When a GOTO waypoint is selected press LEFT or RIGHT to scroll between the selected GOTO waypoint and *HOME*. Figure 21 7. 6-2 SETTINGS There are six possible settings related to the GPS function. GOTO WAYPOINT Setting To select a waypoint to navigate towards press YES. Use UP and DOWN to scroll through waypoints in alphabetical order starting with the waypoint last entered. GOTO NAV STARTED will be displayed, and Multi-Navigator will return to GPS function. ODOMETER / MAX SPD Setting Press YES to display the maximum speed and total distance traveled recorded. CANCEL GOTO or DELETE *HOME* Setting This function is available only when a GOTO waypoint or a *HOME* position has been stored and no route is active. CANCEL ROUTE Setting This function is available only when a route has been stored and activated. Reactivate the route or select a new route in the Route menu, section 8. 2. GOTO LEG Setting This function is available only when a route has been stored and activated, section 8. 2. In this function it is possible to manually select a leg to travel towards. If you wish to navigate using another leg press scroll to the leg with UP and DOWN. 7. 7 -- COMPASS SIDE FUNCTIONS & SETTINGS Press the dedicated COMPASS button in any other function to view the TrueMagnetic compass. This internal electronic compass will provide directions without moving. A standard GPS unit does not have this function, and requires motion and excess battery usage for any directional navigation. 12 The Multi-Navigator also has the unique feature that allows access to the TrueMagnetic COMPASS when the unit is off. 7. 7-1 SIDE FUNCTIONS There is one side function related to the compass function. When no waypoint or *HOME* is selected there will be no side function. The bearing, distance and a cardinal direction (SSW -- South Southwest) are also displayed. When a GOTO waypoint is selected it is indicated at the top of the Compass Navigation screen with the bearing and the cardinal direction below. In Figure 23 the MOUNTAIN waypoint is to the left at a distance of 3. 417 miles. ONLY When Waypoint or HOME is selected COMPASS Main Function Figure 22 Navigation Side Function Figure 23 Figure 24 A normal magnetic compass can be accessed as a side function using LEFT or RIGHT. When *HOME* is selected in the StraightHome function BACK is displayed just above *HOME* (Fig. It is possible to scroll between a selected GOTO waypoint and *HOME* by pressing LEFT or RIGHT. [. . . ] At most your receiver can view twelve satellites at any one time due to the location of the satellites relative to the Earth. A waypoint is stored complete with latitude, longitude, altitude (based an barometric pressure), time and date along with an eight character name. ACQUISITION ­ When the GPS receiver is collecting satellite data, but has not yet calculated a position. TRACKING - When the GPS receiver collects satellite data, has calculated a position, and is continuing to keep track of acquired satellites. [. . . ]
