DeLorme Earthmate GPS PN-30 - Manual (Page 48)

46
The Routes Page displays a list of routes on the PN-Series
GPS—routes you have created on the device and routes
you have sent to the device using a DeLorme mapping
application. Using DeLorme Topo North America
™ or
XMap ® to create pre-planned routes in advance on the
desktop for transfer to the device lets you make sure to
take exactly the road route you want and is also the best
way to create long routes.
To open the Routes Page, from any page go to MENU >
Routes. If you have added the Routes Page to the PAGE
button order, it is no longer available on menus. Press
the PAGE button until it appears.
In the routes list, hiking (direct) routes have a straight
yellow line icon and driving routes have a curved blue line
icon. The active route name appears in bold text.
Edit Route Settings
Use route settings to determine the route calculation
method, back on track options, and hiking route options.
From the Routes Page, go to MENU >
Edit Route Settings.
Select the route setting options.
 Calculation Method–Determines the option (Hike
or Drive) that is enabled when you create a route and
is the default method when viewing a route that has
not been calculated. Select Hiking or Driving.
 Back on Track (Hiking) / Back on Track (Driving)–
Sets the option for informing you that you are off
course and showing the way back to the route. When
the route recalculates, the route highlight is cleared
from the start to the current GPS location. The original
route is not modified; you can select it again to restore
it. For either Hiking or Driving, select Off if you do not
want to use the Back on Track feature.
