Saving a New Position

To save a position other than the cursor’s or the present position as a waypoint, first press the WPT key. The “Find Waypoint” menu appears. “My Waypoints” is high- lighted. Press the right arrow key to move to the Subcategory sec- tion. Now highlight “New” and press the ENT key. The screen at right appears.

A waypoint can be created from your current position, the cursor position (if activated), a position that you enter, a position averaged over time, and a projected position, using only distance and bearing from your present position.

Current Position and Entered Position - Edit Waypoint Selecting “Current Position” or

“Entered Position” brings up the “Edit Waypoint” menu as shown at right. Choosing this option lets you change the defaults used when the quick-save method is used. You can name the waypoint, choose a symbol to mark the waypoint on the map, and use your current position shown in the latitude/longitude boxes or change it to a different one.

Use the cursor keys to highlight the section that you wish to change and press the ENT key to select it. When all the data is correct on this menu, press the EXIT key. This saves

the waypoint and opens the “Waypoint Information” screen as shown at right. This shows the waypoint that you just saved If all you wanted was to save the waypoint, press the EXIT key to erase the menu. See below for more information on the Waypoint Information menu.
