so if i walk around an area where the start point and end point are the same, does it let me save it at the end? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Grabowski" <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

A sequential route is a type of route following.
This means you must arrive near each waypoint when you are traveling
your route. waypoint 1, then 2, then 3. no matter if waypoint 3 is
closer to you then waypoint 2, you must travel to waypoint two first.
if sequential route following was turned off, and you were walking the
above route you'd skip waypoint 2 as you are now closer to waypoint 3.




Here's a short quote from the Sendero GPS manual, ignore the
keystrokes, but the information is still the same.


Default is off. Before following a route that may wrap back around
itself. As in
a circular route or one with hair pin turns, switch to the "Follow
Sequential Route"
by pressing
R, then M, then F
. This ensures that Waypoints will be announced in numeric order. No
points will be skipped or triggered even if they are closer to you
than the next numeric point.
This is particularly useful for manually created routes which are far
more likely
to meander - for example a route that goes North on the left side of
the street for 3 blocks then back South on the opposite side of the
same street.
Route Following Mode: R, M, M

Hope this makes sense.

Hi,
If you are talking about manual route creating, currently this cannot
be done in Mobile Geo.


Hope this helps.

Please send either myself or Chris the route which causes this error and 
we will look into the problem.
Thanks

Hello,

I am having a problem and I hope someone can tell me what I am doing
wrong.  I tried to create a route from home to work.

At home, I turned on the Holux, started the program, and made sure the
Holux was getting a signal. I then did an r then an o to open a route. 
It
was a new route so I gave it a name "home to work".  All seemed fine.
The
PK prattled appropriately throughout the trip. When I arrived at work, 
I
pressed an r, s, saved the route.  Again, all seemed happy.

When I try to open this route now, I get "exception: command 399 at
30247,
access violation... I think it wants to say more but my PK locks up at this point. When I look at the file with the PK's file manager, I only 
have a file of 216 bytes.
Is this not the right way to create a route? Can someone tell me what I 
am doing wrong?

Thanks,
Judy
