Waypoints
A waypoint is simply an electronic "address," based on the latitude and
longitude of a position on the earth. A waypoint represents a location,
spot, or destination that can be stored in memory, then be recalled and
used later on for navigation purposes. Simply think of it as an elec-
tronic address. You can create a waypoint at the cursor position on the
map, or at your current position while you are navigating.
Create a Waypoint
These techniques use the Quick Save method, the fastest and easiest
way to create a waypoint.
Create Waypoint on Map
1. Use the arrow keys to move the cursor to the place where you want
to make a waypoint.
2. Press ENT | ENT . The waypoint is saved and automatically given a
name with a sequential number, such as "waypoint 001." The waypoint
symbol and number appear on the map.
Create Waypoint at Current Position
While you are traveling, press ENT | ENT . The waypoint is saved and
automatically given a name with a sequential number, such as "way-
point 002." The waypoint symbol and number appear on the map.
Create a Man Overboard Waypoint
This unit has a man overboard feature that shows navigation data to
the location where the feature was activated. To activate it, press the
ZOUT and ZIN keys at the same time. Your position at the time these
keys are pressed is used as the man overboard position. The unit auto-
matically begins navigating to the MOB waypoint. For further details,
see the subject Navigating Back to a Man Overboard Waypoint earlier
in this section.
