6 The eXplorist 500 uses information from the GPS satellites orbiting the earth to provide you with detailed information about your exact location. This is the foundation that your eXplorist will use to provide you with the necessary information to arrive at your destination.
Step T wo: Where Do Y ou W ant T o Go? Now that the eXplorist knows where you are, you need to tell it where you want to go. There are many different ways you can do this, but the simplest and most commonly used is a “GOTO” route. This is a one-leg route with a beginning (where you are now) and a destination (where you want to go).
A simpler example, and one you can do at just about any time, is finding your car in that ocean of other cars in the shopping mall parking lot. Just park your car , step outside and let your eXplorist compute your position. (Make sure that you have a clear view of the sky .
Additional Features Y our Magellan eXplorist contains all of the features that you would expect from a high-quality Magellan-brand handheld navigation device, as well as many more to make your outdoor experience more enjoyable. Y ou have the ability to customize the navigation screens, enabling you to view the information that is important to you.

Status of position fix Number of satellites being tracked Current location indicator Satellite icon Signal level bar graph Satellite identifier Satellite Status Screen The Satellite Status screen is a handy way to visually see just how well the eXplorist is tracking and receiving satellite signals.
28 Basic File Structure The eXplorist has a file structure system that is unlike any other filing system used before on a GPS receiver . It is based on the file system that you are probably familiar with from using your personal computer .
Using the Filing System with POIs • When retrieving or saving a POI, the eXplorist automatically goes to the default POI file where the POI will be found or saved. NOTE: The default file is set at the factory but you can change the default file to be used by accessing Preferences > Active Setup .
• Creating new Folders: Y ou can also create new folders for your route files to be saved in. Exit the file you have open by using the Up One Level option. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight New Folder and press ENTER . Use the displayed keyboard to enter a name for the folder .
31 Whether driving in a car , hiking on the trail, or out for an afternoon sail, you are going to want to save places you’ve been in your eXplorist so that you can go back to them in the future. This is the fundamental starting point for any GPS navigator .
Points of Interest 32 Marking Y our Position (Personalized) Normally , marking your position is simply a two-button process: MARK and ENTER. However , sometimes you will want to personalize the POI you are marking to make it easier to identify later .
Making POIs for Locations Other Than Y our Present Position Sometimes, you may want to save a position that is not your present position. The eXplorist offers you two ways of doing that. Y ou can modify the coordinates of your present position or you can use the Cursor mode of the Map screen to pan to the location you want to mark.
Marking a Position using the Map Cursor This gives you a way of marking a position, other than your present position, by moving the cursor around the map to a place where you want to create a POI. 1. While viewing the Map screen, use the Arrow joystick to put the eXplorist into Cursor mode.
The POI Database All of the POIs that you have saved and map POIs, can be accessed using the POI database. Once the database has been accessed and the POI selected, you can view or edit the POI. Highlights of the POI database are: • Searching for POIs you have saved, nearest to your position or in alphabetical order .
Searching for a Preloaded POI using Nearest Searching for a preloaded POI using the Nearest option is similar to searching for user - entered POIs with an additional step. Preloaded POIs have been categorized into five categories (Cities, Highways, Airports, W aterways, and Parks) and you need to select the category that the POI will be found in.
Searching for a Preloaded POI using Alphabetical This is very similar to searching for a POI using nearest; but, due to the large numbers of POIs in the database, an additional step has been added to speed up the process of finding the POI you are looking for .
Editing a User -Created POI POIs that you have saved can be edited to change the icon, visibility , name, elevation, and message. Y ou can also change the location, but keep in mind that this effectively is creating a new POI in a new location.
Deleting a User -Created POI POIs that you have saved can be deleted using this operation. If you have created a lot of POIs, you may wish to delete any unneessary ones so that you may more easily search for a newly created POI. POIs that have been deleted cannot be restored.
Points of Interest 40 V iewing a User -Created POI on the Map Screen POIs that you have saved can be viewed on the Map screen to assist you in locating the POI. 1. Press MENU . 2. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight Pts of Interest . 3. Press ENTER . 4.
Points of Interest 41 Copying a Preloaded POI POIs that have been preloaded as part of the background map can be saved as a user -entered POIs. Preloaded POIs cannot be deleted; it just copies it to the My Points of Interest portion of the database. 1.
V iewing a Preloaded POI on the Map Screen POIs that have been preloaded as part of the background map can be viewed on the Map screen to assist you in locating a POI. 1. Press MENU . 2. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight Pts of Interest . 3. Press ENTER .
Showing or Hiding a User -Entered POI on the Map Screen Y ou can select whether a user -entered POI is displayed or hidden while viewing the Map screen. In the upper left corner of the POI Save screen (next to the icon field) is a checkbox that indicated if the POI will be visible on the map.
44 Routes are the least understood and one of the most important functions of a GPS receiver . The better you understand routes and how to use them, the more enjoyment you will receive from using your eXplorist. The simpiest and most common form of a route is a GOTO route.
Routes 45 Creating a GOTO Route The instructions here describe the most common and easiest way to create a GOTO route. 1. Press GOTO . 2. Use the POI database to select the POI to be the destination. Note: Detailed instructions for searching the POI database can be found in the Points of Interest section of this manual.
Creating a GOTO Route from the Map Cursor This will create a GOTO route to a point on the map that you have indicated by moving the crosshair cursor on the Map screen. 1. While viewing the Map screen, use the Arrow joystick, causing the eXplorist to go into Cursor mode.
Creating a GOTO Route to a Map Object This will create a GOTO route to a map object (city , highway , user POI, etc.) that you have indicated by moving the crosshair cursor on the Map screen over the map object. 1. While viewing the Map screen, use the Arrow joystick, causing the eXplorist to go into Cursor mode.
Routes 48 Multi-Leg Routes Multi-leg routes can be used to navigate to a final destination using multiple legs. An example would be leaving the dock, motoring over to buoy 1, then the bait boat, and finally to a fishing hot spot. This route would go from Dock to Buoy 1,Buoy 1 to Bait, Bait to Fish.
Creating a Multi-leg Route The eXplorist will provide you with an empty list for your route, and you can use the POIs saved in the POI database to create the route. All the tools you’d need to create the route will be described here. Steps in creating a multi-leg route: 1.
Activating/Deactivating a Route An active route is the route you are presently navigating on. Anytime you activate a route, it will remain the active route until you either turn it off (deactivate) or activate a new route. GOTOs are automatically activated when they are created, while multi-leg routes need to be activated manually .
Changing the Destination Leg of an Active Route When a route is created it can have many different legs to it, each leg with its own destination. If during your travels you want to skip some of the legs, you can select the leg that you want to proceed to next.
Editing a Saved Route Saved routes can be edited to add a new leg at the end of the route ( Add POI ), remove a leg ( Delete POI ), insert a new leg ( Insert POI ), or change the destination from one POI to another ( Replace POI ). 1. Press MENU . 2. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight Routes .
Reversing a Route Reversing a route takes a saved route and recreates it in reverse order . The sample route that was discussed earlier , Camp > Bridge > Marker > Ranger > Swim , would now be Swim > Ranger > Marker > Bridge > Camp.
Deleting a Route The eXplorist can hold up to 20 different routes. When you have 20 routes saved, you will need to delete one before you can create a new one. 1. Press MENU . 2. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight Routes . 3. Press ENTER . 4. Locate the file that contains the route you want to delete.
Moving a Route This provides you with a means of moving a route from one file to another . 1. Press MENU . 2. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight Routes . 3. Press ENTER . 4. Locate the file that contains the route you want to move. (The eXplorist will automatically open the default file.
Copying a Route Copying a route makes an exact duplicate of a route that can then be edited, saving you time in creating a new route that is similar to an existing route. Another use would be to copy a route and reverse it. 1. Press MENU . 2. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight Routes .
Routes 57 Viewing a Route on the Map Viewing the route on the map gives you a way of graphically seeing the legs of the route as they appear on the map. 1. Press MENU . 2. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight Routes . 3. Press ENTER . 4. Locate the file that contains the route.
58 As you are moving, the eXplorist continuously records your track. Much like leaving breadcrumbs on the trail that you can use later to find your way back, the eXplorist leaves “electronic breadcrumbs” on the map. The advantage here is that you don’t have to worry about animals coming along and eating your return route markers.
Stopping and Resuming Active T rack Logging This provides the ability to turn off the recording of the active track and then to starting it up again. 1. Press MENU . 2. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight Track Log . 3. Press ENTER . 4. Highlight Active Track .

T rack Logs 61 Saving an Active T rack Log This will save your active track log with a name you enter that you can use at some time in the future. This does not erase your presently active route; only saves the current active track and adds it to the list of available track logs.
T rack Logs 62 Creating a BackT rack Route BackT rack routes use your active track to create a route back to where you started, turning around and following the electronic breadcrumb trail that the eXplorist dropped. 1. Press MENU . 2. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight Track Log .
T rack Logs 63 Clearing the Active T rack The active track can get to be very large, especially if you haven’t cleared it in a while. It is recommended that if you plan to use BackT rack or to save the upcoming track log that you should clear the active track before beginning your journey .
Converting the T rack Log to a Route This function takes the track log and turns it into a multi-leg route that is saved in your route list. From here, the route can be edited if necessary . Note: Convert to Route is available for both active track logs and track logs you have saved.
T rack Logs 65 Viewing the T rack Log on the Map Selecting View on Map displays the track log chosen and plots it on the Map screen. This gives you the opportunity to graphically view the track log. Note: View on Map is available for both active track logs and track logs you have saved.
W orking with Saved T rack Logs It has been mentioned before that you can convert saved track logs to a route and view saved track logs on the map. There are three functions unique to saved track logs that you can perform: following, reversing, and deleting the track.
Deleting a Saved T rack Log Use this function to remove track logs that have been previously saved and are no longer needed. 1. Press MENU . 2. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight Track Log . 3. Press ENTER . 4. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight any track log you have previously saved.
