Overview Thank you for your purchase of the Magellan Triton GPS receiver. The Magellan Triton was designed for the outdoor enthusiast with all the features needed to make your outdoor adventures safe and enjoyable. Be sure to register your Magellan Triton at www.magellangps.com to be kept informed of possible software updates and new features as they become available. Also visit the Magellan Triton support page at www.magellangps.com/support/ and select your Magellan Triton model for additional information and tips on the use of your Triton. Features of the Magellan Triton 2.7" color touch screen - The brilliant colors and touchscreen controls provide an easy-to-read display that makes selecting functions as easy as touching the screen. Ease-of-use - Simple menus and an intuitive interface makes using the Magellan Triton easy for first time GPS receiver users while still keeping all the functions experienced users expect to see. Routes and tracks - Create a single leg Go To route, a route with multiple destinations or just use the backtrack function to follow your footsteps back to your point of origin. 3-meter accuracy - The SiRFstarIII™ GPS chipset and an integrated multidirectional antenna offer superior GPS accuracy. The Magellan Triton is also WAAS and EGNOS-capable, taking advantage of the Wide Area Augmentation System for improved accuracy. 3-axis electronic compass (Triton 2000 only) - Get accurate compass readings while standing still, even without a GPS fix, and no matter how you hold the receiver. (GPS receivers without an electronic compass require that you are moving before the compass shows your correct heading.) Barometer (Triton 2000 only) - Sensitive barometric pressure readings offer advanced notice of changing weather conditions. Built-in map - A built-in base map of the continental United States and Canada display major highways, city centers, bodies of water and much more.

SD-card expansion - Use an optional SD memory card to upload detailed maps and store media. 2 mega-pixel camera - (Triton 2000 only) Take clear beautiful pictures or videos of your adventure as you navigate and attach them to waypoints so you can easily find your way back to the same spot or to share with family and friends.
