Waypoints / Database
Accessing Waypoints in the Database —
All stored waypoints, whether
user-input or preloaded, can be found in the Waypoint Database. You
will need to access waypoints in the database whenever you are editing
waypoints, activating a GOTO route or creating a multileg route.

selected as the “Find By” option for the database
or if User was selected as the category, you will
be presented with a list of waypoints that you
can choose from. The information at the bottom

position.
Selecting Waypoints from the Alphabetical
List.
If
Alphabetical
is selected as the “Find
By” option for the database a slightly different
screen from the Nearest list is displayed. A
keyboard is graphically displayed allowing you
to enter the name of the waypoint or map
object you are looking for. You need not enter
the entire name, just enough letters to narrow
the search down. (A minimum of four charac-
ters is recommended.) Selecting “OK” and
pressing enter brings up a listing of the waypoints, starting with the one
you entered at the top.
Note:
When selecting the User category, the SporTrak does not use the
keyboard display.
