GoTo and Marker

16.1 GoTo and Marker Overview

(GPS MAP → MAIN MENU → GoTo and
Marker)
GoTo point:
A set point that acts as a target.
Once you have activated a GoTo point, a straight
line from your current location and GoTo point (or
route) will appear. This is useful in situations when
you do not know where you are going, i.e. you have
no determined route. Access various statistics from
the data box options using this feature, e.g. GoTo
Distance, GoTo ETA, GoTo Bearing etc.
Marker:
A red flag (reference point) on the map
from which the distance and bearing to any other
point on the map can be measured. You are not able
to follow a Marker and it is only available in Planning
mode. Use the joystick to move the planning circle
in the desired direction to calculate the straight line
distance or bearing.
The menu options are as follows:
• GoTo – Set By Coords
• GoTo – Route*
• Marker – Set By Coords
*Available once a GoTo point has been set.
Note: GoTo and Marker function for setting by postcode
are available for some units sold in the UK.
Clear Marker and GoTo – Clear buttons are
active once a point/marker has been set.
