GlobalNav 212TM is a trademark of Lowrance Electronics Lowrance® is a registered trademark of Lowrance Electronics WARNING!A CAREFUL NAVIGATOR NEVER RELIES ON ONLY ONE METHOD TO OBTAIN POSITION INFORMATION. Never use this product while operating a vehicle. CAUTION When showing navigation data to a position (waypoint), this unit will show the shortest, most direct path to the waypoint. [. . . ] Every time you save a waypoint, the date and time are logged along with the position data. In this case, waypoint number one was assigned when the position was saved. Saving The Cursor Position as a Waypoint When the cursor is showing on the plotter and you press the WPT key twice, the cursor's position is placed into the first available waypoint number. In the example screen shown below, the cursor is placed at the desired location. Pressing the WPT twice causes waypoint number two to be placed at the cursor's crosshairs. (Waypoint 2 was the next available waypoint number. ) A message appears on the display telling you the waypoint number it just used. Press the EXIT key to erase the cursor. 25 Saving Your Present Position as a Waypoint (Select Number Method) The method shown previously doesn't let you choose the waypoint number. You can pick the waypoint number, (see below on waypoint selection) then save your present or cursor position. Press the right or left arrow keys until the desired waypoint number appears that you wish to save your present (or cursor) location under. When it does, highlight the "Options" label and press the right arrow key. Highlight the "Save WPT As" label (shown at the top of the menu) and press the right arrow key. This saves your present position (or cursor position) under the waypoint number you selected on the first page. SELECTING A WAYPOINT In order to edit or navigate to a waypoint, you must first select it. There are three ways to do this: by waypoint number, waypoint list, or nearest. All waypoint selection methods are on the main waypoint menu shown at the top of this page. Waypoint Number To select a waypoint by its number, simply highlight the "WPT" label at the top of the waypoint menu, then press the left or right arrow keys until the desired waypoint number appears. Waypoint List The waypoint number selection method forces you to scroll through all waypoint numbers, whether there's a location saved in them or not. Simply highlight the desired waypoint and press the right arrow key to select it. The waypoint list screen is erased and the waypoint menu reappears. 26 Nearest Waypoint You can select the nearest waypoint to your present position by choosing "Nearest" from the waypoint menu. The highlighted waypoint at the top of the screen is nearest to your present position, the next one is farther, the one after that even farther, and so on. Each waypoint is shown by its number, name, distance and bearing from your present position to the waypoint. Use the up or down arrow keys to scroll through the list of waypoints. When the desired waypoint is highlighted, press the right arrow key to select it. EDITING A WAYPOINT You can customize a waypoint by giving it a name or change it's position or icon.
