Routes are the least understood and one of

the most important functions of a GPS

receiver. The better you understand routes

and how to use them, the more enjoyment

you will receive from using your eXplorist.

The simpiest and most common form of a

route is a

GOTO route. A GOTO route is a

one-leg route with a starting point (your

present position) and a destination (a POI

you select). This route is useful when you

want to go to a specific preloaded or user-

entered POI.

The next type of a route is a

multi-leg route. The easiest way to understand multi-leg routes

is to know that they are GOTO routes stuck together. If a GOTO route is from A to B then a

multi-leg route goes from A to B, B to C, C to D, and so on. (Using the term multi-leg is

somewhat misleading because it can be a single-leg route; but these types of routes are

rarely used as a one-leg routes, a GOTO route would be used instead.) An advantage of a

multi-leg route is that it can be saved in the eXplorist’s memory to be activated and used

over and over.

A third type of route is a

backtrack route. (The creation of backtrack routes is not described

in this section of the manual because these routes are part of the Track Log functions of the

eXplorist.) As you travel the eXplorist records your track. Creating a backtrack route uses

this track information and creates a multi-leg route, in reverse order, enabling you to

navigate back to where you started.

GOTO Routes

A GOTO route is the most commonly used form of a route in your eXplorist. The creation of

a GOTO route is no harder than pressing the GOTO button and searching in the POI database

for the destination POI.

Features of a GOTO route:

• A straight line from your present position to a selected POI.

• GOTO routes cannot be saved.

• GOTO routes are erased when the eXplorist is turned off.

• GOTO routes can be created by pressing the

GOTO button and selecting the destination

POI from the POI database.

• GOTO routes can also be created in the Cursor mode of the

Map screen.
