Accessing Waypoints in the Database — All stored waypoints, whether
user-input or preloaded, can be found in the Waypoint Database. You 
will need to access waypoints in the database whenever you are editing 
waypoints, activating a GOTO route or creating a multileg route.

Selecting Waypoints from the Alphabetical List. 
If Alphabetical is selected as the “Find By” option 
for the database a slightly different screen from the 
Nearest list is displayed. A keyboard is graphically 
displayed allowing you to enter the name of the 
waypoint or map object you are looking for. You 
need not enter the entire name, just enough letters 
to narrow the search down. (A minimum of four 
characters is recommended.) Selecting “OK” and pressing enter brings 
up a listing of the waypoints, starting with the one you entered at the 
top. 
Note: When selecting the User category, the Meridian does not use the 
keyboard display.
