Simulator Mode
The GPSMAP 496 contains a Simulator Mode. Simulator Mode is
helpful for practicing with the unit indoors or when no satellite or
XM signals are available or if either antenna is not connected. All
waypoints and routes created in Simulator Mode are retained in
memory for future use. The following section describes how to use
Simulator Mode and walks you through some basic navigation using
the simulator.
NOTE: Do not attempt to navigate using Simulator Mode. When
the unit is set to Simulator Mode, the GPS receiver is turned off.
Any Satellite Signal Strength Bars shown are only simulations
and do not represent the strength of actual satellite signals.
