Planning Routes
After you create a route, you can enter information on the Plan Route window
such as your speed, departure time, fuel flow, and departure date so your
GPSMAP 2206/2210 can estimate information about your trip.
To plan your route:
1. Press the
Plan
soft key on the Route list to open the Plan Route window.
2. Enter planning data for speed and fuel flow. You can also enter the date
and time of your departure. As you enter planning information, the fields
on the Route list are automatically calculated.
NOTE:
Fuel flow rates are measured in units per hour. System setting changes
for units of measure (statute, nautical, or metric) do not affect the fuel flow
measure. You should enter fuel flow rates based on available information for
your boat (operators manual, performance specifications) and note the units of
measure (gallons, liters, and so on).
