The Rino 520/530 can manage up to 50 contacts at any

time. Each time you receive a signal from a contact, your

map is updated showing their new position. A Track Log

of their movement is created and shown on your map

(see the “Track Logs” section). After a contact has been

established, a “ Updated” message briefly

appears at the bottom of your display each time the

contact updates.
All contacts are listed on the Find Contact Page and are

also displayed in the Contact Bar on the Map Page (see

the “Map Page” section). Contacts behave like waypoints

and count towards the 500 maximum waypoint total.

If the contact did not have a GPS location on the last

transmission, the last known position appears overlayed

by a question mark in the Location field. To view the

contact details (such as Direction and Distance from

Current Location, Elevation, Location, and Notes that

have up to 30 characters), use the Thumb Stick to move

to the next data field to add or change information.

To accept a new contact:

1. When a new contact is received, the New Contact

page automatically appears.

2. Highlight

OK and press the Thumb Stick In. If you

do not select

OK, the contact is not saved.

Use the

Thumb Stick to view or edit

different contact data.
