2.5 ENTERING DATA
You may enter data such as waypoint identifiers and user waypoint
coordinates on certain pages. To enter data you must first move the
cursor to the desired field by pressing the right or left arrow key. A data
entry operation is completed by pressing the ENT key. If an error is made
during the data entry process, press the CLR key to remove the erroneous
character.
To enter a number...
· Press the key that is labeled with the desired number. The numbers
will fill in from the right side of the field and move to the left as each
new number is entered. For example, if you wish to enter “51” in a
three space field, you must press the 5 and 1 keys in that order. You
do not have to enter a leading zero. (Note: When entering numbers
in an alphanumeric field press the key that is labeled with the
desired number, then press the right or left arrow key twice.)
· Press CLR if you enter an incorrect number.
· Press ENT when you have filled all significant digits of the field with
numbers.
To enter a letter...
· Press the key that is labeled with the desired letter.
· Press the right or left arrow key until the desired letter is displayed.
· Press CLR if you enter an incorrect letter.
· Press ENT when all the characters are entered.
The GPS 95 features a keypad feedback tone which will sound each time
you press a key. If you enter data which is not appropriate for the field, the
feedback tone will quickly sound three times indicating an error. The
keypad feedback tone can be turned off if you wish. (See Section 8.10.)
