This completes a basic explanation of the page
features of the eTrex.
Discovering the Fun of GPS Navigation
Discovering how to use your eTrex is as easy as taking
a quick walk around an open outdoor area. In this brief
exercise, you’ll mark your current location (your home
for example), travel a short distance away, and then have
the eTrex guide you back to where you started (to get the
most out of this exercise, make sure to walk for at least
the time noted for each step).
Creating a Waypoint
The first step in the exercise is to mark your location
as a waypoint so you can return to it later.

1. Press the
PAGE
Button and switch to the ‘MENU’
Page.
2.
Press the
UP
or

with ‘OK?’ highlighted.
Before we actually mark the waypoint, let’s change the
symbol to a house and the name ‘001’ to something a little
more meaningful such as HOME.
To change the waypoint symbol:
1.
On the ‘MARK WAYPOINT’ Page, press the
UP
or
DOWN
Button to highlight the small flag symbol
and press
ENTER
.
Using the
UP
or
DOWN
Button,
scroll through the symbols and highlight the house
symbol.

ENTER
.
NOTE:

NAVIGATE” before you mark a waypoint.
You’ll find the MARK
option on the ‘MENU’
Page.

tion Coordinates are
displayed at the bottom
of the ‘MARK
WAYPOINT’ Page and
