WAYPOINT NAVIGATION

HOW TO SAVE A WAYPOINT

Waypoints are locations on the earth's surface that you wish to go or return
to. Waypoints are useful for marking shipwrecks, hot fishing spots, buoys,
and other fishing or navigation locations. Storing waypoints makes it easy
to return to any point in the world by simply pressing a few buttons. The
GlobalMap 2000 can store up to 250 waypoints. You can store your
present position or the cursor position as a waypoint or enter latitude/
longitude positions as waypoints.
(Quick Save Feature)
You can save your present position as a waypoint with only one key press.
This "Quick Save" feature lets you easily save the position of a wreck or
other locations.
To save your present position
as waypoint, simply press the
WAYPT QUICKSAVE key. The
first available waypoint number
is stored with the present posi-
tion. The unit displays the way-
point on the map and stores the
position in the waypoint list. The
number shown on the map is
the number assigned to it on
the waypoint list. See below for
more information on storing
waypoints.
Waypoint Save - View and Save Method
The "Quick Save" feature doesn't let you select the waypoint number. You
have to use the next available number when using that method, plus you
can only save your present position. The View and Save method gives you
far more options. (Note: You can store a position under a waypoint number
that already has a position assigned to it using this method.) To save a
location as a waypoint, first press the WAYPT/ROUTE key. A new menu
appears. Now press the key next to the "Waypoints" label. The screen
shown at the top of the next page appears.
The list of waypoints shows on the right side of the screen. The first
waypoint number in the list appears at the top of the page. It's highlighted
by a black box. This is the number that the position will be stored under.
To switch to a different number, simply press the down arrow key. If the
