Garmin Precedus GPS Receiver User Manual


 
Entering a
Destination
Waypoint
With a seed position and the current time and date set, the
Precedus is ready to begin navigating a trip. Prepare for trip
navigation by entering a destination waypoint.
1. Press the button.
The GOTO Nearest Waypoint function
screen is displayed with the distance and
bearing from your present position to
the indicated waypoint.
2. Select a destination waypoint. Use the
buttons to change the
highlighted character in the waypoint
identifier. The buttons
move the highlight on the screen to
select the next character to change.
Note
Waypoints are stored in the unit’s built-in
database. By moving the highlight with the
buttons to ARPT and pressing the
buttons, you can change the type of
destination waypoint to select: airport, NDB,
VOR, INT, or USER (user created). For
instance, with ARPT indicated as the type of
destination waypoint, only airports show on the
display as you select identifier characters.
