Panning

To pan around the map simply use the

ROCKER

to

control the direction that the target crosshair will travel.
To quit the pan function and resume tracking on the
map, press the

QUIT

key

As you move around the map the distance and bear-

ing from the current GPS location to the crosshair will
be displayed in the top corners of the map. As you pan
near a waypoint you will notice that the crosshair will
“snap” to on-screen waypoints. Once a waypoint is
highlighted, you can either review its waypoint defini-
tion page, the waypoints display options, or execute a
GOTO function right from the Map Page.

To review waypoint definition page for highlighted waypoint:

1. Press

ENTER

while waypoint is highlighted.

From the waypoint definition page, you can also

define how each individual waypoint is displayed on
the map. The GPS 12CX displays waypoints as a name
with a corresponding symbol (e.g., “camp” and the
camp site symbol), or a 16-character comment and cor-
responding symbol, (e.g., “great boat ramp” and the
boat symbol). The waypoint name has a six character
limit while the “comment” field has a 16-character limit,
and there are 16 waypoint symbols available.

To select a waypoint display option:

1. Highlight the “symbol” field (to the right of the name

field), and press

ENTER.

2. Move the cursor to the ‘DISPLAY’ field and press

ENTER

.

3. Using the

ROCKER

, select one of the display options:

‘NAME WITH SYMBOL’, ‘SYMBOL ONLY’, or ‘COM-
MENT WITH SYMBOL’.

4. Press

ENTER

to confirm the selection.

5. With ‘DONE’ highlighted press

ENTER

to return

to the waypoint definition page.

6. With ‘DONE’ highlighted press

ENTER

to return

to the Map Page.

The last function that you can perform with a

waypoint highlighted, is a GOTO (see page 29 for more
on the GOTO function) the highlighted waypoint.

To go to a waypoint highlighted on the Map Page:

1. Press the

GOTO

key.

2. Press

ENTER

to confirm the GOTO.
