Edit Name
You can assign a name to each waypoint. The name
can have up to eight characters. To do this, first select
the waypoint that you wish to name, then choose “EDIT
NAME” from the waypoint menu. A screen similar to
the one at right appears.
Press the up or down arrow keys to select the first
letter in the name. Press the right arrow key to high-
light the next position in the name. Repeat this se-
quence until you’ve entered all of the letters in the way-
point name. Press the ENT key to accept this name, the WPT key to
erase all characters in the name, or the EXIT key to leave this screen
without saving any changes.
Edit Icon
To change the icon assigned to a waypoint, first select
the waypoint, then choose “EDIT SYMBOL”. The screen
at right appears. Use the arrow keys to select the icon

ENT key. The waypoint now has the new icon.
WAYPOINT NAVIGATION
The GlobalMap 100 makes it easy to navigate to any waypoint. All you
have to do is select the waypoint (see page 31), then highlight the “GO TO

unit immediately shows navigation information to the waypoint on all navi-

also shows the direction of travel (track).

it in the waypoint database by using the map and cursor. To do this, first
switch to a map. Now move the cursor to the location that you want to
navigate to. Next, press the MENU key. A new, highlighted menu appears
