Searching for a waypoint
If you’ve stored hundreds of waypoints, scrolling through the
entire list to find the one you want may be tedious. At the
WAYPOINTS
screen, you can search for waypoints by the same
categories as the sorting process; that is, you can search by
symbol, name, distance, and bearing:
• To search for waypoints by symbol, press the
CURSOR
PAD
left to highlight the
SYMBOL
column (shown at the
far left without a heading), then press the
LEFT ARROW
and
RIGHT ARROW
keys to cycle through all the sym-
bols. Each
LEFT ARROW
or
RIGHT ARROW
keypress will
highlight a different symbol in the
SEARCH
field.
• To search for waypoints by name, press the
CURSOR PAD
left or right to highlight the
NAME
column, then use the
KEYPAD
to enter the first few characters, as necessary, of
the waypoint’s name.
• To search for waypoints by distance or bearing, press the
CURSOR PAD
left or right to highlight either of these col-
umns, then use the
KEYPAD
to enter the distance or bear-
ing.
The waypoint that you find during your search will appear in
the list at about the third line from the top, which lets you eas-

point.

CHART
screen—by moving the cursor
