I am excited because I have a replay to one of the pools in this gygantic complex in which I live and do you think at the present time I can find my way there? Uh Nnnnnnnnnope And if I were to created an automated route, I'd have to go the streets way. In this way I just go on the walks and it is like a maze here.

Great, Mike! I've been waiting for that one! Wonderful, wonderful! <Smiles>-- Carol carol.pearson29@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxOn Thursday, July 03, 2008 7:04 AM (UK time), Michael May at MikeMay@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx said:Even when a route is closed, the destination stays active. If you have made it close enough to the destination that the route closes, you are pretty darn close to the destination. You can use the D key to zero in. I will also divulge that the next version of our GPS will automatically creates routes from a replay file. That means you can turn replay on, walk a route, cloe it and then create a route from that replay. It won't matter if you are mapped streets or walking through the woods. This is the same approach that the Breeze is taking to accommodate users who prefer a simple system. Mike At 06:34 PM 7/2/2008, you wrote:Hello, Catherine- How nice to see a posting from you! This is Sandy Staples, a person from long ago and far away (well, California). The Sendero BN GPS automatically closes routes when the destination is reached-- which I have found vexing at times! But it is not always efficient to reverse route in a vehicle, so setting a new route back to the starting point does make sense (one-way streets, medians prohibiting a U-turn, etc.). It is a exasperating with the pedestrian route, particularly when a client's metal mapping is such that retracing ones steps is preferred. Creating a new route to the starting point does not always result in just a reversal. A go-around that I have used myself and have worked out with some travelers is to name and save the route before getting to the destination. The only tool that I am familiar with that will reserve a traveled route is the new Trekker Breeze-- but the routes are recorded versus generated anew for a particular destination.

Hi all, I have a question for you about automatic and manual routes. When my students reach their destinations in both automatic and manual routes, the route closes before they can reverse the route. We have tried to anticipate the BN saying "Route close(or closure)" and striking RR beforehand, but we haven't always been fortunate with this. Does anyone know why this is happening? And, what we should be doing to avoid having the route close without saving it? I should add that we are using mpowers, Holux Slimline 236, and ver.4.22 .
