Easy Mode Operation

This section addresses Easy Mode operation for iFINDER's main GPS
functions. The principles are the same in both operating modes, so this
discussion also serves as a good introduction to Advanced Mode work.

The iFINDER Keypad

You'll control the iFINDER Go with its keyboard, which includes:

PWR/LIGHT (Power & Light) – The PWR key turns the unit on and off
and activates the backlight. Turn off the unit by pressing and holding
the

PWR

key for 3 seconds.

PAGES – Pressing this key switches the unit between the three
different page screens in Easy Mode. (Satellite, Navigation and Map.)
Each page represents one of the unit's major operation modes.

MENU – Press this key to show the menus, which allow you to select or
adjust a feature from a list.

ARROW KEYS – These keys are used to navigate through the menus,
make menu selections, move the map cursor and enter data.

ENT/SAVE (Enter & Save) – This key allows you to save data, accept
values or execute menu commands.

EXIT – The Exit key lets you return to the previous screen and clear
data or close menus.

FIND – The Find key launches the iFINDER search menus.

ZOUT and ZIN – (Zoom Out and Zoom In) – These keys let you zoom
the screen in or out to see either a larger geographic area on the map,
or greater detail in a smaller map area. You can press

ZOUT

and

ZIN

at

the same time to create a Man Overboard waypoint at your current
location and begin navigating back to it.

Main Menu

Easy Mode has a single Main Menu, which contains the commands you'll
use to operate your iFINDER. Some important Main Menu commands
and their functions are:
