. When the message automatically clears, follow
the message instructions.
3. In a moment, your present position marker arrow appears on the
map in the location you selected with the cursor. The unit will consider
that spot as its last known position until changed by either a live satel-
lite lock-on or a new simulator location.
Map Auto Zoom
This receiver has an auto zoom feature that eliminates much of the
button pushing that other brands of GPS receivers force you to make. It
works in conjunction with the navigation features. First, start naviga-
tion to a waypoint. See the waypoint section for more information on
navigating to a waypoint.
Then, with the auto zoom mode on, the unit zooms out until the entire
course shows, from the present position to the destination waypoint. As
you travel toward the destination, the unit automatically begins zoom-
ing in — one zoom range at a time — always keeping the destination on
the screen.
To turn this feature on, from the

Map Data
This menu lets you turn the map off, if desired (which turns the map
screen into a GPS plotter); turn off or on the pop-up map info boxes;
draw the map boundaries or boxes around the areas of high detail; or
show water on the map as white to contrast land.
You can also turn on or off Map Overlays, which display latitude and
longitude grid lines or range rings on the map. This menu lets you se-
lect NauticPath maps; for instructions, see the NauticPath entry in this
section.
