Routes
route, you will be updated with a new course to follow. This updating of your route will also occur during
multi-leg routes so you always know which way you need to go.
Creating a GOTO Route from the Map Cursor
This will create a GOTO route to a point on the map that you have indicated by moving the crosshair cursor on
the Map screen.
1.
While viewing the Map screen, use the Arrow joystick causing the eXplorist to go into Cursor mode.
2.
Continue using the Arrow joystick to move the crosshair cursor to a point on the map that represents
where you want to go to.
3.
Press GOTO.
4.
If a GOTO is active, you will be asked to deactivate it and create a new GOTO route. Highlight Yes and
press ENTER to overwrite the existing GOTO. You are then asked if you want to create a new GOTO
route. Highlight Yes and press ENTER.
Confirm that you want to create a GOTO from the current cursor position. Highlight Yes.
5.
(If you highlight No and press ENTER, the eXplorist assumes that you still want to create a GOTO, just
not to the current cursor position. The POI database screen will be displayed so you can search the
database for the POI you want to use as the destination.)
6.
Press ENTER.
After pressing ENTER, the last viewed navigation screen will be displayed, updated as needed to provide
information about the GOTO route you have created. On the Map screen, a line will be drawn representing the
GOTO route. The Compass screen will change to display the name of the POI used as the destination in the
screen header bar and an icon representing the destination outside the compass diameter.
Creating a GOTO Route to a Map Object
This will create a GOTO route to a map object (city, highway, user POI, etc.) that you have indicated by moving
the crosshair cursor on the Map screen over the map object.
1.
While viewing the Map screen, use the Arrow joystick causing the eXplorist to go into Cursor mode.
2.
Continue using the Arrow joystick to move the crosshair cursor to the map object that you want to go to.
3.
Press ENTER.
4.
Use the Arrow joystick to highlight the map object that you want to use as the GOTO. (Some areas of
the map may have multiple map objects in the same location.)
5.
Press ENTER.
Use the Arrow joystick to highlight Goto.
6.
7.
Press ENTER.
If a GOTO is active, you will be asked to deactivate it and create a new GOTO route. Highlight Yes and
8.
press ENTER.
After pressing ENTER, the last viewed navigation screen will be displayed, updated as needed to provide
information about the GOTO route you have created. On the Map screen, a line will be drawn representing the
GOTO route. The Compass screen will change to display the name of the POI used as the destination in the
screen header bar and an icon representing the destination outside the compass diameter.
