is the Main Menu page, which allows access to the GPS 152’s waypoint, route and planning functions,
various operational and navigation setup features, and celestial and tidal data.
The Main Menu is available from any page, and is accessed through the

1. Press the

The Main Menu page lists 14 menu ‘tabs’ that are divided into categories by function. You can
view a particular menu by simply highlighting the desired tab, which will then show any secondary
submenu tabs and options for that tab.
To get a feel for how the Main Menu page works, clear out the track log you created during
the simulated tour. This will ensure that you have a clean slate once you start navigating in your
home waters.
You may choose from 28 different types of data.
