Proximity Waypoint List
The second waypoint submenu list available from the 'Points' tab is the 'Proximity' list, which lets
you defi ne an alarm circle around a stored waypoint position, and can be used to help you avoid reefs,
rocks or restricted waters. Up to ten waypoints may be listed, with a maximum alarm radius of 99.99
nautical or statute miles or kilometers. If a proximity alarm circle overlaps with an existing alarm circle,
a 'Proximity Overlaps Another Proximity Waypoint' message will appear. Since the unit will only alert
for one of the overlap points, use caution when navigating in these areas. If you enter an alarm circle
overlap, you will only be alerted to the closest proximity waypoint.
