Using the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C

This section explains how to enter and select information with the

GPSMAP 3006C/3010C.

Understanding the Features

The advanced keypad system on the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C is designed to allow

you to select options and enter data quickly and conveniently. As you progress

through this owner’s manual, you are directed to press a specific key or highlight

a field on the screen. When you are directed to press a key, you should press and

quickly release the key. If you need to hold down the key for a period of time

to activate a secondary function, the instructions tell you to do so. The location

of the highlight is controlled by the ROCKER. When a field is selected on the

screen, it is highlighted in yellow.
The following terms are used throughout this manual:

• highlight—move the highlighted area on the screen up, down, left, or right

with the ROCKER to select individual fields. Moving the highlight to a

given location allows you to make a selection, begin data entry, or scroll

through a list.

• Field—the location on a page where data or an option can be entered and

displayed. Highlight a field using the ROCKER to begin entering data or

selecting options.

Soft keys—located along the bottom of the screen, soft keys are used as

shortcuts to select the most commonly used options for the selected page,

window, or tab. To select a soft key, press the

key directly below it.

• On-Screen button—use the ROCKER to highlight an on-screen button,

and press ENtER to select the button.

the settings, but you can also revert to the factory (default) settings when

you press the Factory Dflts soft key on the System–General sub tab.
