Creating a Direct Route on a Pocket PC
With Street Atlas USA
®
Handheld you can create direct routes which you can follow along
when connected to a GPS device.
Only one route can display on the map at a time. A route displays on the map as it is being
drawn and continues to display once it is saved. When you create a second route and save
the route file, the map centers on the start point of the new route and the previous route is
cleared from the map. You must end tracking before creating a new route.
To Create a Direct Route
Use the following steps to create a direct route on your Pocket PC handheld.
1. Tap Tools and then tap Create Direct Rte.
The Direct Route icon displays in the upper-right corner of the map view screen and
the Erase icon displays in the upper-left corner of the map view screen.
2. Tap the locations on the map where you want to place each point in the route. Each
time you tap the map while in Direct Route mode, a point is placed on the map and a
line segment displays between the points. Tap the Direct Route icon when you have
finished placing all of your points.
Notes
• If you have placed a point on the route incorrectly, tap the Erase icon. The
last point placed, as well as the line segment between it and the previous
point, is cleared. Clear a whole route by tapping the Erase icon until all
points and line segments are cleared.
• If you need to pan the map to place another route point, drag the map to the
appropriate location and tap the map view screen at the desired location to
place the next point and line segment in the route.
AND/OR
Tap the Direct Route icon and enter your route information using one/all of the four
available choices:
• From the Add list box, tap Find to search for points and to display the Find
screen. Enter the name for a particular map feature and conduct a search for
the feature. Select the feature from the Find Results screen to add to your
route and then tap Select. The selected feature is added to the route. For
more information on using the Find feature, see Finding Map Features.
• From the Add list box, tap Wpts to use existing waypoints and to display the
Wpt List screen. Select the waypoint from the list and then tap Select. The
selected waypoint is added to the route. For information on adding waypoints,
see Adding Waypoints.
• From the Add list box, tap Contacts Entry to use a contact as a point in your
route. Select the contacts entry from the list and then tap Select. The
selected contacts entry is added to the route.
• From the Add list box, tap Screen Center to use the current screen center
as a point in your route. Screen Center points are labeled as "Screen Center"
when information for that location is unavailable.
3. Once you have placed all of your route points, you can reorder the points, delete a
point, or add find search points, waypoints, contacts, and/or your screen center to
your route:
