In the second step the list of points is displayed. The list is sorted according to

Select one waypoint from the list and Nesis will navigate to that point in the
direct-to mode.
When too many points are listed, they can always be filtered by name. Select
the name option on the top and enter a few letters of the waypoint. Number
of listed waypoints will rapidly decrease. Nesis searches both the name and
the waypoint description. Matching part of the name is marked in green.

Creating a Marker

The New Marker option from the first step is special. Use it to mark current
location. When selected, Nesis creates a marker – a special user waypoint.
The marker name is automatic (Mark 1, Mark 2, . . . ).
Markers are intended to be used during flight. Issue the Waypoint—New
Marker command in order to create a marker at some interesting place. Af-
ter landing, the marker can be edited with a different name, description or
coordinate.
