Using the Cursor to Mark and Goto Waypoints
During panning, the crosshair represents a target
position right on the Map Page, with the range and bear-
ing to the target displayed at the top corners of the screen.
You can also use the target crosshair to mark a new way-
point position or as a GOTO destination right from the
map field.
To mark the target crosshair as a new waypoint:
1. Pan to the desired position on the map and
press MARK .
2. Enter a name and/or route number, and press ENTER .
You can also use the target crosshair as an instant
GOTO destination. This feature is similar to the MOB
mode, and will allow you to mark and instantly set a
course for a new waypoint called 'MAP'.
To go to the target crosshair:
1. Place the target crosshair on the desired location.
2. Press GOTO , and press ENTER .

it because it will be overwritten the next time a GOTO
is performed using the target crosshair.
