Garmin GPS 92 - Manual (Page 31)

The VOR page lists the identifier, facility name and
city/state at the top of the page, with the transmitting fre-
quency of the facility listed below. If DME or TACAN
equipment is co-located at the site, it will be indicated
next to the transmitting frequency of the VOR. The lati-
tude and longitude are also displayed, with the region
and country indicated near the bottom of the page.
User Waypoint Information
The last waypoint category available from the GPS
92’s
M
key is user waypoints. The user waypoint page
allows entry of a desired waypoint by name/identifier and
displays the waypoint’s position, user comments and a
reference waypoint field to calculate the distance and
bearing to any other waypoint in the database. The user
waypoint page can also be used to create up to 500 way-
points by manually entering a position or defining a
range and bearing from an existing waypoint.
To view waypoint information for a user waypoint:
1. Select the ‘USR’ category from the waypoint category
field.
2. Enter the identifier/name of the desired user waypoint.
3. Press
E
.
The user waypoint page allows you to create new
waypoints using one of three available methods:
• Enter the exact coordinates for the new waypoint’s
position.
• Enter a distance and bearing from another way-
point already in memory.
• Enter a distance and bearing from your present
position.
The first step in creating a new waypoint (regardless
of what method you’re using) is to assign a name/identi-
fier for the new waypoint.
To create a new waypoint from the user waypoint
page:
1. Select the ‘USR’ category from any waypoint category
field and press
E
. The highlight will advance to the
name field.
