Using the Change Route Button on a dēzl™ 780 or dēzlCam™ 785
The Change Route button is used to calculate a new route, if possible, to avoid something ahead of you. The device will take you off the current route and will attempt to get you back on your original route as quickly as possible. If the route you are currently navigating is the only reasonable option according to your navigation settings, the device might not calculate a detour.
The Change Route button can be accessed on the device's View Map menu by touching the wrench icon to open the map tools.
Change Route will give the following detour options:
- Detour
- Detour by Distance
- 1/2 Mile
- 2 Miles
- 5 Miles
- Detour By Road(s) in Route
The 1/2 Mile, 2 Miles, and 5 Miles option will navigate you off the route for the selected distance.
The Detour By Road(s) on Route option will provide a list of the roads along your route that you can select to specifically detour around.
You have the ability to customize shortcuts to various other device features using Map Tools. This allows for quick access to additional information while navigating. The information will show on the right side of the View Map screen.
To add or remove Change Route from the map tools:
- Open the device's Settings menu
- Touch Navigation
- Touch Map & Vehicle
- Touch Map Tools
- Touch in the box next to Change Route to either place or remove a checkmark
The Change Route tool will now be available from the View Map page. On the View Map screen, touch the wrench icon in the lower right corner to access the map tools.
