Getting Started
Reviewing/Creating
Map Waypoints
You’ll now have a clearer picture of the route you are navigating. Keep in mind that whenever you
do exceed the usable range of the built-in database or the optional MapSource or BlueChart data in use,
the range fi eld will display ‘OVERZOOM’ to indicate that you should exercise extreme caution using the
map data. Press the IN key to zoom into the 2 nm scale. Now that you’ve zoomed in a little closer to
your route, you can pan ahead of your vessel with the cursor to review map items and create on-screen
waypoints. Try moving the cursor to highlight the ‘TOUR3’ waypoint— just use the ARROW KEYPAD
to move the cursor as close as possible to the waypoint. (To move the cursor in small increments, try
a series of short key presses.)
Once the cursor is over the TOUR3 waypoint, you’ll notice that the waypoint symbol and name will
become highlighted. The data fi eld at the top of the page will display the waypoint name, the range and
bearing from your present position, and the coordinates for the waypoint.
To review the waypoint page for a selected waypoint:
1. Press the ENTER/MARK key.
2. To return to the Map Page, press ENTER/MARK again or press QUIT.
The cursor can also be used to create new waypoints right from the map display.
To create a new waypoint using the cursor:
1. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to move the cursor as close as possible to the following position:
N35º 02.914; W 076º 26.152’ (Use the data window to verify the cursor position.)
2. Press and release the ENTER/MARK key to capture the cursor position. Do not hold the button
down, as doing so will mark your present position, not the map position.
3. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight the waypoint symbol fi eld to the left of the waypoint
name/number.
4. Press ENTER/MARK to access the symbol page.
5. Press UP or DOWN on the ARROW KEYPAD to select the ‘Shipwreck’ symbol and press
ENTER/MARK to confi rm.
6. Highlight ‘OK’ at the bottom and ENTER/MARK again to fi nish.
The waypoint will ‘highlight’
when the cursor is moved
over it.
Waypoint numbering
will start with 001 and
continually count up,
even if the waypoint
name has been deleted.
