Direct entry of start/finish/split coordinates
There is another method of entering the points for a point-to-point track -- direct entry of GPS
coordinates. To do this, you must obtain the latitude and longitude of the points. For example,
the website http://itouchmap.com/latlong.html is one such source.
There are two common formats for latitude/longitude -- degree/minute/fractional minute, and
degree/fractional degree. You can, through the menu selection "Display formats and units",
select which one you will use. (For example, the above website reports coordinates in the
degree/fractional degree format.)
For latitude, positive numbers are NORTH and negative numbers are SOUTH. For longitude,
positive numbers are EAST and negative numbers are WEST. When entering coordinates
manually, the GPS requires N/S and E/W.
