Garmin 60CSx Main menu

B esides the many submenu pages, the GPSmap 60CSx also has an enhanced main menu. This main menu offers extra functionality possibilities such as; Tracks, Routes, Highways, Settings, Proximity, Calendar, Calculator, Stopwatch, Sun & Moon, Hunt & Fish and Games. Through 'Tracks' you can save and store your route with extreme ease by selecting 'on' or 'off'. In total you can save 10,000 track points divided over 20 tracks. The software lets you backup tracks so in fact a lot more than 20 tracks can be saved. Reproduction of the routes can be adjusted at will, for example, to give a route its own colour or to decide the interval. Upon doing so you can view the route on a map.

Highway menu

Garmin 60CSx Main menu

'Routes' offers the possibility of storing routes. Some 50 can be stored on the Garmin 60CSx. You can clearly define your route through the map or through the created waypoints. This enables you as a user, to go the same route twice without having to set everything from the start. One thousand waypoints can be created through the 60CSx. When you have made a route, you can also start navigation through this menu. The menu 'Highway' is able to show the same information as the Compass page, yet without rendering of the compass ring; instead it offers graphic support.

Calendar menu

Garmin Calendar function

The 'Calendar' function does not offer an organizing function but gives you handy information such as when the sun rises or sets (rendering in time), what the moon's position is and whether or not fish catching is recommended under the current moon position. The 'Sun & Moon' function lets you select a specific day for which more extensive information on the position of the sun and moon becomes available.
