Garmin GPSMAP 276C GPS Receiver User Manual


 
Using the GPSMAP 276C
This section explains how to enter and select information with the
GPSMAP 276C.
Understanding Features
The GPSMAP 276C advanced keypad system is designed to allow
quick, convenient selection of navigation options and data entry.
As you progress through this Owner’s Manual, you will be directed
to press a specific key or highlight a field on the screen. When you
are directed to press a key, you should press and quickly release the
key. If the key needs to be held down for a period of time to activate
a secondary function, the instructions will tell you to do so. When
a field is selected on the screen, it is highlighted in yellow. The
position of the highlight is controlled by the Rocker key.
The following terms are used throughout this manual:
Highlight—move the highlighted area on the screen Up, Down,
Left, or Right with the Rocker key to select individual fields.
Moving the highlight to a given location allows you to make a
selection, begin data entry, or scroll through a list.
Field—the location on a page where data or an option may be
entered and displayed. Select (highlight) a field using the Rocker
key to begin entering data or selecting options.
On-Screen Button—similar to “field.” Use the Rocker
key to
highlight a button and press ENTER to select the button.
Scroll Bar
—when viewing a list of items too long to display on
the screen, a scroll bar appears along the right side of the list.
The position of the scroll bar indicates which portion of the list is
currently displayed. To scroll through a list, press Up or Down on
the Rocker key.
Default—the factory setting saved in the unit’s memory. You can
change the settings as you like, but you can also revert to the factory
(default) settings when you select Restore Defaults.
