Map Page Functions
There are four main functions you can perform from
the map page—zooming, pointing, panning and map
options. Each of these functions has its own “field”,
which may be selected and activated for use.
Whenever the map page first appears, the zoom field
(at the top left) is always selected. The map page has 18
map scales which are selected through the zoom field.
To select a zoom scale:
1. Press the left or right arrow keys to highlight the zoom
field.
2. Press
E
to begin range selection.
3. Use the up or down arrow keys to scroll through and
find the desired scale. Press
E
to confirm your
selection.
The second function field on the map page is the pan
field. The pan function allows you to move the map with
the arrow keys to view areas outside the current map.
To activate the pan function:
1. From the zoom field, use the right arrow key to highlight
the pan field and press
E
.
2. Use the arrow keys to move the map in any direction.
As you begin to move the map, a crosshair will
appear. This crosshair will serve as a target marker for the
moving map. The distance and bearing to destination (at
the top of the page) will now be replaced by the distance
and bearing from your present position to the target
crosshair.
As you pan around the moving map display, you’ll
notice that the target crosshair will “snap to” on-screen
waypoints and highlight the waypoint name. Once a way-
point name is highlighted, you can review its waypoint
definition page by using the
E
key, or execute a
GOTO function by using the
G
key.
To stop the panning function and return to your pre-
sent position:
1. Press
Q
.
The GPS 92 offers 18 zoom
scales from 0.2 to 500 nm.
Use the panning mode to
view the area surrounding
your current position and
nearby waypoints.
