Edit Waypoints
As mentioned earlier the eTrex Summit will assign a
numeric name at the time a waypoint is created. The
assigned name can be easily changed to something more
meaningful to help in identifying the waypoint.
To change the waypoint name:
1 On the MARK WAYPOINT page, press the
UP
or
DOWN
Button to highlight the Waypoint Name
‘001’. Press
ENTER.
The EDIT WAYPOINT NAME
Page appears.
2. Press
ENTER
. Using the
UP
or
DOWN
Button, scroll
through the letter selections. Select ‘H’ and press
ENTER
. Repeat this process and finish the word
‘HOME’.
3. Using the
UP
or
DOWN
Button, highlight the ‘OK’
field and press
ENTER
. The MARK WAYPOINT page
appears.
4. Using the
UP
or
DOWN
Button, highlight the ‘OK’
field and press
ENTER
. Your location, named HOME,
is now marked and stored in memory.
Now that you’ve marked your location, it’s time to go
for a brisk walk. Press the
PAGE
Button and switch to the
MAP Page
Walk in a straight line for 2-3 minutes at a fast
pace and watch the Map Page.
Your location is shown by the figure in the middle of
the screen. As you move, watch the animated figure walk,
and a line—called a “track”—appear along the path you
have just covered.
Now take a sharp right or left turn and walk at a
brisk pace for another 2-3 minutes.
