Save, Create, or Delete a Waypoint
Save your Current Position as a Waypoint: On any view, press the MARK key to
save the current position of the boat as a waypoint.
Save the Cursor Position as a Waypoint: On the Chart or Combo View, use the
4-WAY Cursor Control key to move the cursor to the position you want to save as
a waypoint. Then press the MARK key to save the position as a waypoint.
Save a Position from the Sonar History: On any Sonar View, Side Imaging® View,
or Down Imaging® View, use the 4-WAY Cursor Control key to move the cursor to
a feature in the sonar history. Press the MARK key to create a waypoint at the
location where that sonar reading was taken. The new waypoint will also record
the depth at that location.
Create a New Waypoint: To create a waypoint that is NOT your current
position, open the Waypoint Management dialog box. Select Options > New >
New Waypoint. Use the 4-WAY Cursor Control key to set the available fields.
See Edit your Waypoints, Routes, Tracks, and Groups for details.
Delete a Waypoint: Open the Waypoint Management dialog box. Select a
Waypoint, and press the RIGHT Cursor key to open the Waypoint submenu.
Select Delete, and press the RIGHT Cursor key. To remove the Waypoint from
the group, choose Selected. To delete the waypoint from all groups, choose All
Instances.
NOTE: When you save a waypoint by any of these methods, a numerical
waypoint name is automatically assigned. You can edit the waypoint
information later to give it a different name and select an icon to represent
it (see Edit your Waypoints, Routes, Tracks, and Groups).
