Waypoints, Routes <strong>and</strong> Tracks<br />

Waypoints are stored positions that allow you to mark areas of interest or<br />

navigation points. Your 900 Series can store up to 3000 waypoints.<br />

Waypoints, Routes <strong>and</strong> Tracks<br />

Routes link two or more waypoints together to create a path for navigation,<br />

<strong>and</strong> are used in trip planning. You can link individual waypoints together by<br />

using the GOTO key. A route represents your intended navigation <strong>and</strong> shows<br />

the shortest path from each waypoint to the next. As you travel a route,<br />

staying on the route line is the most efficient way to get to your destination,<br />

although you should always look out for obstacles not shown on the chart.<br />

Your 900 Series can store up to 50 routes that can each contain up to 50<br />

waypoints.<br />

Tracks consist of detailed position history, <strong>and</strong> are displayed as a<br />

breadcrumb trail of trackpoints. The Current Track shows the position history<br />

since the unit was powered up (maximum of 20,000 trackpoints displayed).<br />

You can clear the Current Track or save it at any time. Your 900 Series can<br />

store up to 50 saved tracks, each containing 20,000 trackpoints. The current<br />

track represents your actual path so far.<br />
