Creating Waypoints Graphically
You create waypoints graphically 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 is
displayed along the top of the map.
To create a new waypoint graphically:
1. Use the ROCKER to move the pointer to a 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, 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. Move the highlight back to OK, and press ENTER to confirm
the changes.
