Navigation Simulator

The GPS 12XL’s simulator mode lets you practice all

aspects of its operation without active satellite acquisi-

tion. You can plan and practice trips, enter new way-

points and routes, and save them for use during nor-

mal operation.

To activate the simulator:

1. From the Main Menu Page, highlight ‘SYSTEM

SETUP’, and press .

2. Highlight the ‘MODE’ field, and press .

3. Select ‘Simulator?’, and press .

Once the simulator mode has been activated, use

the Position, Compass, or Highway Page to set your

speed and track by highlighting the appropriate field,

entering the desired value, and pressing . You

may also enter a new position if you desire (from the

Position Page).

The GPS 12XLdoes not track satellites in simu -

lator mode. Although you can create and save

waypoints and routes while using the simulator

mode, never attempt to use the simulator mode

for actual navigation.

Select the simulator mode

from the operation mode

choices and press ENTER.

You may return to normal

operation by changing the

operation mode or by

turning the unit off and

back on.
