This section explains some of the more common
operations you can perform with your GPSMAP
60CSx including creating and using waypoints, using
the Find Menu, and how to create and use tracks and
routes.

Creating and Using Waypoints

Waypoints are locations or landmarks you record and
store in your GPS. They are locations you might want
to return to later. You can add waypoints to routes and
even create a Go To directly to the selected waypoint.
Waypoints can be created using three methods. You
can press the MARK key while at a location, create a
waypoint on the Map Page, or enter coordinates for a
waypoint manually.

Marking Your Current Location

Use the MARK key to quickly capture your current
location to create a new waypoint. You must have a
valid position (2D or 3D) fix to mark your current
location.
