display a larger or smaller view of the highway. Five settings
are available from 1X to 16X, with a default setting of 8X. Press the
IN or OUT key to change the highway perspective range.
