Simulating Trail or Route Navigation
In Simulator mode, your unit can automatically follow a trail or route
without manual steering if you use these steps:
1. From the Map Page, go to the simulator menu. Pick a
S
TARTING
P
OSI-
TION
at or near the beginning of your trail/route. Enter an approximate
T
RACK
(shown in compass degrees) that will point you toward the start
of the trail/route.
2. Set
S
PEED
to zero. Select
S
TEER WITH
A
RROWS
command and press
ENT
,
which turns on the simulator and returns you to the Map Page.
3. Begin navigating along the trail/route. (If you are close enough to the
first waypoint, the arrival alarm will usually go off as soon as naviga-
tion begins. Press
EXIT
to clear the alarm.) When navigation starts,
press
↑
to increase speed to the desired setting.
4. Press
EXIT
to turn off the steering and speed boxes. The unit will now
automatically "steer" along the trail or route. When you arrive at your
"destination," cancel navigation as you normally do.
Tip:
You can pick any spot on the map to begin your simulation session
by using the Initialize GPS command. This makes your unit think
it's located at the position you select. See its entry following the en-
try for
Hide GPS Features .
Initialize GPS
This command is handy when you are practicing in simulator mode. (See
the entry in this section for
GPS Simulator .) In simulator mode, this
command makes the unit operate as if it is sitting someplace other than
its actual location. So, you and your unit could be located in Kansas City,
but easily practice navigating in the ocean off Islamorada, Florida.

2. A message appears, telling you to move the cursor near the desired
location and press

. When the message automatically clears, follow
the message instructions.
3. In a moment, your present position marker arrow appears on the
map in the location you selected with the cursor. The unit will consider
that spot as its last known position until changed by either a live satel-
lite lock-on or a new simulator location.
