zSpeedometer Screen
The Speedometer screen displays your 
speed in a familiar graphical format. There 
are four additional data fields at the top of 
the display that can be customized to 
display the data that you need.
The bottom of the screen contains a trip 
odometer that will record the distance 
travelled since the last time the odometer 
was reset.
Press W or X to alternate the information at 
the top of the screen between the 
destination information (

Accessing the Navigation Screens
The [ESC] key are used to step through the various navigation screens. If 
you are viewing one of the Navigation screens, pressing [ESC] will take 
you to the previous Navigation screen. If you are not viewing one of the 
Navigation screens, pressing [ESC] will return you to the last Navigation 
screen viewed.
Note:If you are inputting data, pressing [ESC] will return you to the 
last Navigation screen but your inputs will not be saved.
Waypoints
A waypoint is any...

51 To give more meaning to your waypoints, you can change the name 
and icon for each one. You can also add a text message to a waypoint 
These procedures are covered in the GPS Advanced Operations 
Section (page 96).
There is a limit to the number of waypoints you can store in the 
MYSTIC. The MYSTIC will store up to 500 user waypoints in memory. 
If you should ever get that many and need to input more, you will have 
to delete ones that you no longer need to make room.
Using GOTO Routes
A GOTO route is...

52 2. Select the Waypoint Category.
Use S and T to move the highlight through the list of waypoint 
categories. The first category in the list is 
User Waypoint. 
These are all the waypoints you have already entered into your 
MYSTIC. The remaining categories are ones that have waypoints 
which have been pre-loaded into your MYSTIC and are stored in 
permanent memory.
3. Select Find By.
There are two options of “Find By”: Alphabetical and Nearest To. 
Use  W or X to select the desired method. Selecting...

53 6. You are returned to the last Navigation screen viewed with some 
noticeable changes. If you were viewing the Map screen, you will 
now notice a thick line which is a graphical plot of the GOTO you 
just created. For other Navigation screens, the header bar 
changes to indicate that you are navigating to a destination. If you 
press [ESC] until you are viewing the Compass screen, the header 
bar now displays “To: (your destination)”, and all of the 
navigational information is displayed to provide...

Important: GOTO
 routes are not
 saved in memory when the  MYSTIC 
is turned off. If you are navigating on a  GOTO route and 
you need to turn the  MYSTIC off, you will need to re-enter 
the  GOTO . However,  Routes are 
stored in memory. If you 
need a  GOTO but expect to turn the  MYSTIC off before 
arriving, you might consider making a 1-leg Route using 
the Route menu. This is covered in the GPS Advanced 
Operation Section starting  on page 96.

Initializing your MYSTIC
When you turn the MYSTIC on for the first time, there is no GPS position 
information. Although you could let the unit calculate your present position 
automatically from the available satellites, it could initially take up to 20 
minutes, depending on the surrounding terrain. A better procedure is to 
manually initialize the GPS function to give it a head start.
This may seem a little confusing at first as why does a device that is used 
to compute its position need to know...

56 2. Use S or T to highlight your area, and 
press [ENTER].
3. Enter the Time and Date. The cursor 
appears at the first character in the time 
field. To set the time:
a. Use S and T to increase or 
decrease the number.
b. Use W and X to move the cursor to 
the next or previous number 
position. 
c. When the time is correct, press 
[ENTER] to move to the date field. 
Set the date using the same 
procedure as setting the time.
d. When you are finished setting the 
date, press [ENTER] to highlight 
the...

57 The VHF screen is now displayed and the 
MYSTIC begins acquiring the data from the 
satellites. Once the first position fix has been 
computed you can set up the other 
parameters for the MYSTIC GPS functions.
