Going to a Destination

The GPSMAP 130 provides four ways to navigate to a destination: GOTO,

MOB, TracBack and route navigation. The most basic method of selecting a

destination is the GOTO function, which lets you select a waypoint as your desti-

nation and quickly sets a direct course from your present position. The

key

can be used in three ways: from a list of waypoints, graphically from the map dis-

play and from a list of GOTO options. Pressing the

key once displays a list of

all waypoints in memory, from which you can select a single destination waypoint.

To activate a GOTO from the waypoint list:

1. Press the

key.

2. Select a waypoint and press

Selecting a GOTO Graphically

Pressing the

key twice allows you to graphically select an on-screen way-

point, navaid or cursor position as a destination. A graphical GOTO may be used

to select one of three options from the map display: an existing waypoint, an on-

screen navaid, or a cursor position. If you are selecting a navaid or a new position

as the GOTO destination, the GPSMAP 130 will automatically create or move the

waypoint named ‘MAP’ at the navaid or map position.

To activate a GOTO from the map display:

1. Press the

key twice.

2. To select an existing user waypoint, highlight the waypoint on screen and press

3. To select a navaid, highlight the navaid on screen and press

. The GOTO new way-

point page will appear, displaying the navaid position as a ‘MAP’ waypoint, with the

navaid symbol and text as the default icon and waypoint comment. Press

to save

the waypoint and begin navigation.

4. To select a cursor position as your destination, move the arrow cursor to the desired

position and press

. The GOTO new waypoint page will appear and display the posi-

tion as the ‘MAP’ waypoint. Press

to save the waypoint and begin navigation.

A. Press GOTO once to select a destination from a list

of waypoints.

B. Press GOTO twice to select a destination waypoint

with the map cursor. If you are not selecting an

existing waypoint as your destination, a new way-

point named ‘MAP’ will be created. Keep in mind

that the MAP waypoint will be overwritten for each

MAP GOTO. This allows you to navigate to on-

screen navaids without permanently storing the

navaid as a waypoint. If you want to save the MAP

waypoint, rename it following the steps on page 39.
