Creating and Using Waypoints
The GARMIN GPSMAP 135 Sounder stores up to 250 alphanumeric waypoints
with a user-defined icon and comment available for each waypoint. Waypoints can
be created using three basic methods:
M
key– used primarily for marking your present position, the
M
key
also provides options that allow you to select a map or navaid position from
the map display.
• Graphically– allows you to define a new waypoint position from the map
or sounder display using the cursor.
• Text Entry– allows you to enter a new waypoint’s position coordinates
manually (from a chart, etc.) or by referencing it’s bearing and distance from
a stored waypoint or your present position.
Mark Key
The GARMIN GPSMAP 135 Sounder’s
M
key lets you quickly capture your
present position— or cursor or navaid position— in order to create a new way-
point. You must have a valid position fix to mark your present position.
To mark your present position:
1. Press the
M
key. The mark position page will appear, with a default three-digit name
for the new waypoint.
2. To accept the waypoint with the default name, symbol and comment (the depth at the
waypoint’s position), press
T
to confirm the ‘Done?’ prompt.
3. To enter a different name, symbol or comment, highlight the appropriate field and press
the
T
key.
4. After entering and confirming your changes, move the field highlight back to the ‘Done?’
prompt and press
T
.
A. The mark key is used primarily to mark your
present position, but it can also be used to mark
the cursor or a navaid position from the map
page.
B. The mark position page also allows you to add
the new waypoint to the end of any route. If
you’re heading out without a planned route, you
can create a series of waypoints along the way
with the mark key and save them to an open
storage route. When you’re ready to head back,
simply invert the route to get back (see page 66).
