Route Files
A route file can contain up to 20 routes, with each route having
up to 30 waypoints. Each route in the file begins with a route
header followed by a list of waypoints. Each route includes the
following information:
•
Route header (with route number)
•
List of waypoints, up to 30
Each waypoint listed includes the following information:
•
Waypoint identifier
•
Waypoint type
•
Degrees latitude to the nearest 1/1,000th of a minute
•
North or South hemisphere
•
Degrees longitude to the nearest 1/1,000th of a minute
•
East or West hemisphere
The route header contains the route number. When assigning
route numbers, use a number from 01 to 20. A route number
will be automatically assigned by the Apollo GPS if none is
entered.
When creating or editing a route file, waypoints may be entered
by waypoint identifier and type only. If only the waypoint
identifier and type is entered, the Apollo GPS will look up the
latitude and longitude in the internal data base when the route
file is sent to the unit.
