Organizing Waypoints into Categories
You can organize your waypoints into categories to help you manage
and use your waypoints. For example, you can create a Vacation
category that stores all of the waypoints you will use for your
upcoming vacation. When the vacation is over, you can delete all the
waypoints in that category by pushing a few buttons. You can create
up to 15 categories.
To
create a waypoint category:
1. From any of the waypoint pages or the Points tab, press
MENU to open the options menu.
2. Select Edit Categories, and press ENTER. The Waypoint
Categories window opens.
3. Highlight Add, and press ENTER.
Adding a new category
4. Use the ROCKER to enter a name for the category.
5. Highlight Save, and press ENTER.
When you create or edit a waypoint, you can select the category
from the Category list on the Waypoint Page.
To assign a category to a waypoint:
1. Open the Waypoint Edit Page. (You can also change the
category on the New Waypoint Page.)
2. Select the Category field, and press ENTER.
