Saving a Waypoint

Waypoints are used to create routes and GOTOs. Before you can set a route

or GOTO, you must have a saved waypoint in your receiver. You have two

options when naming waypoints. You can create waypoints with either a

receiver-created name or with a name you create yourself.

Saving Your Position Fix with a Receiver-Generated Name

From anywhere in the receiver, you can save (MARK) your position with a

receiver created name. This is the fastest way to save your position.

To save a waypoint with a receiver-created name, press MARK, MARK.

The waypoint will be saved with a receiver-generated name beginning

with WPT001, WPT002 and so on.
