Naming a waypoint or placing any sort of data that has not been predefined requires the use of
both the ARROW KEYPAD and the ENTER/MARK key.
To enter a name or number in a data field:
1. Once you have accessed a page with programmable data fields (e.g. ‘ Waypoint Edit’) you can use
the ARROW KEYPAD to move the cursor (Highlight) to fields on the page. Use the UP/DOWN
arrows to move up or down and the LEFT/RIGHT arrows to move sideways.
2. Pressing the
ENTER key with the field highlighted begins the process for entering data in the form
of alphanumeric characters.
3. Use the ARROW KEYPAD UP/DOWN arrows to cycle through numbers 0 to 9, plus/minus symbols,
blank space, and the alphabet. Pressing and releasing the keypad moves you character by character
through the list. Pressing and holding the keypad moves you rapidly through the list.
4. Use the ARROW KEYPAD LEFT/RIGHT arrows to move to the next character on the line or back
-
wards to edit characters. If there are more than two lines of data, keep pressing to the RIGHT to
drop down to the next line.
5. When data entry is completed press
ENTER to accept data, then move to the next programmable
field. Not all data fields are programmable, such as the date and time. When moving about a page
with these fields, the cursor skips over them.
Every field and button on this page
can be programmed or activated.
