This section explains some of the more common
operations you will perform with your GPSMAP
76CSx including creating and using waypoints, tracks,
and routes using the Find Menu.

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 ENTER/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 ENTER/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.
