There are many ways to create routes on the Earthmate PN-40. You can create a route:
• From your current GPS location to a waypoint or geocache.
• From your current GPS location to a Find search result.
• Between two waypoints.
• Between two Find search results.
• Between a waypoint and a Find search result.
Once you have created a route, you can view the route and its directions, edit the route, delete the
route, and more. Routes are listed in order of use or creation; the most recent route is listed first.
