Overview |
|
|
The new Magellan Triton 300 is built tough, with the
latest hardware - yet its simple software interface is a
snap to operate. The Triton 300 gives you a full color
screen, a built-in map database and essential
easy-to-use navigation features, making it an unmatched
value in its class. The Magellan Triton series reinvents
handheld GPS with a smartly designed interface and
simple menus that make navigation fun and effortless.
The full-color crystal clear display shows all your maps
and navigation information in brilliant, easy-to-view
graphics. Quickly view all your locations and saved
tracks and waypoints using the intuitive user interface
and direct-access buttons. Unlike complicated devices
that require you to scroll through screen after screen,
Triton 300 gets you to the information you want in two
or three clicks.
The Triton 300 lets you add
detailed maps and applications to the available memory
and further enhance your navigation experience. Plus,
Triton is the first handheld GPS to offer compatibility
with National Geographic maps. These highly detailed
nation-wide topographic maps based on USGS 1:24.000
series quads, offer seamless scalability, multi-layer
overlays and much more.
Triton is designed for
precision navigation, offering the fastest GPS
positioning acquisition in the industry with the
SiRFstar III chipset. An integrated high-sensitivity
antenna provides reliable signal reception even in heavy
cloud cover, canyons or deep woods. Built-in signal
augmentation reception (WAAS/EGNOS) provides 3-meter
accuracy.
Rugged and waterproof, your Triton 300
is built to withstand intense use, accidental impact and
immersion in one meter of water for up to 30 minutes
(IPX-7). It's ready to guide you on any adventure.
The advanced features are also easy to use. View the
elevation profile for the trail ahead (or any route).
See the precise time of sunrise/sunset any day of the
year. Get a calculation of the best hunting and fishing
time. And much more.
Exclusive VantagePoint
software (optional, purchase of data cable required)
lets you easily manage user generated content, updates
and upgrades on your PC. View saved routes and tracks.
Customize them for future trips or create new ones.
Triton is built on the experience of GPS users over
nearly 20 years of precision positioning technology from
Magellan. Triton 300: Seek out new routes to explore! |
