Course Alert Routing Option [MF 60]

Unread post by BusterKeaton39 »

On the GpsMap 67 there are Routing options under Setup. Where are these options on the H1?

As JungleJim wrote 1 month ago on another Garmin forum:
The type of routing is not linked to an activity. Instead you select it when you navigate to a destination. Select the destination, press Navigate and then toggle the Routing option to On to plan along the road, or Off to go in a straight line.
It keeps the last selection of the Routing option, even if you switch activities. So if you load a Course and had Routing set to On previously it will still be on, even if you switched to a different activity.
On the other hand, you can easily toggle the Routing option when loading the course, only downside is that the device is somewhat slow to react when it's calculating a route.

The routing options on the H1 can be configured when you start navigating, ie load a course (and enable routing) or select a destination. See this section in the manual.

Thank you both for your replies and explanation. However, it would appear that the Course alert option under routing on the GpsMap 67 is missing on the H1.

You can setup a Course Alert under Settings > Marine > Marine Alarm Setup > Off Course Alarm.
