Appendix D - GPS Routes

The system can support up to 5 routes for route tracking. The routes are defined as a series of zones in an INI
file named etc\routes.ini.
Each zone consists of a zone name, the zone radius and two endpoints specified in GPS format latitude &
longitude.
GPS format bearings are specified as degrees and decimal minutes and can be obtained from Autoroute or
similar programs.
