eXplorist 200 GPS Receiver 4 Installing the Batteries The eXplorist 200 uses two AA batteries that are installed as shown in the accompanying diagram. Be sure to observe the proper polarity when installing the batteries. Under normal operating conditions you can expect to get more than 14 hours of battery life when using fresh batteries.
5 The eXplorist 200 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 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 the features 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.

25 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 you can go back to them in the future. This is the fundamental starting point for any GPS navigator .
Points of Interest 26 Marking Y our Position (Personalized) Normally , marking you 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 . Y ou are able to change the icon, change the name, and create a message.
Making POIs for Locations other then your 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 then your present position, by moving the cursor around the map to a place 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 POI’ s that you have saved as well as background map POI’ s that came with your eXplorist can be accessed using the POI database.
Searching for a Preloaded POI using Nearest Searching for a preloaded POI using the Nearest option is similar to searching for user - entered POI’ s with an additional step.
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 POI’ s in the database, an additional step has been added to help you find the POI you are looking for quicker .
Editing a User -Created POI POI’ s that you have saved can be edited to change the icon, 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. 1. Press MENU . 2.
Deleting a User -Created POI POI’ s that you have saved can be deleted using this operation. Y ou may want to delete a POI to make it easier to search for a POI you created if you have a lot of them. POI’ s that have been deleted cannot be restored.
Points of Interest 34 V iewing a User -Created POI on the Map Screen POI’ s 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 .
Points of Interest 35 Copying a Preloaded POI POI’ s that have been preloaded as part of the background map can be saved as a user - entered POI. This does not delete a preloaded POI (preloaded POI’ s can not be deleted) it just copies it to the My Points of Interest portion of the database.
V iewing a Preloaded POI on the Map Screen POI’ s that have been preloaded as part of the background map 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 .
37 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 easiest, and most common form of a route is a GOTO route.
Routes 38 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 41 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 an empty list for your route and you can use the POI’ s 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. GOTO’ s 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 the route, each leg with its own destination. If during your travels you wanted 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 .
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. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight the name of the route you want to delete.
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 49 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. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight the name of the route you want to view .
50 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 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 starting it up again. 1. Press MENU . 2. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight Track Log . 3. Press ENTER . 4. With Active T rack highlighted, press MENU .
T rack Logs 52 Starting a New Active T rack Log Before you can start a new active track log, you need to stop the one that is presently recording. 1. Press MENU . 2. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight Track Log . 3. Press ENTER . 4. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight Active Track .
T rack Logs 53 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 54 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 55 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 on using a BackT rack or if you plan on saving the upcoming track log that you 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 in to a multi-leg route that is saved in your route list. From here the route can be edited if you need too. Note: Convert to Route is available for both active track logs and track logs you have saved.
T rack Logs 57 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 that 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.
60 The Preferences portion of the eXplorist provides the tools to personalize the eXplorist to your usage and needs. There are tools that are designed to give you full flexibility over its use as well as performing maintanence on the internal memory should the need arise.
Restarting the GPS Restarting the GPS provides a means of giving the eXplorist information about its approximate position, long time GPS receiver users will know this option as initializing. T o understand when you would use this option, a breif explanation of how the eXplorist works will be helpful.
