MARK
Marking Present Position
Some applications of the
MARK
feature include aerial photog-
raphy (mark the location in your car and navigate to it by air)
and saving locations while fl ying that you wish to return to by car
(such as a promising fi shing spot or a golf course).
In addition to its use for data entry, the

select any name you want, up to ten characters in length. To change the name, highlight the identifi er
fi eld, press

ARROW KEYPAD
to enter the desired waypoint name. Press
ENTER
once all characters for the waypoint name have been entered.
3. To select a different waypoint symbol, which will appear on the map: Highlight the symbol fi eld and
press
ENTER
. A list of available symbols will appear. Use the
ARROW KEYPAD
to select the desired
symbol and press
ENTER
