line pointing at your reference point. Remember to keep the iFINDER
level as you rotate it, so that the back of the unit is parallel to the
ground.
4. The line will travel all the way around the circle at least once, and
may go twice around the circle. Continue rotating your iFINDER in
time with the movement of the line until the words "Calibration is
Done" appear at the top of the screen. When you see this, you're fin-
ished! Your iFINDER should now report accurate compass headings.
Set Hunting Waypoint
A waypoint is simply an electronic "address," based on the latitude and
longitude of a position on the earth. You can navigate to a waypoint.
Hunting Mode allows you to save waypoints and use a unique set of
hunting symbols to represent them. Once a waypoint exists, you can
edit it by changing the symbol and name, but we describe that in more
detail in the Advanced Mode section.
To save a hunting waypoint at your current location or cursor position:
1. Press
ENT, and the NEW WAYPOINT menu appears. 2. Use the ↓ and ↑
keys to scroll through the list and select the waypoint type. 3. Press
ENT and the NEW WAYPOINT NAME menu appears. 4. To accept the default
name (which is numbered automatically), press
ENT and the waypoint
appears on screen with the default name.
If you wanted a different name before you pressed that final Enter, use
this method to spell it out in the New Waypoint Name menu: the first
character is highlighted, so press ↑ or ↓ to scroll through a circular list
containing the alphabet, numbers and punctuation symbols. When the
first character is correct, press → to move to the second character, then
press ↑ or ↓ again to select the correct character. Press → to the next
character and repeat the process until you have spelled out the desired
waypoint name, then press
ENT.
Navigate to a Waypoint
Earlier we described how to select an item with the cursor. If you prac-
ticed with the Quick Reference you already know that you can navigate
to a waypoint or anything else on the map by selecting it with the cur-
sor and using the Go To Cursor command. Here is another way to use
the cursor and navigate to a waypoint with the Go To Waypoint com-
mand:
1. Zoom/scroll the map to find a waypoint. Use the arrow keys to center
the cursor cross-hair over the waypoint to select it.
2. Press
ENT|ENT|EXIT and follow the steering indicators to the waypoint.
