Selecting and entering Data

As we progress through this Owner’s Manual you will

often be directed to press a specified Interface key or

highlight a field. When you are directed to press a key,

you should press, then release the key. If the key needs

to be held down for a period of time, the instructions

will tell you. The position of the highlight is controlled

by the ROCKER key. When a field is highlighted, a

dark strip encompasses the field.

Simulator Mode

The Simulator Mode is great for practicing with the

unit while inside and satellite signals are not available.

When the GPSMAP 76 is in Simulator Mode, the GPS

receiver is turned off, conserving battery power. The

unit cannot be used for actual navigation.

NOTE: Do not try to navigate in Simulator Mode.

While in the Simulator Mode, the GPS receiver is

turned off. Any Satellite Signal Strength Indicators

displayed are only simulations and do not indicate

the strength of actual satellite signals.
