may want to try out some of Atlas's many advanced features. That brings us to
Section Four, Advanced Mode Operation. After we introduce the Advanced
Mode menus and submenus, the rest of the section contains
all of Atlas's
command functions, organized in alphabetical order.
When you come to a menu command on the Atlas screen, you can look it up in the
manual by skimming over the table of contents, just flipping through Section 3 or
scanning through the command portion of Section 4.
Atlas is ready to use right out of the box, but you can fine tune and customize
the operation with dozens of options. We describe how to use them in Section
5,
System Setup and GPS Setup Options . This section covers both Easy Mode
and Advanced Mode options.
Finally, in Section 6, we go into more detail on one of Atlas's most remarkable
capabilities — Searching. We'll introduce a couple of search examples in both
the Easy and Advanced mode sections, but there are so many map items you
can search for, we had to give this function it's own section in the manual! For
example, did you know Atlas can look up business phone numbers, functioning
as a virtual Yellow Pages? We’ll show you how in Section 6.
Now, if you're into the fine details, glance over the next segment on
specifications to see just how much GPS power you hold in your hand. It's
important to
us but, if you don't care how many waypoints Atlas can store or
how long the batteries last, skip ahead to important information on how Atlas
works, on page 10.
Note! All references in this manual are made in English, which is the default
setting of the Atlas’s operative system. You can select other languages in the
MENU when in “Advanced Mode”.
