resorted while you’re displaying the list; you must leave and
return to viewing the
WAYPOINTS
screen to update the
sorting order.
Displaying local waypoints
To show the waypoints closest to your current position (also
called local waypoints), highlight the
DISTANCE
column, then
enter zeroes into the
SEARCH
field. The list then shows those
waypoints that are closest to your present position at the top
of the list.
Sorting by bearing
To show a list of waypoints sorted by bearing, press the
CURSOR PAD
right to highlight the
BRG
column, which is
automatically updated as you continue to navigate. When
sorted by bearing, if you want to see all the waypoints to the
east, for example, look at the part of the list containing
bearings near 090
°.
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
symbols. 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.
