Add From Map
You can add waypoints from the map, even cre-
ate new ones. To do this, select “ADD FROM
MAP” from the menu as shown on the previous
page. A screen similar to the one at right appears.
Using the arrow keys, move the cursor to the
desired waypoint or location. Now press the ENT
key to add it to the route. If it’s an existing way-
point, it will be added to the route. If you mark a
location with the cursor that isn’t a waypoint, the
unit will create a waypoint and add it to the route.
To add another location or waypoint to the route,
move the cursor to that location and press the
ENT key. When you’re finished, press the EXIT
key. The screen below right appears.
The total route distance shows at the bottom of
the screen. Continue selecting waypoints until all
of the waypoints in the route are on the list. Press
the EXIT key to return to the Route menu. Your
route is now saved in memory. Press the EXIT
key to erase the menus.
Delete a Waypoint from the Route
To remove a waypoint from a route, first select the route, then select the
waypoint that you want to delete and press the right arrow key. Highlight
the “Delete” label on this menu and press the right arrow key.  The unit
returns to the route list with the waypoint removed from the list. (Note:
This doesn’t delete the waypoint from the database, it simply removes it
from the route.)
Waypoint Statistics
By default, this unit shows the distance and bearing from each waypoint
in the route to the next. It will also show estimated time en route (ETE),
estimated time of arrival (ETA), or the waypoint names (NAMES). To view
the different statistics, highlight the “SHOW INFO-DIS/BRG” label, then
press the left or right arrow key until the desired statistic appears.
