direction.
Menu Page
You’ve already seen the first four pages in action by
acquiring satellites, marking a position and navigating to
a destination. The last page available from the main GPS
page sequence is the menu page, which provides access
to the GPSCOM 170’s waypoint management, route,
track log and setup features. The 11 submenus are divid-
ed into categories by function.
To select a submenu from the menu page:
1. Press
P
or
Q
until the menu page appears.
2. Use the arrow keypad to highlight the submenu you
want to view.
3. Press
E
to access the submenu.
You’ve now gone through the basic operation of the
navigation portion of your new GPSCOM 170. Now let’s
move on to using the VHF radio.
Use the arrow keypad to
select a submenu from the
menu page. Press ENTER
to access the selected sub-
menu.
