Selecting a ‘Go To’ Graphically
A graphical ‘Go To’ may be used to select one of three items from the map display: an existing
waypoint, an on-screen map item (roads, rivers, cities, navaids, etc.), or a new map point (non-map
item). If you are selecting a map item as the ‘Go To’ destination, the GPSMAP 168 Sounder will
automatically use the name of the map item, but the point will not be stored in the waypoint list. See
page 45 for creating waypoints using map items. If you are selecting a new map point (non-map item)
as the ‘Go To’ destination, the GPSMAP 168 Sounder will automatically create or move a waypoint
named ‘MAP’ at the cursor position.
To activate an existing waypoint or map item as a ‘Go To’ from the map display:
1. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight the waypoint or map item on screen and press NAV/MOB.
2. You will see ‘Go To <waypoint name>’, then press ENTER/MARK. You may also highlight the
waypoint or map item, press ENTER/MARK, highlight ‘Go To’ from options at the bottom of the
window and press ENTER/MARK.
To activate a new map point (non-map item) as a ‘Go To’ from the map display:
1. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to move the arrow cursor to the desired position.
2. Press NAV/MOB, you will see ‘Go To MAP Point’ highlighted, then press ENTER/MARK.
Choose a waypoint from either the
‘By Name’ or ‘Nearest’ tab list.
The waypoint or map item name
will automatically appear when high-
lighted and NAV/MOB is pressed.
