midway through the route, simply go back to the Waypoint window, right-click or tap-and-hold on

Using the Simulator
Here are several helpful tips and reminders to keep in mind when using the Simulator:
· Speed - You can adjust the speed of the Simulator by using the letters " I " and " O " on the keyboard
( I is for increasing the speed and O is for decreasing the speed). To display your speed, you can
choose to have a corner window displaying this information. Review the Display section to see how
to add corner information windows.
· The pan map function is available when North Up is enabled. In order for North Up to be enabled,
you will either need to disable Head Up mode. Do so by selecting View > Preferences >
Navigation , ( Tools > Preferences > Navigation tab on the PDA) and deselecting Head Up. North
up will also be enabled when the zoom scale is 5000ft or more.
· Zoom In / Zoom Out - You can zoom in or zoom out by making a box on the screen. Do this by
clicking and dragging the mouse or stylus. Once the box is made:
1. Clicking outside of the box = Zoom Out
2. Clicking inside of the box = Zoom In
The buttons on the Top Menu are disabled when
using the Simulator. Use the drag box to zoom.
