Selecting a GOTO Destination

The GPS 120XL provides four ways to navigate to a

destination: GOTO, MOB, TracBack and route naviga-

tion. The most basic method of selecting a destination is

the GOTO function, which lets you choose any stored

waypoint as the destination and quickly sets a direct

course from your present position.

To activate the GOTO function:

1. Press the

key. The GOTO waypoint list, an alpha-

betical list of all available waypoints, will appear.

2. Use the

and

keys to select the waypoint you

want to navigate to (it may already be highlighted).

3. Press the

key to confirm, or

to stop selec-

tion of a GOTO destination and return to the previous

page.

Once a GOTO waypoint has been activated, the

Compass Page or Highway Page will provide steering

guidance to the destination until either the GOTO is

cancelled or the unit has resumed navigating the active

route (see page 34).

To cancel an active GOTO:

1. Press the

key.

2. Use the arrow keypad to move the field highlight to the

‘CANCEL GOTO?’ prompt at the bottom of the page and

press

Man Overboard Function

The GPS 120XL’s man overboard function (MOB)

lets you simultaneously mark and set a course to a posi-

tion for quick response to passing positions (like the

spot where your hat blew overboard).

To activate the MOB mode:

1. Press the

key. The GOTO waypoint page will

appear with ‘MOB’ selected as the default destination.

2. Press the

key to begin MOB navigation.

The GPS 120XL will now guide you to the MOB

waypoint until the MOB GOTO is cancelled (see “to

cancel an active GOTO” above). If you want to save the

MOB waypoint, be sure to rename it, because it will be

overwritten the next time a MOB is executed.

Starting/Stopping

a GOTO & MOB

REFERENCE

Select a destination way-

point from the GOTO way-

point list.

Once the MOB mode has

been activated, steering

guidance will be provided

by the highway or compass

page. Activating another

MOB will replace the previ-

ous MOB waypoint.
