Garmin eTrex Legend
GARMIN's lowest cost mapping GPS with WAAS!
The Legend includes a built-in Americas Highway basemap for North, South and Central America, containing lakes, rivers, cities, interstates, highways, coastlines and interstate exit information (exit information for USA only). [NOTE: Legend models available outside North America may contain the Atlantic or Pacific basemap instead] The 8 megabytes of built-in (non-expandable) memory allows the Legend to accept downloaded map data from Garmin's entire line of MapSource CDROMs including MapSource MetroGuide which offers residential street-level detail, addresses and points of interest.
Mapping detail is presented on a high resolution liquid crystal display (268 x 160 pixel, FSTN).
The waterproof Legend has a rocker switch on the front which allows for quick and accurate map panning, as well as selection and enter functions. As a result of new processing speed, built-in memory and the high resolution display, eTrex Legend offers full-feature navigation capabilities. Satellite status, navigation displays and mapping provide details for both the basic and advanced user. Position format may be selected including Latitude/Longitude, MGRS and Loran TDs. The Legend meets the IEC 529 IPX7 waterproofness standard (submersible for 30 minutes at a depth of 1 meter) NB: Electronics are protected if immersed, but battery compartment may get wet. Make sure batteries and compartment are dry before using.

The Legend can provide position accuracy to less than 3 metres when receiving WAAS corrections. |
MARINE POINTS OF INTEREST!
• Marine navigational aids (Americas Marine Points of Interest) are pre-loaded into the built-in user memory from the factory (not part of the basemap).
• If MapSource data is loaded to the Legend, the preloaded Marine POI database will be erased. To recover this data the Preloaded Map Database file can be downloaded from GARMIN's web site.
• MapSource data and the Marine POI database cannot be loaded at the same time.
