Quick Start Tour
The Quick Start Tour will teach you the basic op-
eration of your GPS 12CX. This tour assumes that none
of the factory settings (units of measure, selectable fields)
have been changed. If the settings have been changed
the pictures and descriptions you see in the manual may
not match what you see on the screen.
Turning on the GPS 12CX
1. Press the
POWER
key, hold until the unit turns on.
The welcome page and database info pages will ap-
pear while the unit conducts a self test. Once testing is
complete, the Satellite Page will appear. When suffi-
cient satellite signals have been acquired, the Satellite
Page will be replaced by the Position Page.
Adjusting the Contrast
It may be necessary to adjust the display contrast in
varying light conditions. The contrast adjustment can
be accessed from any of the five main pages by pressing
the
POWER
key briefly. After the contrast adjustment
page appears, pressing the
ROCKER
left or right will
either decrease or increase the display’s contrast.
Marking a Position
GPS is really about marking and going to places
called waypoints. Before we can use our GPS 12CX to
guide us somewhere, we have to mark a position as a
waypoint. (Your GPS 12CX can hold up to 1000 way-
points.)
To mark your present position:
1. Press the
MARK
key. The mark position page will
appear, with a default three-digit name for the new
waypoint in the upper-left portion of the page.
To rename the waypoint:
1. Highlight the name field, and press
ENTER
.
2. Enter the waypoint name ‘HOME’, and press
ENTER
. (See pg. 2 for data entry.) The waypoint
symbol field will become highlighted.
To change the waypoint symbol:
1. Highlight the waypoint symbol field, press
ENTER
.
2. Select the house symbol, and press
ENTER
.
3. Select the desired color and press
ENTER
.
4. Move the cursor to ‘DONE?’, press
ENTER
.
Press the
POWER
key briefly to
activate the contrast adjustment
window.
Pressing the
ROCKER
left or right will decrease or in-
crease the screen contrast.
