13.1 Activating Real Time Navigation (RTN)

Real Time Navigation (RTN) is a function in GPS TrackMaker® that facilitates the connection of a GPS to a
portable computer, transferring (in real time) the geodesic coordinates provided by the GPS. This allows you the
option to view your position in real time, on any maps you may have inserted.
Through the NMEA window it is also possible to activate the real time
navigation. Open the NMEA window through Interface menu, and then
configure the GPS to NMEA protocol and then press the <Start> button.
In RTN, the Toolbars are replaced by a window that shows the Navigation Console with LCD Panel, the
Speedometer, the Altimeter and the Compass:
To activate real time navigation in Garmin® Models, open the Garmin
Interface window through the Interfac e menu, and do the GPS
recognition through Product ID button and then press Real Time
Navigation button.
