TOTALY LOST! Please help


Recommended Posts

I just acquired one of these.

Ive been messing with it for an hour and STILL cannot figure out how to ENTER my OWN coords into it so i can go find caches. Im ready to tear my hair out. Could someone peruse the above link and tell me what part explains this process? Ive found the part on how to access the waypoints once it is entered and how to set my current position as a waypoint.....but still cannot enter my own.

 

Thank you community!

You should be able to press and hold the 'goto' button. That should bring up a screen that will aloow you to enter in GPS coordinates and allow you to save it with a name and icon so you can find it on your map.

whoops. Sorry. I had the threads listed in outline mode. I didn't see that you already had your answer.

I just bought one of these and have a question about this - I can do above, and I can enter coordinates...but can I download coordiantes into it? I'm wondering if i use the software that came with it - save the waypoints and then download the region to the handheld....is that what i'm suppose to be doing?

 

I really appreciate any help here
