Selecting Waypoints (Nearest To Other Categories)
This will allow you to change the “Nearest To” from Position to any
other category in the database. The first step is to follow the instructions
provided above for selecting user, preloaded or
uploaded waypoints using Nearest To.
In the example here, the category “Waterways” was
selected from the preloaded list of categories. Notice
that the highlight is on “Position”.
As you know,
you can move the highlight to one of the waypoints
in the list by using the up/down arrows.
But in this
example, we are going to change “Position” to
“Dallas, Tx”.
With the highlight still on “Position” press
[ENTER]
.
(If you already used the arrow keys and
one of the waypoints in the list are highlighted, use the
[ESC]
button to
return the highlight to “Position”.)
A drop-down menu is displayed with the options of Position, Cities,
Address, Cursor or Other.
(The option “Cursor” only appears if the
Map screen is in th Cursor Mode.)
For this example, highlight “Cities”
and press
[ENTER]
.
Use the keyboard to enter “DALL” and highlight “OK” and press
[ENTER]
.
Use the up/down arrows to highlight “Dallas, TX” and

procedure and be sure to select “Waterways” from the
