2. A message appears, telling you to move the cursor near the desired

location and press

ENT. When the message automatically clears, follow

the message instructions.

3. In a moment, your present position marker arrow appears on the

map in the location you selected with the cursor. The unit will consider

that spot as its last known position until changed by either a live satel-

lite lock-on or a new simulator location.

Map Auto Zoom

This receiver has an auto zoom feature that eliminates much of the

button pushing that other brands of GPS receivers force you to make. It

works in conjunction with the navigation features. First, start naviga-

tion to a waypoint. See the waypoint section for more information on

navigating to a waypoint.

Then, with the auto zoom mode on, the unit zooms out until the entire

course shows, from the present position to the destination waypoint. As

you travel toward the destination, the unit automatically begins zoom-

ing in — one zoom range at a time — always keeping the destination on

the screen.

To turn this feature on, from the

MAP PAGE, press MENU|↓ to AUTO

ZOOM|ENT|EXIT. Repeat these steps to turn it off.

Map Data

This menu lets you turn the map off, if desired (which turns the map

screen into a GPS plotter); turn off or on the pop-up map info boxes;

draw the map boundaries or boxes around the areas of high detail; or

show water on the map as white to contrast land.

You can also turn on or off Map Overlays, which display latitude and

longitude grid lines or range rings on the map. This menu lets you se-

lect NauticPath maps; for instructions, see the NauticPath entry in this

section.
