Routes Definition Page
The GPSCOM 170 lets you create and store up to 20
routes of 30 waypoints each. Routes are created, copied
and edited through the route definition page, which is
accessed through the menu page.
To select the route definition page:
1. Press
P
until the menu page appears.
2. Highlight the ‘ROUTES’ option.
3. Press
E
to display the route definition page.
4. To return to the menu page, press
P
.
The route number field is displayed at the top of the
page, with a 16-character user comment below. If no user
comment is entered, the field will display the first and last
waypoint in the route. The waypoint list in the middle of
the page accepts up to 30 waypoints for each route, with
fields for desired track and distance between legs. The
total distance of the route is indicated below the
waypoint list.
The bottom of the route definition page features sev-
eral function fields which let you copy, clear, invert or
activate the displayed route. Routes 1-19 are used as stor-
age routes, with route 0 always serving as the active route
you are navigating. If you want to save a route currently
in route 0, be sure to copy it to another open route, as it
will be overwritten by the next route activation.
