Using the Map Page

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’ (track 
log).  Waypoint names and symbols are also shown on the map.  

To help you better visualize the ‘real world’, Foretrex 101 automatically rotates the 

map as you move, so that waypoints that are ahead of you are always displayed above the 
animated figure.  The Heading Indicator shows the direction you are heading.

To make sure you can see your entire trip, you can change the map scale (from 20 feet to 

800 miles) by pressing and holding the 

UP

 button to view a larger area (zoom out), or the 

DOWN

 button for viewing a smaller area (zoom in).
