Waypoint Created from a Map Feature
Creating Waypoints Manually
You can manually enter position coordinates to create a waypoint using the Points
tab on the Main Menu. This method is useful for creating a waypoint at a specic
latitude/longitude position from a chart or other source.
CAUTION: When entering a waypoint manually, be sure that the MFD is set
to the same position format and map datum as the paper chart or coordinates’
source. Entering coordinates into the GPSMAP 3206/3210 while it is set to
a datum different from the datum in which the coordinates were created can
result in an incorrect waypoint location.
You can
enter location
coordinates
manually.
