6.00 PLANNING Screen
(GPS MAP →
PLANNING)
The
PLANNING
screen is accessed from
the
GPS MAP
screen by moving the joystick
away from your current location (blue location
icon).
The
PLANNING
screen displays a
planning
icon
(orange circle with a small black cross)
as soon as you move the joystick away from
your current location. Instead of a blue dot,
a small black cross is shown in the center.
From the edges of the orange planning icon
radiate crosshairs as an additional visual cue
that you are in
PLANNING
mode rather than
GPS MAP
mode. The orange planning icon
stays in place as you use the joystick to move
the map.
The
POSITION INFO
screen
(section 10.00)
may be accessed from the
PLANNING
screen by center pressing the joystick.
When a map is loaded, the
PLANNING
screen shows a central default location for
that particular map.
There is a data box overlay which shows;
• Grid reference – format options are given
in
GPS Settings
(
section 7.09
Position
Display Format
option).
• Altitude for this location
–
elevation above
sea level, obtained from base maps (UK) or
from map cards (non-UK).
• Distance from your last known location, i.e.
where you last acquired a GPS lock. This is
useful as a ‘rangefinder’.
• Bearing from your last known location –
format options given in
Compass Settings
,
(
section 7.12
Compass Display).
Note: This data overlay is not configurable by
the user, unlike the 2-Data Box and 4-Data
Box layouts available on the
GPS MAP
screen (section 5.00).
When the crosshairs are moved over an OOI
or a route, an OOI/route indicator icon
appears at the bottom of the screen. Center
pressing the joystick brings up further
information via the
'Choose Information
Type'
window
(section 11.00)
.
