Waypoints Pointer Page Basics Track Log 7 Marking a Waypoint Waypoints are locations that you can mark (save in memory) as destinations to navigate to later. To mark a waypoint: 1. Press and hold the ENTER button. The 'MARK WAYPOINT' page appears. 2. The eTrex automatically assigns a numeric name to the new waypoint. With 'OK?' highlighted, press ENTER. The waypoint is now stored in the eTrex's memory. 9 Pointer Page Basics Once you select a GOTO, the eTrex will guide you to the destination using the Pointer Page. The pointer (arrow) tells you the direction to the destination waypoint. Walk in the direction the arrow is pointing until it points at the Moving Driection Line at the top of the compass ring. If the arrow points to the right, you need to go right. If the arrow points to the left, go left. When the arrow is pointing straight up, you are on the correct track! Mark Waypoint Page 8 Going To A Waypoint The eTrex guides you to a waypoint using a GOTO (GOTO means GOing TO a destination in a direct line). To start a GOTO: 1.

The Review Waypoint page for that waypoint appears. 3. Press the UP or DOWN button to highlight 'GOTO,' then press ENTER. Go right until the arrow points straight up. You're on target! 10 Stopping a GOTO To stop a GOTO: 1. Press the PAGE button and switch to the POINTER Page. Press ENTER. 2. Highlight 'STOP NAVIGATION' on the OPTIONS Page and press ENTER.

You can clean up the screen by clearing the track log (the lines left on the Map Page). You might also want to save your current track log before clearing it. To save the current Track Log: 1. From the MENU Page, highlight 'TRACKS' and press ENTER. The TRACK LOG Page appears. 2. Press the UP or DOWN button to highlight 'SAVE,' then press ENTER. The SAVE BACK THROUGH window appears giving you a time frame for saving a track or 'ENTIRE LOG.' 3. Press the UP or DOWN button to select the desired option. Press ENTER. The saved track appears on a sub-page. 4. Press the UP or DOWN button to select 'OK.' Press ENTER. The track is now saved and appears in the 'SAVED TRACKS' list on the TRACK LOG Page. To clear the Track Log: 1. Press the PAGE button to switch to the MENU Page. 2. Press the UP or DOWN button to highlight 'TRACKS.' 3. Press ENTER. You are now on the TRACKS Page.
