define how each individual waypoint is displayed on

the map. The GPS 12XL displays waypoints as a name

pump symbol), a symbol only (e.g., a fish symbol), or a

16-character comment and corresponding symbol (e.g.,

“great view” and the camp site symbol). The waypoint

name has a six character limit while the “comment”

field has a 16-character limit, and there are 16 different

waypoint symbols available.
