VIEW PRESET Keys

The VIEW PRESET keys are used to program your three favorite views for quick retrieval. Instead of using the VIEW key to cycle through every view to find the one you want, you can program the VIEW PRESET keys to display a specific view immediately. To program each VIEW PRESET

If the Cursor is active, pressing EXIT will remove the cursor from the display. Pressing Exit will also remove any display boxes or waypoint thumbnail views from the screen.
