Hi Dennis, You set your virtual position which it sounds like you did. You also then do the same for your destination. Now, make sure you're in virtual mode and not gps mode by pressing the letter v. It should say "switched to virtual mode". If it says switched to gps mode, press it again to toggle back to virtual mode.
To create a route, once your virtual position and your destination have been set, press the letter r followed by either the letter p or the letter v depending on whenther you want to create a pedestrian or vehicular route. The bn will then create the route, showing you progress numbers until it's completed. This may take several minutes depending on the length of the route. Once the route is completed, you can trace the route by repeatedly pressing the letter w to step through it. There appears no way to set a virtual position and "walk" down streets as you could in Atlas. If you can explore this way I sure haven't figured out how to do it. The manual really could have been written more clearly and I found it somewhat difficult to follow as well. I had to read much of the information several times to figure it out.

I am trying to navigate my surroundings in virtual mode. I have set up a virtual position, can find the first intersection (but not sure how to find one in another direction), but don't know how to move towards it, or in any other direction to explore surroundings. Also, after I put in a street address as a destination, how do I get GPS to plan out the route? Any help most welcomed please, or point me to the section numbers in the manual which I have read through but obviously not closely enough. --- TheJazzDen - the best UK, US and around-the-world jazz - www.thejazzden.org.uk now with broadband and modem streams! --- Broadband: put http://listen.thejazzden.org.uk:10025 into your player. --- Dial-up: put http://listen.thejazzden.org.uk:10023 into your player. --- Essentially Natural - Our own hand-made soaps and cosmetics using natural ingredients now accepting credit cards online: http://www.e-nat.co.uk. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
