Creating Waypoints
Waypoints are locations or landmarks you record and store in your
GPSMAP 396. Save your current location as a waypoint by pressing
and holding ENTER/MARK . You can also find waypoints using the
map or Find Menu and them store them in the unit.
The GPSMAP 396 stores up to 3,000 alphanumeric waypoints
with a user-defined icon, category, comment, altitude, depth, and
temperature available for each waypoint. Waypoints can be created
using three basic methods:
• ENTER/MARK —allows you to quickly mark your present
location.
• Graphically —allows you to define a new waypoint location
from the map show using the
ROCKER
.
• Text Entry —allows you to enter a new waypoint’s location
coordinates manually.
Marking Your Present Location
The ENTER/MARK key lets you quickly capture your present
location to create a new waypoint. You must have a valid location
(2D or 3D) fix to mark your present location. You can determine the
satellite fix by looking at the
GPS
tab on the Main Menu.
To mark your present location:
1. Press and hold
ENTER/MARK
until the New Waypoint Page
appears, then release it. A default four-digit name and symbol
are assigned for the new waypoint.

highlight the appropriate field, and press ENTER . After
entering and confirming your changes, highlight OK , and
press ENTER .
