Using the Map Page to Navigate
The Map Page provides graphic display for the four
methods of eMap navigation:
Goto - A direct path to a map location, (waypoint, city,
address, etc.)
Track - A previous path of travel that has been stored
(logged) in the eMap. A Track allows you to repeat a
path or to return to your starting point on the same path
using the GARMIN TracBack
Route - A path to a destination consisting of landmarks
along the way (waypoints, cities, highway exits, points
of interest, intersections, etc.)
Travel when not on a Goto, Track or Route - This is
best described as travel without entering a destination
in the eMap. The Map Page displays your real time
movement as you travel with the unit turned on and
receiving satellites. It can be saved (logged) as a Track.

Data Fields

Several Data Fields support the Map Page and consist of
the following elements.
Direction Fields
There are three types of direction fields, each providing
direction information dependent on whether you are
stopped while navigating, navigating to a destination, or
traveling without a recorded destination.
Direction To Go (N. S. E. W.) - Cardinal letters
indicate the direction to go when starting out or to
resume after having stopped while on an active Goto,
Track or Route. These letters can be changed to degrees.
Refer to page 33.
Direction To Go (Arrow) - An arrow that points to the
direction you should be traveling when moving on an
active Goto, Track or Route.
Compass - A compass that shows the direction you are
moving when not on a an active Goto, Track or Route.
