The available Waypoints are listed in the left hand column (alphanumeric); the right hand column lists the waypoints in the New Route, the number indicates its order in the route. The lower part of the table shows position, bearing and range of the highlighted waypoint.

You use the trackpad left/right to move control between the two columns (the highlighted title indicates the selected column) and the trackpad up/down to scroll through the lists.

4.Select a waypoint from the Waypoint List then go to the New Route col- umn and select a position in the list.

5.Press the INSERT WAYPOINT soft key to place the waypoint below the selected position in the Route. You can have up to 50 waypoints in a route.

6.To remove a waypoint from the New Route column, highlight the way- point and press the REMOVE WAYPOINT soft key.

Notes: (1)A waypoint cannot be used more than once in a route; those already used are displayed in a lighter shade of gray.

Notes: (2)The INSERT WAYPOINT or REMOVE WAYPOINT action adds/removes the highlighted waypoint to/from the Route column, regardless of which col- umn is selected.

7.When all waypoints have been entered, press the ACCEPT ROUTE soft key (or ENTER) to complete the route.

Note: The completed route is stored in the display unit and will be re-dis- played if you turn the unit off then on again. However, on an integrated system it is possible for a current route from another unit to overwrite this route; it is therefore recommended that you save the route, as described in Saving the Current Route on page 5-22.
