Simulating Trail or Route Navigation

In Simulator mode, your unit can automatically follow a trail or route
without manual steering if you use these steps:
1. From the Map Page, go to the simulator menu. Pick a
at or near the beginning of your trail/route. Enter an approximate
TION
(shown in compass degrees) that will point you toward the start
T
RACK
of the trail/route.
2. Set
to zero. Select
S
PEED
which turns on the simulator and returns you to the Map Page.
3. Begin navigating along the trail/route. If you are close enough to the
first waypoint, the arrival alarm will usually go off as soon as naviga-
tion begins. Press
press ↑ to increase speed to the desired setting.
4. Press
to turn off the steering and speed boxes. The unit will now
EXIT
automatically "steer" along the trail or route. When you arrive at your
"destination," cancel navigation as you normally do.
Tip:
You can pick any spot on the map to begin your simulation session
by using the Initialize GPS command. This makes your unit think
it's located at the position you select.

Initialize GPS

This command is used when you are practicing in simulator mode. (See
the entry in this section for GPS Simulator.) In simulator mode, this
command makes the unit operate as if it is sitting someplace other
than its actual location. So, you and your unit could be located in Kan-
sas City, but easily practice navigating in the ocean off Islamorada,
Florida.
