+aubigdog Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 I have an Oregon 400t and the only way that I can figure to go to coordinates is to first create a waypoint from my current location and to then edit the waypoint coordinates and then choose goto that waypoint that I just created. I saw in the Oregon wiki that there was a go to coordinates menu item under the Wherigo menu, but mine doesn't have that option. Do I need to turn it on somewhere?? Thanks in advance for the help!

+Red90 Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 No that is how most Garmin GPS units work. Mark and then edit. Quick and simple. Just hold down the center RnR button to mark no matter what screen you are in. Quote Link to comment
+Tequila Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 No that is how most Garmin GPS units work. Mark and then edit. Quick and simple. Just hold down the center RnR button to mark no matter what screen you are in. There is no RnR button on the Oregon. It is a touchscreen. Besides creating a waypoint, you can also touch anywhere on the mapscreen. That will create a "temporary" waypt at the top of the screen. Touch that button and then touch GO. Quote Link to comment

Not the Wherigo menu ... the Where To? menu. That's where you'll see "Coordinates" as one of the options. JetSkier Quote Link to comment

On my 400t, the options under Where To? are :Recent Finds, Waypoints, Tracks , Routes, All POI, Cities, Tides, Geographic Points. No coordinates....oh well. Quote Link to comment
+g-o-cashers Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 You have old software. Update to the newest version using webupdater and you'll see WhereTo?>Coordinates. The feature was added in 2.6 Quote Link to comment
