This section explains some of the more common 

operations you will perform with your GPSMAP 

76Cx including creating and using waypoints, tracks, 

and routes using the Find Menu.

Waypoints are locations or landmarks you record and 

store in your GPS. They are locations you might want 

to return to later. You can add waypoints to routes and 

even create a Go To directly to the selected waypoint.
Waypoints can be created using three methods. 

You can press the 

ENTER/MARK key while at a 

location, create a waypoint on the Map Page, or enter 

coordinates for a waypoint manually.

Use the ENTER/MARK key to quickly capture your 

current location to create a new waypoint. You must 

have a valid position (2D or 3D) fix to mark your 

current location.

1.  Press and hold the 

ENTER/MARK key until 

the Mark Waypoint Page appears. A default 

three-digit name and symbol are assigned to 

the new waypoint.

information, highlight

To change any information on the Mark 

Waypoint Page, highlight the appropriate field, 

and press 

ENTER to open the on-screen 

keypad. After entering and confirming your 

changes, highlight 

OK, and press ENTER.
