Basic Operation A GOTO route is simply a route with a start point and a single destination point; I am here and I want to go to there. All that is required to create a GOTO route is having the destination waypoint saved in memory. This waypoint can be one that you have saved earlier (which is stored in your User Waypoint List) or any of the landmarks that come with the MAP 330 in its built-in database. For example, suppose you parked your car and planned on going hiking for about an hour. And suppose that when you are done with your hike you want directions for getting back to your car. It's all very simple. First, at the location you parked your car you would use the MAP 330 to compute that position and then you would save that position with a name like "Parked." After your hike, you can use the GOTO function (described following this section) and select "Parked" as your destination from the User Waypoint List. The MAP 330 will then guide you back to your car. Press GOTO. The first thing that has to be done is to select the destination waypoint. This is done by accessing the waypoint database. The first screen is used to select the category of the database that the waypoint is in and how it will be found, alphabetically or nearest to your position or cursor. Selecting a Destination Waypoint from the Database using "Near Position" Use the UP/DOWN arrows to highlight the category that your destination waypoint is in. Use the LEFT/RIGHT arrows to select how the waypoints are displayed, Alphabetical, Near Position or Near Cursor. In this case, you will be using "Near Position". 18 Magellan MAP 330 GPS Receiver

Press GOTO.
The first thing that has to be done is to
select the destination waypoint.
This is done by
accessing the waypoint database.
The first screen is
used to select the category of the database that the
waypoint is in and how it will be found, alphabetically
or nearest to your position or cursor.
A GOTO route is simply a route with a start point and a single destination point;
I am here and I want to
go to
there.
All that is required to create a GOTO route
is having the destination waypoint saved in memory.
This waypoint can be one
that you have saved earlier (which is stored in your User Waypoint List) or any of
the landmarks that come with the MAP 330 in its built-in database.
For example, suppose you parked your car and
planned on going hiking for about an hour.
And
suppose that when you are done with your hike you
want directions for getting back to your car.
It’s all
very simple.
First, at the location you parked your car
you would use the MAP 330 to compute that position
and then you would save that position with a name like “Parked.”
After
your hike, you can use the GOTO function (described following this
section) and select “Parked” as your destination from the User Waypoint
List.
The MAP 330 will then guide you back to your car.
Selecting a Destination Waypoint from the Database using “Near Position”
Use the UP/DOWN arrows to highlight the category that your destination
waypoint is in.
Use the LEFT/RIGHT arrows to select how the waypoints are
displayed, Alphabetical, Near Position or Near Cursor.
In this case, you will be
using “Near Position”.
