Using the GPSMAP 276C
This section explains how to enter and select information with the
GPSMAP 276C.
Understanding Terms
The GPSMAP 276C’s advanced keypad system is designed to allow
quick, convenient selection of navigation options and data entry.
As you progress through this owner’s manual, you are directed to
press a specific key or highlight a field on the screen. When you
are directed to press a key, you should press and quickly release the
key. If the key needs to be held down for a period of time to start
a secondary function, the instructions will tell you to do so. When
a field is selected on the screen, it is highlighted in yellow. The
position of the highlight is controlled by the ROCKER.
The following terms are used throughout this manual:
Highlight—move the highlighted area on the screen up, down, left,
or right with the ROCKER to select individual fields. Moving the
highlight to a given location allows you to make a selection, begin
data entry, or scroll through a list.
Field—the location on a page where data or an option can be shown
and entered. Select (highlight) a field using the ROCKER to begin
entering data or selecting options.
On-screen button
—use the ROCKER to highlight a button, and
press ENTER to select the button.
Scroll bar
—when viewing a list of items too long to appear on the
screen, a scroll bar appears along the right side of the list. To scroll
through a list, press up or down on the ROCKER.
Default—the factory setting saved in the unit’s memory. You can
change the settings, but you can also revert to the factory (default)
settings when you select Restore Defaults.
