WAYPOINTS
Waypoint Submenus & Nearest Waypoints
The GPSMAP 175’s main menu page features four waypoint submenus that
let you manage a large number of waypoints quickly and efficiently. The
submenus also provide a continuously updated nearest waypoints list and a
proximity waypoint alarm function that can be used to define an alarm circle
around submerged hazards, shallow waters, etc.
To access the main menu page/waypoint submenus:
1. Press O twice.
The first waypoint submenu is the nearest waypoints list, which shows
the nine nearest waypoints that are within 100 miles of your present position.
The nearest waypoints are continuously updated to your present position, and
provide quick access to the closest points of safety in emergency situations.
To scroll through and review the nearest waypoint list:
1. Highlight the ‘Nearest Waypoints’ option and press T.
2. Use the R keypad to scroll through the list in either direction.
3. Press T to review the highlighted waypoint.
4. To return to the waypoint list, press T to confirm the ‘Done?’ prompt.
5. The field highlight will automatically scroll to the next waypoint. If you
want to review each waypoint, you can scroll through any waypoint list by
pressing the T key repeatedly.
To select a nearest waypoint as a GOTO destination:
1. Use the R key to select the desired GOTO waypoint.
2. Press G, followed by T.
