The Waypoints Page
GPX le open on your device. The le name and the number
of waypoints in the le appear at the top of the page.
When you highlight a waypoint in the list, the Bearing and
Distance info elds display measurements as follows:
From the GPS position when the device has a GPS x.
From the cursor location if you are manually panning
the map.
From the map center if the GPS receiver is turned off.
Sorting the List
There are two ways to sort your list of waypoints—
by distance from your GPS location or alphabetically by
name. From the Waypoints Page, press MENU; the
device is set to the option that is not showing. To switch
to the highlighted option, press ENTER. If the le has a
large number of waypoints, press ENTER to interrupt
the sorting process and see a partial list.
Symbols
The waypoint symbols available on the PN-Series GPS
match the PN-Series symbol set in your DeLorme mapping
application. The symbol set includes geocaching symbols
(these are at the end of the symbol list). To ensure a
waypoint displays on the Waypoints Page, use a waypoint
symbol. If you use a geocaching symbol, the waypoint
will display only on the Geocaches Page. To see the
geocaching symbols, go to page 39. For a complete list
of symbols, see the DeLorme Wiki (wiki.delorme.com).
File Menu
Use the File menu to manage waypoint GPX les stored
on the SD card in the device, as well as waypoints you
create on the device. For more information about les,
see File Management on page 66.
To open the File menu, from the Waypoints Page, go
to MENU > File. The following options are available:
New–Create a new GPX le and name it. When you
turn off the device, the le will automatically be saved.
Open–View a list of les on the SD card. Select the
le you want to open and press ENTER to view the
waypoints on the device.
Save As–Save the open le as a new le and name
it. If you have made any changes to the open le, the
changes are saved in the new le—the original le
does not retain the changes.
Close–Close the open GPX le.
Marking a Waypoint
Use the Mark button on the PN-Series GPS to mark a
waypoint at your current GPS location or at the map cursor
if you are viewing another location on the map. When
the waypoint is marked at the map cursor location, the
