Hi TP, Rather than attempting to recreate the great documentation that Sendero Group has made, I will point you to the Audio Tutorial: http://www.senderogroup.com/supportgps.htm I strongly encourage listening to the entire Audio Tutorial as Chris G from Sendero Group has done an excellent job at describing the various aspects of the GPS. But, to address your section of Virtual mode and Virtual Exploration, in particular. You will want to move to the heading: Sendero GPS Audio Tutorial for the BrailleNote by topic. The full tutorial is available in the full documentation download. And, find Section 7: Virtual Explore and Exploring Routes
