Context-Sensitive Cursor Control

The cursor is context-sensitive. Some items on the screen have
information associated with them. Whan you place the cursor over such
objects, the information is displayed in a pop-up box. In addition, soft
keys aredisplayed for certain items. For example, when you place the
cursor over a waypoint, the waypoint data is displayed in a pop-up box
and the waypoint soft keys are displayed.

Dedicated Keys

The dedicated keys: DISPLAY, MARK, RANGE, ALARMS, ENTER,
CLEAR, MENU
and POWER have fixed functions.

Some keys can be used in two ways:

Press: Press the key momentarily and then release it. This method is
used for most key operations.

Press and hold: Press the key and hold it down for the length of time
stated (for example, 3 seconds), then release it.

When you press a dedicated key, one of the following happens:

1. The associated operation is actioned, eg. change chart scale (RANGE).
2. A pop-up menu is displayed, providing further options.
3. A set of soft keys is displayed, providing further functions.

As you press a key, a single audio beep confirms the key action. If the
key-press is invalid for the current screen or mode, three rapid beeps
sound. If required, you can turn these sounds off as part of your set up
procedure (see System Set Up Parameters on page 4-3).
