Averaging a Waypoint

Averaging a waypoint location can increase the accuracy
of a waypoint at your current location by taking multiple
position readings and averaging the results.
To average a waypoint:
Select Average Location from the options list or
the Avg button on the Mark Waypoint page when
marking a new waypoint only. Press the Thumb
Stick In to activate the Averaging Page. The
longer you allow averaging to run the greater the
location accuracy. Press Save when done.

Projecting a Waypoint

Projecting a waypoint from any map item (another
waypoint, etc.) allows you to establish a new waypoint on

To project a waypoint:
1. Select a map item from the Find Menu.

button at the top of the Information Page. Highlight
