Going To a Waypoint (continued)
The GPS 126/128' s Highway Page provides graphic
steering guidance to a destination, with an emphasis on
a straight-line course to the desired waypoint and the
distance and direction you are off course. The bearing
and distance to a waypoint–along with your current
track and speed, are displayed at the top of the screen,
with two user-selectable fields shown at the bottom.
As you head toward your destination, the middle
section of the screen provides visual guidance to your
waypoint on a moving graphic "highway". The pointer
just below the CDI scale always points to your selected
waypoint relative to the direction you are moving.
Your present position is represented by the diamond
in the center of the course deviation scale. The line
down the middle of the highway represents your
desired track. As you navigate toward a waypoint, the
highway will actually move, indicating the direction
you're off course, relative to the position diamond on
the CDI scale. To stay on course, simply steer toward
the center of the highway.
While navigating, you may decide to use the
Compass Page (see picture above left) instead of the
Highway Page.
To select the Compass Page:
1. While viewing the Highway Page, press
The Compass Page will now become the displayed
navigation page. This page provides a directional point-
er to your destination by using a rotating compass dis-
play to show direction of travel. It provides better steer-
ing guidance at slower speeds for travel with many
directional changes.
To switch back to the Highway Page, press ENTER
twice.
