Quick Start

8

Field—

 The location on a page where a group of characters or an option is entered and displayed. 

The cursor is placed on a fi eld (using the 

ROCKER KEYPAD

) to begin data entry or select options.

To enter data in a data fi eld:

1.  Use the 

ROCKER KEYPAD

 to highlight the desired data fi eld. Press 

ENTER

 to begin data entry.

2.  Use the 

ROCKER KEYPAD

 to enter the desired data. Move UP/DOWN to select the desired character 

and RIGHT to move to the next character fi eld. LEFT allows you to back up to the previous character 
fi eld or, when at the left-most character fi eld, to clear the entire data fi eld.

On-Screen Button— 

Similar to ‘Field’. Place the cursor on a button and press 

ENTER

 to select the 

action corresponding to the button. An example of an on-screen button is the ‘Show Map’ button at the 
bottom of the Waypoint Edit page (see example at left).

Scroll Bar—

 When viewing a list of items too long to display on a single page, a scroll bar will 

appear along the right side of the list (see example at left). The position of the scroll bar indicates which 
portion of the list is currently being displayed. The height of the scroll bar indicates the number of items 
in the list. To scroll through a list of items, press UP/DOWN on the 

ROCKER KEYPAD

Creating and Naming Waypoints

There will be many times that you may need to select a menu item and/or enter data.  An example is 

naming a waypoint.  The 

ARROW KEYPAD

 is used to navigate through menu items and to enter data.

We will create a new waypoint, enter a waypoint name, and assign a symbol to the waypoint using 

the 

ARROW KEYPAD

.  

The term “waypoint” may be new to you.  A waypoint is a location saved in the unit’s memory so it 

can be used for navigation.  Waypoints can be used for direct navigation, or to build a Route.

Creating or “marking” a waypoint with the GPSMAP 176 is easy.  The unit has to be turned on and 

receiving at least three satellites or be in Simulator Mode to mark a waypoint.
