eTrex help?


DontBlink

Recommended Posts

I just bought the Garmin etrex, I dont understand how to enter the coordinates. As far as I understand you can record places you have already been to by marking a waypoint. So, we havent been able to go out searching....what am I missing in the manual? Ive looked at every page on the unit itself, I dont see where to input manually. Somebody with this same unit help me please???? Thanks!!! :unsure:

To change the location (latitude/longitude):

From the MARK WAYPOINT page, press the [uP] or [DOWN] button to highlight the 'LAT/LON' field, then press [ENTER]. The EDIT LOCATION Page appears.

 

Then follow the directions on screen.
