Editing Routes

A route can be edited any time after its creation.

To edit a route from the active route page or

the route definition page:

1. Select the waypoint you want to edit, and press .

An on-screen menu of editing choices will appear,

with options for reviewing, inserting, deleting, or

changing the waypoint field highlighted. This field con-

tains the following options:

• Review?— displays the waypoint definition page

for the selected waypoint

• Insert?— adds a new waypoint directly in front

of the selected waypoint

• Remove?— deletes the selected waypoint from

the route

• Change?— allows you to replace the selected

waypoint with a new waypoint

Note: Editing the original storage route will not

affect route 0. If you want to save an edited version of

route 0, save it to an open storage route.

On-Route GOTOs

At the beginning of this section, we mentioned that

the GPS 12XL will automatically select the route leg

closest to your position as the active leg. This will give

you steering guidance to the desired track (desired

course) of the active leg. Note that the first waypoint

selected as the destination waypoint will be along the

route leg closest to your present position. This may

mean you’re not navigating to the first waypoint in the

active route—you may even be navigating to the last.

You can manually navigate a route out of sequence at

any time (bypassing one or more interim waypoints) by

perform an “on-route GOTO” from the active route page.

To perform an “on-route GOTO” from the active

route page:

1. Highlight the desired route waypoint, and press .

2. Once the GOTO waypoint page appears with the way-

point highlighted, press .

Note that after you reach the on-route GOTO way-

point, the GPS 12XL will automatically resume navigat-

ing the rest of the route in sequence.
