Creating Waypoints Graphically
Waypoints can also be created from the map display. To mark
a map location or map item, select the location or item with the
pointer and press ENTER/MARK. When selecting a location or
map item, a description of the point, its distance and bearing from
your current location and the latitude/longitude of the pointer are
displayed along the top of the map.
To create a new waypoint graphically:
1. Use the
ROCKER to move the pointer to the map location.
If you want to create the new waypoint at an on-screen map
item, highlight the map item on the display.
2. Press and release
ENTER/MARK to capture the pointer
location. Do not hold the button down, as doing so marks
your present location, not the map location.
If you are not using a map item to create a waypoint, go to
step 4.
3. Highlight
Create Wpt or OK, and press ENTER.
4. To accept the waypoint with the default name and symbol,
press
ENTER.
5. To change the name, symbol, or add a comment or depth,
highlight the appropriate field, and press
ENTER. Make
your changes, and press
ENTER when finished.
6. After entering and confirming your changes, move the
highlight back to
OK, and press ENTER.
