Troubleshooting
My device is not creating waypoints in the
correct location
You can manually enter a waypoint location to transfer and
share data from one device to the next. If you have
manually entered a waypoint using coordinates, and the
location of the point does not appear where the point
should be, the map datum and position format of the
device may not match the map datum and position format
originally used to mark the waypoint.
Position format is the way in which the
A02759
receiver's
position appears on the screen. Commonly displayed as
latitude/longitude in degrees and minutes, with options for
degrees, minutes and second, degrees only, or one of
several grid formats.
