Using distance and bearing mode
The 957 lets you quickly check the distance and bearing
between any two points on the CHART screen. You can also
use this function to make new waypoints that you define by
their distance and bearing from another point.
1. Press the WAYPTS/ROUTES key to display the WAY-
POINTS AND ROUTES screen.
2. Press the DISTANCE/BEARING menu key. The 957 dis-
plays your present position at the center of the CHART
screen with the cursor directly over it.
3. Press the CURSOR PAD to move the cursor to the first
location, and press the SET NEW “X” menu key. A new
“X,” or starting point, is displayed at that location. Dis-
tance and bearing information from the “X” point to the
cursor’s position is displayed in the INFO BAR. You can
move the cursor to various points on the CHART screen
and see the distance and bearing from the X point as it
moves.
