Primary Pages Before we start the tour, let’s briefly look at the five primary information pages used for the GPS 12. Switch between pages by pressing either the Q o r J keys. Satellite Page Th e Satellite Pag e shows satellite positions and signal strength. Satellite positions are displayed using two circles and a center point. The outer circle [...]

Map Page Th e Map Pag e acts as a window. It allows you to view your position, the “path” you have traveled ove r , and nearby waypoints. A diamond icon in the center of the screen rep r e - sents your cu r r ent position. As you move, you will see a thin line—called a track log — appear along the path you have just covered. Names of stored[...]

Getting Started Tour Now that you’ve seen the primary pages, let’s get started by taking a simple tour to show you the basics about using your GP S 12. The tour assumes that your unit has been turned on and that none of the facto r y settings ( units of measure, selectable fields, etc.) have been changed. If these settings have been changed, th[...]

Using the Position Page W alk for 3-4 minutes and watch the Position Page. The direction you are moving (track), your speed, trip distance, and altitude are shown on the upper half of the screen. The latitude and longitude of your position are displayed in the middle of the page, with the time of day shown belo w . Let’s continue by moving to the[...]

Compass Page Whenever you select a destination waypoint, the GPS 12 provides graphic steering guidance with the Compass Page (the default navigation page). The “co m - pass ring” in the middle of the page shows your course over ground while you’re moving, with a pointer a r r ow to the destination displayed in the center. The a r r ow shows t[...]

Clearing a Cluttered Map Display After you’ve used the GPS12 for a few trips, you may find that your map display has become a bit messy from keeping track of your every move. For practice, let’s clean up the screen by clearing the track log (the plot points left on the Map Page) we’ve just created during the Getting Started tou r . 1. Press P[...]

Satellite Page The GPS 12’s Satellite Page displays the status of various receiver functions. The status information will help you understand what the GPS 12 is doing at any given time, and will tell you whether or not the receiver has calculated a position fix.

T o activate the GOT[...]

T racBack Navigation GARMIN’s patented TracBack feature allows you to quickly retrace your path using the track log automati- cally stored in the receiver. This feature eliminates the need to mark waypoints along the way and manually create and activate a route back to where you began your trip. Three track recording options are available: Off ?[...]

Tips On the TracBack Featu r e • Always clear your track log at the exact point that you want to go back to (trail head, truck, etc.). • The ‘RECORD’ option on the track log setup page must be set to ‘WRAP’ or ‘FILL’. • There must be at least two track log points stored in memory to create a TracBack route. • If there is not eno[...]

Route Navigation The last form of navigating to a destination with the GPS 12 is by creating a use r -defined r oute. The r oute navigation feature lets you plan and navigate a course f r om one place to another using a set of p r e-defined waypoints. Routes are often used when it ’ s not practical, safe, or possible to navigate a di r ect course[...]

Route Definition Page The last form of navigating to a destination with the GPS 12 is by creating a user-defined route. The GPS 12 lets you create and store up to 20 routes of 30 waypoints each.
