Mark Key; Goto/Man Overboard Key - Humminbird HELIX 5 SI GPS Operation Manual

MARK Key

Press the MARK key while in any view to mark the position of a waypoint. The
MARK key function works if you have the GPS receiver connected.
• Active Cursor: The waypoint will be marked at the cursor location.
• Without Active Cursor: The waypoint will be marked at the boat location.
• If Screen Snapshot is active, a waypoint will be created, and a screen snapshot will also
be saved to the optional-purchase Micro SD Card (see Views: Snapshot and Recording
View). Navigation is not affected by the Screen Snapshot feature.
NOTE: If Screen Snapshot is enabled but there is not a GPS receiver connected, pressing the MARK
key will capture the screen image and display an error saying that a GPS position fix is required to
create a waypoint.
NOTE: You must have an optional-purchase Micro SD Card installed for the screen snapshot feature
to work.

GOTO/Man Overboard Key

The GOTO/MOB key has multiple functions, depending on the situation:
• Active Cursor: Press the GOTO key while in any view to create a waypoint and start
navigation towards that waypoint.
• Without Active Cursor: Press the GOTO key to display the saved waypoints list, and then
highlight a waypoint. Press the RIGHT Cursor key to begin navigation.
• Man Overboard: Press and hold the GOTO key for more than 1.5 seconds to activate the
Man Overboard (MOB) function. Once MOB is activated, any current navigation will be
cancelled and the current route will be discarded without notification (see Introduction
to Navigation: Man Overboard (MOB) Navigation).
