Trip Planning on Your Pocket PC
You can use CoPilot on your Pocket PC for trip planning whether or not the
GPS receiver is connected and receiving data. Planning Mode allows you to run
a trip on your Pocket PC even when you're not in your car.You'll get driving
directions and maps that you can use for reference before your trip begins.
1. First turn on your Pocket PC
and launch CoPilot (tap Start >
Programs> CoPilot). In the
Welcomescreen, tap the Mode
menu and select Planning.
2. The Plan Trip screen will open.
Tap Add Stop,then add stops
to your trip as you would in
Guidance Mode. To pick a
stop from the map,see p. 46.
3. Note that you should enter stops in
reverse order (destination first,origin
last) — the first stop (0) on the Plan
Trip itinerary is the starting point of
your trip. Tap Get Directions when
you have entered all your stops.
4. Now you’ll see your route on the
map. You can tap the zoom
buttons on the toolbar to zoom
your view in and out.
