3 Primary Pages QUICK ST ART Satellite Page Satellite Page Satellite Page Satellite Page Satellite Page Only solid bars on the Satellite page represent satellites being used for navigation Position Pa.
4 Ma p P age The Map Page Map Page Map Page Map Page Map Page allows you to view your position, the “path” you have traveled over, and nearby waypoints. A diamond icon in the center of the screen repre- sents your current position. As you move, you will see a thin line - called a track log - appear along the path you have just covered.
5 Quic k Star t T our The Quick Start Tour will teach you the basic op- eration of your GPS 12CX. This tour assumes that none of the factory settings (units of measure, selectable fields) have been changed. If the settings have been changed the pictures and descriptions you see in the manual may not match what you see on the screen.
6 Using the P osition P age Walk briskly for 3 - 4 minutes and watch the position page. This is a good opportunity to compare the Com- pass Tape at the top of the page and the Track (the direc- tion that you are moving), as long as you are walking briskly they should be a direct reflection of one another.
7 QUICK ST ART Compass Page & Cancelling a GOTO Compass P age Whenever you select a destination waypoint, the GPS 12CX provides graphic steering guidance with the Compass Page (the default navigation page).
8 QUICK ST ART Cancelling a GOTO Cancelling a GO T O If you decide to stop navigating to the active waypoint, all you have to do is cancel the GOTO. T o cancel an active GOT O: 1. Press the GOT O key . 2. Use the ROCKER to move the highlight to the OPT tab.
9 REFERENCE Satellite Page The GPS 12CX’s Satellite Page displays the status of various receiver functions. The status information will help you understand what the GPS 12CX is doing at any given time, and will tell you whether or not the receiver has calculated a position fix.
10 R ecei v er Sta tus Receiver status is indicated at the top left of the page, with the current horizontal accuracy (esti- mated position error, in feet or meters) at the top right.
11 EZinit Option Prompt (contin ued) (The EZinit prompt will automatically appear if the receiver needs to be initialized. The prompt may also appear during normal use if the antenna is shaded or the unit is operated indoors.
12 REFERENCE Position Page P osition P age The second page in the GPS 12CX’s primary page sequence is the Position Page. This page shows you where you are, what direction you’re heading, and how fast you’re going, and it’s most useful when you are traveling without an active destination waypoint.
13 REFERENCE Maximum Speed & Altitude Fields Maximum Speed Field To obtain the most accurate reading of your maxi- mum speed, keep in mind that due to the sensitivity of the GPS 12CX’s antenna, your maximum speed value may include the effects of rapid movement, such as swinging your arm while holding the unit.
14 Ma p P age The Map Page shows your current position and sur- roundings, and provides you with a target cursor that lets you pan ahead to nearby waypoints, determine the distance and bearing to a map position or nearby way- point, and mark new waypoints while you navigate.
15 REFERENCE W aypoint Display & GOTO Map W aypoint P anning To pan around the map simply use the ROCKER to control the direction that the target crosshair will travel.
16 Using the Cursor to Mar k and Goto W a ypoints During panning, the crosshair represents a target position right on the Map Page, with the range and bear- ing to the target displayed at the top corners of the screen. You can also use the target crosshair to mark a new way- point position or as a GOTO destination right from the map field.
17 REFERENCE Map & T rack Setup Pages Ma p Setup P ag e and Orientation (cont.) The rest of the map setup page lets you specify what items are displayed on the map and their color. • ’Rings’– displays three range rings on the map at incre ments of 1/5th the selected map scale.
18 T r ac k Method The track ‘method’ option determines how often positions are stored in the track log. The default setting is ‘auto’, which records track points based upon a set variance from your projected course over ground. This setting provides the most efficient use of track memory and the best TracBack performance.
19 REFERENCE Navigation Pages Selecting a Na vig a tion P age Once you’ve selected a GOTO destination or acti- vated a TracBack, MOB, or route; the GPS 12CX will provide graphic steering guidance to.
20 Customizing the Na vig a tion P ag es The ‘ETE’ field, located at bottom center on both pages, is a user-selectable field that allows you to dis- play a variety of navigation values for your trip. T o access the user-selectable field: 1. Highlight ‘ETE’, and press ENTER .
21 Using the Compass P a ge The Compass Page provides better steering guidance than the Highway Page for travel at slower speeds (e.g., walking), travel with many directional changes and when it’s not necessary to follow an exact course.
22 Using the Highw a y P age The GPS 12CX’s Highway Page provides graphic steering guidance to a destination waypoint, with a greater emphasis on the straight-line desired course and the dis- tance and direction you are off course.
23 Cr ea ting W a ypoints The GPS 12CX allows you to store up to 1000 posi- tions as waypoints. A waypoint can be entered by taking an instant electronic fix, by manually entering coordi- nates, by using the bearing and distance to a known position or by marking a position on the map page.
24 W a ypoint Comments Each waypoint stored in the GPS 12CX has a user defined 16-character comment field. The default com- ment is the UTC (or Greenwich Mean Time) date and time of the waypoint’s creation. T o change or add a comment: 1. Highlight the comment field.
25 W a ypoint Definition P age The waypoint definition page lets you create new waypoints manually or review and edit an existing waypoint’s coordinates, symbols, and comments. It is also used to delete an individual waypoint from memory (see pg. 26).
26 Renaming a Waypoint Scanning Waypoints Deleting a Waypoint R ef er ence W a ypoints To create a new waypoint manually without knowing its position coordinates, you’ll need to enter its bearing and distance from an existing waypoint or your present position.
27 Locate and Review Waypoint Delete All Waypoints Delete Waypoints by Symbol W a ypoint List P age The waypoint list page provides a complete list of all waypoints stored in the GPS 12CX. The waypoints are conveniently located on alphabetical tabs that allow quick access to any of the 1000 available waypoints.
28 Quickly edit or remove proximity waypoints, by highlighting the way- point name and pressing ENTER . The compass heading (BRG) and distance (DST) to the nine nearest waypoints are updated continu- ously. The Proximity Alarm will trigger when the distance to the waypoint is smaller than the distance entered in the ‘DST’ field.
29 Cancelling an active GOTO Man Overboard Function Activating a Direct GOTO Selecting a GOTO Destination The GPS 12CX provides four ways to navigate to a destination: GOTO, MOB, TracBack, and Route naviga- tion.
30 Clearing the Track Log Activating a TracBack Route T r acBac k Na vig a tion GARMIN’s patented TracBack feature allows you to quickly retrace your path using the track log automatically stored in the receiver.
31 Activating a TracBack will create a route base on your current track log. ‘T’ waypoints and symbols will be added to the waypoint list and displayed on the map for easy iden- tification. The TracBack will be- come the ‘Active Route’ and dis- played on the active route page.
32 Route Navigation The last form of navigating to a destination with the GPS 12CX is by creating a user-defined route. The route navigation feature lets you plan and navigate a course from one place to another using a set of pre-defined way- points.
33 Entering a New Comment To Select the Route Definition Page Route Definition Page The last form of navigating to a destination with the GPS 12CX is by creating a user-defined route. The GPS 12CX lets you create and store up to 20 routes of 30 waypoints each.
