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. Use the
command to pick a starting position at or near the beginning of your
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

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 lo-
cated at the position you select. See the following entry for details.

Initialize GPS

This command is handy when you are practicing in simulator mode. (See
the previous entry 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 Kansas City, but eas-
ily practice navigating in the ocean off Islamorada, Florida.
