3. Enter the name of the new route using the
KEYPAD
and
CURSOR PAD
. (If you have questions about using these
controls, see ”Using the Controls” starting on page 25.)
4. Press the
ENTER
key. The
NEW ROUTE
chart screen is dis-
played where you start selecting waypoints for the new
route.
5. To add waypoints to the route, move the cursor to the first
waypoint’s location, which can be a nav aid, an existing
waypoint, or any unmarked point on the chart. If the cur-
sor has selected an existing waypoint, the menu key will
read
ADD WAYPT
; if the cursor is on anything else, the
menu key will read
ADD NEW WP
. Press the particular
key to add a new waypoint.
Waypoints that are newly created as you travel are named
(0001), (0002), etc., as you enter them. The parentheses
indicate that the waypoint is part of a saved route, and the
four-digit number uniquely identifies each waypoint.
Each new waypoint is automatically given a description
with the time and date you stored the waypoint.
6. Continue creating the route by moving the cursor to each
desired waypoint location and pressing either the
ADD
WAYPT
or the
ADD NEW WP
menu key for each new
waypoint in the route. A line will be drawn on the
NEW
ROUTE
screen connecting the waypoints, with small
arrows indicating the direction of the route.
