After you've learned the basics (or if you already have some GPS expe-
rience), you may want to try out some of the GlobalMap Baja 480c's
many advanced navigation features. That brings us to Section 4,
Ad-
vanced GPS Operations . This section contains the rest of the unit's GPS
command functions, organized in alphabetical order.
When you come to a GPS menu command on the GlobalMap Baja 480c's
screen, you can look it up in the manual by skimming over the table of con-
tents, just flipping through Section 3 or scanning through the command
portion of Section 4.
This unit is ready to use right out of the box, but you can fine tune and cus-
tomize its operation with dozens of options. We describe how to use general
system options along with GPS options in Section 5,
System Setup and
GPS Setup Options . Section 5 is organized in alphabetical order .
In Section 6, we go into more detail on one of the GlobalMap Baja
480c's most remarkable capabilities — Searching. We'll introduce a
search example in the Basic GPS Operation section, but there are so
many map items you can search for, we had to give this function its
own section in the manual! For example, did you know this unit can
look up business phone numbers, functioning as a virtual Yellow
Pages? We’ll show you how in Section 6.
Finally, in Section 7, we offer Supplemental Material , including a list of
the GPS datums used, warranties and customer service information.
Now, if you're into the fine details, glance over the next segment on speci-
fications to see just how much GPS power your GlobalMap Baja 480c con-
tains. It's important to
us (and our power users), but, if you don't care how
many watts of power the unit has, or how many waypoints it can store,
skip ahead to important information on how our GPS works, on page 4.
