Garmin GPS 165TSO GPS Receiver User Manual


 
The GPS 165’s AutoStore
TM
function provides another method of creating user
waypoints. AutoStore is used to instantly capture your present position as a user way-
point with a touch of a button, and add the new waypoint to the end of a specified
route if desired.
To perform an AutoStore:
1. Press
N
and rotate
O
to display the Position page.
2. Press
E
to mark your position.
This will display the ‘Save’ waypoint screen which will allow you to rename the
waypoint if you would like and choose the route to which it should be added. The
GPS 165 will assign the next available three digit number as the default waypoint
name, preceded by a ‘+’ sign (this will help you differentiate AutoStore waypoints
from other user waypoints).
To change the name or the route of an AutoStore waypoint:
1. Rotate
O
to select the name or route number field.
2. Use
K
and
O
to enter the name or route number.
3. Press
E
to accept.
4. Press
E
to confirm the ‘ok?’ prompt.
If the waypoint name is already used for another waypoint, you will be informed
with the message ‘WPT exists ______’. The default waypoint number will be redis-
played, and you may enter a different name The new waypoint will only be added to
a route if the desired route number is manually entered in the route field.
