You may capture and save your position as a waypoint, without adding it to
a route, by leaving the route storage number field blank.
To capture present position ...
· Press AUTOSTO. The pre-assigned waypoint identifier and captured
position are displayed. (NOTE: The Autostore
TM
location is captured
as soon as you press AUTOSTO. This allows you all the time you need
to change the waypoint name and/or confirm the Autostore
TM
operation.)
· If you wish to assign a different identifier to the waypoint: move the
cursor to the waypoint name field, enter the name of your choice and
press ENT. If you enter a waypoint name already used, you will be
informed with the message, “WPT Exists _____” (where the blank will
be filled in with the waypoint identifier). Enter a different identifier if this
occurs.
· Press ENT on a blank route storage number field to save the waypoint.
(If the route storage number field is not blank, the waypoint will be
added to the route shown.)
7.2 BUILDING ROUTES WITH AUTOSTORE
TM
The GPS 95’s Autostore
TM
feature may also be used to build a route as you
are flying. During your flight; as you reach each airport, NAVAID, landmark,
or turn to a new heading; you may capture your position and add it to a route.
Once you reach your destination you can then invert the route and follow the
same course back to where you started. Or, you may want the route for future
reference if you wish to make the same flight again.
