The GPS III’s Main Menu provides access to the waypoint, route, track log, timer

and setup features of the receiver. The Main Menu can be accessed at any time using
the MENU key.

To display the Main Menu, press the MENU key twice.

The 6 menu options are divided into categories by function: waypoints/nearest

waypoints, routes/track logs, trip computer, and system setups.

To select an option from the Main Menu, highlight the desired item and

press ENTER.

The following menu options are available:
Waypoints— allows you to create, edit or delete waypoints. See pages 42-47.
Nearest— displays up to nine nearest waypoints within 200 miles of your present
position. See page 48.
Routes— allows you to create, edit, activate or delete routes. See pages 54-58.
Track Log— lets you specify whether or not to record a track log (an electronic
‘breadcrumb trail’ recording of your path), define how it is recorded or save track
log data for future use. The Track Logs Page also provides an indicator of the mem-
ory used for the active track log and options to clear the track memory or start a
TracBack route. See pages 52-53 for TracBack information.

The Track Logs Page is divided in two main sections: one for the active log (the log
currently being recorded) and available memory, and the second section showing
any saved track logs and the total number saved. The active log stores up to 1900
track log positions, based upon the criteria specified in the Track Log Options. Up
to 10 additional track logs may be saved in memory, with up to 250 track log posi-
tions in each saved log.

Press MENU twice to display
the Main Menu.

Select the desired menu option
by highlighting it with the
rocker keypad and pressing
ENTER.
