3. POINTS

3.1 What is a Point?

In navigation terminology, a point is any location you mark on the plotter display. A

point can be a fishing spot, reference point and other important locations. You can use

a point you have entered to set a destination and create a route.

This unit has 30,000 points into which you can enter position information. There are

four methods that you can use to mark a point:

• At your current position

• At cursor position

• Enter position from the [Points List]

• Enter position manually on the screen

When you enter a point, the point is put on the screen with the point symbol selected

as the default point symbol, with the youngest empty point number. The position of the

point, symbol and navigation information (range, bearing, etc.) are saved to the [Points

List]. You can show or hide the points, and the default setting shows all points.

You can edit a point on the screen or on the [Points List].

3.2 How to Enter a Point

3.2.1 How to enter a point at the current position

A point may be entered at current position even when the menu is open. Press the
