OUTES
Routes link two or more waypoints together to create a path for navigation. A route represents your intended navigation and shows
the shortest path from each data point to the next. The distance between each waypoint is a route leg. You can save 47 routes (with
50 waypoints each) to the control head.
WARNING! You should always be aware of your surroundings and watch for any potential obstacles.
