Foretrex 101 Features Foretrex 101 Features Foretrex 101 Features Foretrex 101 Features Foretrex™ 101 Using the Map Page Navigating to a Location Using Tracks Using Routes QUICK START GUIDE Basic navigation with your Foretrex requires only three steps: mark, move, and return. Mark your location as a waypoint, move a distance away, and then return after choosing one of several methods, such as using a GoTo or following a virtual breadcrumb trail. The Foretrex 101 automatically draws an electronic breadcrumb trail or ‘track log’ on the Map Page as you travel. Tracks are marked BEGIN and END. The Foretrex 101 uses the Track Log to allow you to navigate using the saved track or using the TracBack feature. TracBack guides you to where you started by following the track log that you left behind, allowing you to return along a traveled path without marking any waypoints. You can retrace your track in both directions. If you want to keep a record of a certain track log or use the ‘TracBack’ feature, clear the Track Log before you start traveling. Route navigation allows you to create a sequence of waypoints to lead you to your final destination. The Map Page shows where you are (the animated figure) and provides a picture of where you are going. As you travel, the animated figure ‘walks’ and leaves a ‘trail’ or ‘track log’. Waypoint names and symbols are also shown on the map. To return to a waypoint using the GOTO button: 1. Press the GOTO button to display the GoTo Waypoint Page. 2. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to select the desired tab and press ENTER. Map Page To use the Map Page while moving around: 1. Press the PAGE button until the Map Page is displayed. Press the DOWN button to zoom in for a more detailed view of the map. Press the UP button to zoom out for a view of a larger map area. 2. Walk or drive around for a few minutes, make a right or left turn, then continue for a few more minutes and stop. Marking a Waypoint Waypoints are locations or landmarks worth recording and storing in your GPS. These are locations you may later want to return to, such as check points on a route or significant ground features like your campsite or a favorite fishing spot. Waypoints may be defined and stored in the unit manually by taking coordinates for the waypoint from a map or other reference. This can be done before ever leaving home. Or more usually, waypoints may be entered directly by taking a reading with the unit at the location itself, giving it a name, and then saving the point. To mark your current location as a waypoint: 1. Press and hold the ENTER/MARK button for two seconds to display the Mark Waypoint Page. Your current location is marked as a waypoint and assigned a three-digit number. 2. The ‘OK’ button is highlighted so press the ENTER/MARK button again to save the Waypoint. 3.
