16 Magellan SporTrak GPS ReceiverThe list of all the waypoints for the category you selected, in this case cities,is displayed with the waypoint that was previously selected at the top of thelist. Now just use the Up/Down arrows to highlight the waypoint you arelooking for and press [ENTER].For this example, you would highlight Los Angeles and press[ENTER]. The Map screen is displayed and the SporTrak will begincomputing all of the necessary information needed to get you to yourdestination.The SporTrak has the ability to provide you with the tools you’ll need tonavigate to your destination. You have the choice of three customizablescreens that display the information that you need in the layout that youdesire. Hikers may find the compass screen perfect for them while boatersmay prefer the Large Data or Map screen. For you, the Map screen mayhave all the information you’ll ever require.Press [NAV] until the navigation screen you want is displayed.If you selected the Map screen, you will see your position icon in the centerof the screen with a line drawn for you on the map, graphically displayingthe GOTO route.Note that this route is line of sight (LOS) or “as the crow flies.” TheSporTrak does not compute the route using streets and highways providinga turn-by-turn routing. You’ll find very quickly that you can easily use theroads and highways displayed on the Map screen and compare them to thedisplayed route and get to your destination simply.GOTO routes are NOT saved in memory when the SporTrakis turned off. If you are navigating on a GOTO route and youneed to turn the SporTrak off, you will need to restart theGOTO. Routes, however, are stored in memory. If you needto make a GOTO but expect to turn the SporTrak off beforearriving, you might consider making a 1-leg route using theroute menu.
