Screen 2: PLANNING

To access PLANNING screen
(GPS MAP → PLANNING, via rocker pad nudge)
The PLANNING screen is accessed from the
MAP screen by moving the rocker pad away from
your current location (blue location icon).
The PLANNING screen displays a planning icon
as soon as you move the rocker pad away from
your current location. Instead of a blue dot, a small
black cross is shown in the centre. From the edges
of the black square planning icon radiate crosshairs
as an additional visual cue that you are in
NING mode rather than GPS MAP mode. The black
planning icon stays in place as you use the rocker
pad to move the map.
The POSITION INFO screen may be accessed
from the PLANNING screen by centre pressing the
rocker pad, or by pressing the bottom right Primary
Screens button.
When a map is loaded, the PLANNING
shows a central default location for that particular
map.
There is a data box overlay which shows;
• Grid reference – format options are given in GPS
Settings / Position Display Format
• Altitude for this location – elevation above sea
level, obtained from base maps (UK) or from map
cards (non-UK).
• Distance from your last known location, i.e. where
you last acquired a GPS lock. This is useful as a
'rangefinder'.
• Bearing from your last known location – format
options given in Compass Settings.
Note: This data overlay is not configurable by the user,
unlike the 2-Data Box and 4-Data Box layouts available
Software v3.13.11
on the GPS MAP screen.
When the crosshairs are moved over an OOI
or a route, an OOI/route indicator icon
GPS
appears at the bottom of the screen. Centre
pressing the rocker pad brings up further
information via the
window.
