+KYtrex Posted June 2, 2003 Share Posted June 2, 2003 After reading and searching the forums, I have found several shortcuts and secrets for my Garmin V. I thought this would be a good place to list them all together. If anyone knows of any more tricks, feel free to list them here. Any brands' tricks are welcome. Master Reset...Hold Quit and Out while powering the unit On. I have also heard pressing Menu while powering On would do the same, although I haven't tried it. Self-Test...Hold Enter and power the unit On. Change Screen Orientation...Hold Page for 2 seconds. Auto Routing to Home...Press Find twice. OKsubstitution...On a data entry screen, you can press Page, and it will work instead of scrolling over to OK. Any others? KYtrex ----------------- Do it today because tomorrow it may be illegal.

+Prime Suspect Posted October 20, 2003 Share Posted October 20, 2003 eTrex Vista shortcuts (should work on some other models as well): Press and hold the click-stick to set a waypoint. Press and hold the Page button to toggle on/off the electronic compass. Press and hold the Find button to display the next waypoint on an active route, or the target waypoint when using GoTo.
