Creating a Waypoint by Entering Coordinates

You can manually enter location coordinates to create a waypoint.

This method is useful for creating a waypoint at a specic latitude/

longitude location from a chart. You can manually change the

location coordinates in the New Waypoint Page to create a new

waypoint or use the Create Waypoint selection in the User Points

tab options menu.

To create a new waypoint by entering location

coordinates:

1. Press and hold ENTER/MARK to create a waypoint (or use

your favorite method discussed in previous sections). The

new waypoint is created with the next available waypoint

number and the receiver’s last known location as the default

location.

To change the location of a waypoint, highlight the

character you want to change in the Location eld.

Press up or down on the ROCKER to change the

character. Repeat until the new location is entered.

2. On the New Waypoint Page, use the ROCKER to highlight the

Location eld, and press ENTER. Use the ROCKER to enter

the location coordinates, and press ENTER when nished.

3. To change any of the other information, highlight the

appropriate eld, and press ENTER. Use the ROCKER to

enter the new information.

4. After entering your changes, highlight OK, and press ENTER.
