Quick Start

The GOTO/MOB key is used to begin or stop navigation to a waypoint. If the

GOTO/MOB key is pressed and held down, the GPS stores the current location (a

man overboard point) and gives you the opportunity to begin immediate navigation to

that point.

The PAGE key will cycle you through the ﬁve main display pages in sequence.

The POWER key is used to turn the unit on and off. To turn the unit off press

the POWER key and hold it. The POWER key is also used to display the adjustment

window for the backlight and contrast. To activate the backlight/contrast adjustment

window, press and release the POWER key.

The MENU key is used to display page option menus. If pressed twice, the Main

Menu will be displayed.

The QUIT key will cycle you through the ﬁve main display pages in reverse sequence.

The QUIT key will end an operation in progress and display the previous page.

The ENTER/MARK key is used to activate a data ﬁeld or conﬁrm a selection. If the

ENTER/MARK key is pressed and held, the GPS 72 will store the current location and

display the Mark Waypoint page.

The ROCKER key, located in the center of the keypad, is used to control the Up/Down

and Left/Right movement of the cursor on the display pages and during data entry.

Interface Keys

The IN and OUT keys are used on the Map Page and the Plot Page. When pressed,

the IN key decreases the map scale or decreased the horizontal plot scale, allowing

you to view a smaller area with greater detail. When pressed, the OUT key increases

the map or horizontal plot scale allowing you to view a larger area with less detail.

Quick Start

This exercise will provide you with basic operational knowledge, and help develop the

skills that will allow you to navigate the pages and menus of your GPS 72 with conﬁdence.

As we progress through the Quick Start Guide, you will often be directed to press a key

or highlight a ﬁeld. When you are directed to press a key, you should press, then release the

key. If the key needs to be held down for a period of time, the instruction will tell you. The

position of the highlight is controlled by the ROCKER key. When a ﬁeld is highlighted, a

dark strip will encompass the ﬁeld.

Let’s start by taking a look at the ﬁve main display pages. They are the GPS Informa-

tion Page, Map Page, Pointer Page, Highway Page and the Active Route Page. You can cycle

through these pages by pressing either the PAGE or QUIT key. When the GPS 72 is turned

on, a Welcome Page will be displayed followed by a Warning Page. Acknowledge these pages

by pressing the PAGE key while they are displayed. The GPS Information Page will now be

displayed.

Quick Start

While learning the basic operation of the GPS 72, lets put the unit into Simulator Mode.

The Simulator Mode is great for practicing with the unit while inside and satellite signals are

not available. While the GPS 72 is in Simulator Mode, the GPS receiver is turned off (this will

help conserve battery power) and the unit cannot be used for actual navigation.

NOTE: Do not try to navigate using the Simulator Mode. While in the Simula-

tor Mode, the GPS receiver is turned off. Any Satellite Signal Strength Indicators

displayed are only simulations and do not indicate the strength of actual satellite

signals.

Activating the Simulator Mode

Press the POWER key to turn the unit on. The Welcome Page will be displayed, press the

PAGE key twice to display the GPS Information Page.

Putting the GPS 72 in Simulator Mode:

1. With the GPS Information Page displayed press the MENU key.

2. Using the ROCKER key, highlight ‘Start Simulator’then press the ENTER key.

When the GPS 72 is placed into Simulator Mode, the message ‘Simulating GPS’will be

displayed along the top of the GPS Information Page.

Quick Start

The Interface keys are your link with the GPS 72. Let’s take a few minutes to explore the

use of each key while learning how to use the unit.

With the GPS Information Page displayed, press the PAGE key several times. Notice that

each time you press the PAGE key, the next main page will be displayed. Do the same with

the QUIT key. The QUIT key is similar to the PAGE key except the pages are displayed in a

reverse sequence. Press the PAGE key until the Map Page is displayed.

Each main page has an Options Menu. This Option Menu contains setup options, and/

or functions that apply to that page.

To display the Map Page Options Menu:

1. Press the MENU key.

Selecting an item on the Options Menu:

1. Using the ROCKER key, highlight ‘Setup Map’.

2. Press ENTER.

Many of the Option and Setup menus in the GPS 72 are arranged in a ‘Tab’layout. Use

the Left /Right ROCKER key to move from Tab to Tab.

The options for each page are covered in depth in the Reference Manual. For now press

the QUIT key. When pressed, the QUIT key stops the current function and returns the unit

to the last main page that was displayed. This is good to know! As you are learning how to

use this unit, if you ﬁnd yourself confused, or start a function that you really don’t want, just

press the QUIT key.

Quick Start

There will be many times that you will need to navigate menus and enter data. An

example is naming a waypoint. The ROCKER key is used for this purpose.

Let’s combine a couple of lessons. We will create a new waypoint, enter a waypoint name,

and assign a symbol to the waypoint.

The term ‘Waypoint’may be new to you. You will ﬁnd the term Waypoint is used fre-

quently when talking about navigation. A Waypoint is a location, stored in the unit’s memory

that can be used for navigation. Waypoints can be used for direct navigation or to build a

Route.

Creating or “Marking”a waypoint with the GPS 72 is easy. The unit has to be turned on,

and receiving at least three satellites (or simulating navigation) to mark a waypoint.

Marking a waypoint:

1. Press and hold the ENTER/MARK key.

When the ENTER/MARK key is held down, the MARK function of the key is acti-

vated. The GPS 72 will capture it’s current location, and display the Mark Waypoint Page.

By default, the unit will assign a square as the symbol, a number as the name, and the ‘OK’

Button will be highlighted. Pressing the ENTER key now would save the waypoint using the

default name and symbol, but let’s change them to something more meaningful.

Changing the symbol:

1. Using the ROCKER key, highlight the Symbol Field, then press ENTER.

2. Using the ROCKER key, highlight the ‘Scenic Area’symbol, then press ENTER.

Entering Data

72 QS Guide RevB.indd 8 10/30/2002, 4:00:10 PM

Quick Start

Changing the name:

1. Using the ROCKER key, highlight the Name Field then press the ENTER key.

2. Press the ROCKER key to the left, this will clear the name ﬁeld.

3. Press the ROCKER key up, scroll through the alpha-numeric list until ‘C’is selected.

4. Press the ROCKER key right to move to the next placeholder.

5. Press the ROCKER key down, scroll through the alpha-numeric list until ‘R’is selected.

You should be starting to get the feel of it. Continue entering letters until you have

spelled the word CREEK.

6. With the letter ‘K’highlighted, press the ENTER key to accept the name.

You can enter any name that you like as long as it does not exceed ten characters, and

does not duplicate a previously saved waypoint. When you have ﬁnished renaming the

waypoint you will need to store it in the units’memory.

To store the waypoint:

1. Using the ROCKER key, highlight the ‘OK’Button and press the ENTER key.

These are the same steps that you will use to enter names, change numbers and select

options in all of the GPS 72 ﬁelds.

Here are a couple of tips:

•If you press and hold the ROCKER key while scrolling through the alpha-numeric list, it

will move quickly.

•You can scroll through the alpha-numeric list in either direction.

•Don’t press the ENTER key until you have ﬁnished entering the data. Remember, use the

ROCKER key to move to the next placeholder.
