to mark is inaccessible (i.e. like a power pole behind a fence or

an island in a lake), when the GPS signal at a desired point is

unavailable (it may be blocked), or when gathering points from a

vehicle without having to get out of the vehicle.

To use the Mark Point Oset function, complete the following steps:

1. Fill in the Distance from where your current location is to the

point you are wanting to save.

2. Fill in the Direction in degrees that the new point is located.

3. Fill in the Slope from where you are located to the new point.

Use a clinometer to measure the slope.

4. Check the Oset On check box, aer these elds are lled in,

if you want the oset calculations activated before closing the

waypoint.

Now, whenever you select the saved oset point, if the Oset On

check box is checked, an indicator appears in the Waypoint screen

while viewing the point information.

If you want to view the unaltered point information, tap on the

Edit buon in the Waypoint screen.

Oset values are activated automatically when saving/closing the

waypoint by tapping on the OK buon. The Cancel buon does

not save any of seings or impose the new osets.

Average

The Average buon is used to average GPS xes that pass the

mask seings. When you press the Average buon, the bar graph

above starts to ll, showing a ratio of points that have been

included in the average so far.

The status/quality of GPS averaging is displayed in the box to the

le. If a reading is masked, the reason for being excluded from

the average is displayed in the box to the le.

The running and nal averaged information is located to the le

of the Average buon. While a waypoint is being averaged, the

average buon displays Averaging.

If the Store Wpt buon is pressed during the averaging process,

the nal average is not stored until all the points specied to

compute the average have been included. You will notice that the

Store Wpt buon shows waiting while it is averaging. Similarly,

nal data cannot be exported until averaging is complete.
