Selecting a Waypoint

Selecting a waypoint from the Waypoint List allows you to GOTO and
EDIT (symbol, name, position, erase) the waypoint. The Waypoint List
also provides options to make a new waypoint and transfer waypoints.

Positioning the cursor over a waypoint selects that waypoint and accesses
the waypoint soft keys. These keys enable you to go to (described in
Following Routes and Going to Waypoints on page 3-32), edit (symbol,
name, position), erase or move the waypoint.

To select a waypoint using the Waypoint List:

1. Press MARK, followed by the WAYPOINT LIST soft key.

The Waypoint List and associated soft keys are displayed, see
Figure 3-18.

2. Use the trackpad to move the selection bar through the list to highlight

the required waypoint.
The selected waypoint can be edited via the displayed soft keys.

To select a waypoint using the cursor:

1. Move the cursor over the waypoint, until the letters WPT are dis-

played.
The Waypoint Data box (see Waypoint Data Display below) and the
soft keys are displayed as shown in Figure 3-23:

Figure 3-23: Waypoint Soft Keys

The selected waypoint can be edited via these soft keys.

Waypoint Data Display

In plotter mode, waypoint data can be viewed in two ways; either using
the context-sensitive cursor to select the waypoint and display the pop-up
Waypoint Data Box, or by viewing waypoint details from the Waypoint
List.

To display the waypoint details from the Waypoint List:

1. Select the waypoint from the Waypoint List as described in Selecting

a Waypoint on page 3-17.
The details for the selected waypoint are displayed. Temperature,
depth, date and time are included (if available) for waypoints placed
at the vessel’s position.
