Using the Cursor to Mark and Goto Waypoints

During panning, the crosshair represents a target

position right on the Map Page, with the range and bear-
ing to the target displayed at the top corners of the screen.
You can also use the target crosshair to mark a new way-
point position or as a GOTO destination right from the
map field.

To mark the target crosshair as a new waypoint:

1. Pan to the desired position on the map and

press

MARK.

2. Enter a name and/or route number, and press

ENTER.

You can also use the target crosshair as an instant

GOTO destination. This feature is similar to the MOB
mode, and will allow you to mark and instantly set a
course for a new waypoint called ‘MAP’.

To go to the target crosshair:

1. Place the target crosshair on the desired location.

2. Press

GOTO, and press ENTER.

Note:

Note: To save the MAP waypoint, be sure to rename

it because it will be overwritten the next time a GOTO
is performed using the target crosshair.

Accessing Map Option Windows

You can access four map option pages, (Map Setup,

Track Setup, Find City, and City Setup) from the Map Page
by pressing

ENTER

, except when panning or pointing.

To select a map option:

1. Highlight the desired option and press

ENTER.

Map Setup Page and Orientation

The map setup page lets you select the Map Page

and satellite sky view orientation, as well as specify what
items are displayed. The Map and Satellite Pages may
be oriented to ‘NORTH UP,’ ‘TRACK UP’ (the direc-
tion of current travel), or ‘DTK UP’ (desired track up,
or the direction of the desired course). The default set-
ting is ‘TRACK UP’.

To change the map orientation:

1. Highlight the ‘map’ field and press

ENTER.

2. Select the desired orientation and press

ENTER.
