[. . . ] Press P to return to the Menu Page. After a route has been entered in the GPS 40, it can be activated in its defined sequence or inverted from the route definition page. The process of activating or inverting a stored route takes a storage route (routes 1-19) and copies it into the active route (route 0) for navigation. The storage route is now no longer needed and will be retained in its original format under its existing route number. This system allows you to have an active route that you may edit during navigation and save as an entirely new route from the original. You will have to copy the active route to an unused storage route to save it, since new route activation overwrites route 0. Select the route definition page and press the E key to activate the route number field. Move the field highlight to the `act' field and press E. Inverting a route allows you to navigate route legs in reverse order, without editing the original route. Follow the same steps as above, but select the `inv' command field and press the E key. 30 Reference Once a route has been activated, the Active Route Page will appear, displaying the waypoint sequence of your route with the estimated time enroute (ETE) at your present speed and distance to each waypoint. As long as you are navigating an active route, the Active Route Page will become part of the main page sequence of the unit. The Active Route Page will also allow you to change the ETE field to display desired track (DTK) or estimated time of arrival (ETA) for each leg. Use the U or D keys to select `DTK' or `ETA' and press the E key. Active Route Page To invert a route from the Active Route Page: 1. Press the U key once to move the field highlight to the `invert' field. Press the E key to invert the route. To clear the active route from the Active Route Page and stop route navigation: 1. Press the E key to clear the active route. Once a route has been created and stored in the GPS 40, it can be edited at any time, even if it is the active route. To edit a route from the Active Route Page or the route submenu page: 1. Use the U and D keys to select the waypoint you want to edit and press E. An on-screen menu of editing choices will appear, with options for reviewing, inserting, deleting or changing the waypoint field highlighted. Use the U and D arrow keys to select among the editing choices. 31 Reference Editing Routes and On-Route GOTOs Once you've selected a waypoint from the route list, choose a menu function: 1. To review the definition page for the waypoint, highlight the `review' field and press E. To add a new waypoint that precedes the selected waypoint, highlight the `insert' field and press the E key. To remove the selected waypoint, highlight the `remove' field and press the E key. To replace the selected waypoint with a new waypoint, highlight the `change' field and press the E key. Use the route waypoint editing instructions described earlier (see page 29) for creating a route to complete your changes.
