BASIC OPERATION > CREATING AND USING ROUTES 5. Use the Find Menu to select a route waypoint from one of the Find Menu groups, and open the information page for the selected waypoint, city, exit, point of interest, and so on. 6. Highlight the Use button, and press Enter to add it to the route. 7. To add more points to the route, repeat steps 4 to 6. You can rename the route if you want. 8. Highlight the Navigate button, and press Enter to begin navigating. Methods of navigating to a destination • If you select the Go To button on the Waypoint Page or other Find Menu items, the eTrex creates a straight path (point to point) from your current location to that location. • If you select the Navigate button on a Route Page, the eTrex creates a route composed of several user waypoints or Find Menu items, with the last being your destination. It navigates directly from point to point. Before each turn in the route, a turn page shows a guidance 32 message and graphic of the turn. You can view the turns at any time by pressing up or down on the Rocker while the route is active. • Both navigation methods change when you select the Follow Roads option on the Routing Setup Page. Both Go To navigation and pointto-point routing become routes that allow you to navigate using roads. The routes use existing roadways (either those in the basemap or from downloaded detail mapping) to automatically calculate a route to your destination. Turns on roadways are added to the Active Route Page and are preceded by a guidance message with a graphic of the turn. If there are not enough roads at your location to calculate a route, a message appears. Navigating a Route After you create a route, you can begin navigation immediately or save it to the Saved Routes list. To navigate a saved route: 1. Press the Menu key twice to open the Main Menu. eTrex Venture Cx and Legend Cx Owner's Manual
