Using a Route

Once you have set up or selected a route, you can perform the
following tasks:
• Follow or "initiate" the route (that is, start tracking towards the first
waypoint)
• Retrace a route by following it in reverse order
• Advance to the next leg of the route
• Erase the route
You can also edit the route, even if it is active, as described above.

one unit is also displayed on the second unit, where it will always
appear as Route 00. You can use the Route menu options on the
second unit to control the route tracking on the first unit.
