Map Page Options

Many of the 400W-series functions are menu
driven. Each of the main pages has an options menu,
allowing you to custom tailor the corresponding page

which specifically relate to that page. A map page
options menu provides additional settings to customize
the map page and additional features related specifi-
cally to the map page.
To display the map page options menu, press
MENU (with the map page displayed).
The following options are available: "Setup Map?",
"Measure Dist?", "Data Fields Off?", "Change Fields?"
and "Restore Defaults?".
