Activating a Route
Any route that you have created can be activated and used to navigate on. Once a route has been
activated, the NAV Companion will navigate you to all of the waypoints in the route in the order that
you have saved them. Once the NAV Companion has computed that you have arrived at a waypoint
in the route it will automatically begin navigating you to the next waypoint in the route.
To Activate a Route
1.
From any screen, tap the menu icon on the Palm organizer.
2.
From the Tools Menu, tap on
Activate Route…
3.
A list of routes stored is displayed. Tap on the route you want to go to. It may be necessary
to use the scroll bars at the right of the list to view all of the available routes.
4.
If you want an alarm to sound when you have arrived at the destination of each leg and at the
final destination of the route, tap the alarm box in the lower right corner.
5.
Tap on the
“
OK
”
button at the bottom of the display.
You are returned to the last screen viewed. If you view the Speed, Plot or Nav2 screen you will
notice that at the top of the window the black header now displays
“
TO: <waypoint name>
”
. All of the
data and navigational information is now based on your present position and what is necessary to
arrive at the destination.
Note:
Activating a route will override any GOTO or route that was active.
