You can assign a name to each waypoint. The name
can have up to eight characters. To do this, first select

Press the up or down arrow keys to select the first let-
ter in the name. Press the right arrow key to highlight
the next position in the name. Repeat this sequence

name. Press the ENT key to accept this name, the WPT key to erase all
characters in the name, or the EXIT key to leave this screen without sav-
ing any changes.

light the Position Edit menu and press the right arrow
key. The screen shown at right appears. Using the left

sition and change it using the up and down arrow keys.
When you’re ready to save this position and return to
the waypoint screen, press the ENT key. Press the EXIT
key to erase the menus and return to the navigation, plotter, or windows
screen. Note: You can also use this method to change the position of an
existing waypoint.

point menu. Now select the Symbol Edit menu. The
screen at right appears. Use the arrow keys to select
the icon that you want to assign to the waypoint, then
