The list to the right is pr ovided to help you quickly find some of the mor e important pr ocedur es you may use on your new GPSMAP 172/172C. TO DO THIS: SEE P AGE(S): T urn the unit on or off . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Always pr ess and r elease a key to perform its primary func- tion. Pr ess, hold for mor e than one second, then r elease the ENTER/MARK , NA V/MOB, and MENU keys to activate their secondary function.
The GPSMAP 172/172C’ s advanced keypad system is designed to allow for fast, convenient selec- tion of navigation options and data entry . The Getting Started T our introduces you to the keypad and provides a ‘hands-on’ lesson in using the GPSMAP 172/172C.
Naming a waypoint or placing any sort of data that has not been predefined requir es the use of both the ARROW KEYP AD and the ENTER/MARK key . T o enter a name or number in a data field: 1. Once you have accessed a page with programmable data fields (e .
Initializing the Receiver The first time you power up your new GPSMAP 172/172C, the receiver must be given an oppor - tunity to collect satellite data and establish its present position.
T o graphically initialize the GPSMAP 172/172C: 1. Press the MENU k ey twice for the Main Menu. Press Up or Down on the ARROW KEYP AD until the ‘GPS’ tab is highlighted, then press the MENU k ey once . 2. Using the ARROW KEYP AD , highlight ‘Initialize P osition’ and press ENTER to initialize the receiver from the map .
GPSMAP 172/172C Getting Started T our The Garmin GPSMAP 172/172C is a powerful electronic navigation system that pr ovides detailed map coverage and convenient control of many advanced featur es right from the scr een display . This tour is designed to take you through the basic pages and functions of the system using the simulator mode.
Each page of the GPSMAP 172/172C’ s system also features an options page, which gives you access to other functions and features that relate to the specific page you ar e viewing. T o get a feel for how the options pages work, let’ s put the GPSMAP 172/172C into simulator mode.
The Map Page is one of six main pages used in the GPSMAP 172/172C’ s system. The six main pages are the Map Page, Map/Sonar Split Page*, Sonar Page* , Compass Page, Highway Page, and Active Route Page. All pages are linked together in a simple chain, which allows you to scr oll through the pages in either direction using the P AGE and QUIT keys.
Using the Map Cursor W orking from the Map Page is a simple pr ocess that centers ar ound the use of the cursor . Con- trolled by the ARROW KEYP AD , the cursor is an important tool that can be used to pan to other map locations, mark and edit waypoints and routes, and r eview position data of on-screen map items and waypoints.
T o mark your present position: 1. Hold down the ENTER/MARK k ey until the ‘New Waypoint’ window appears then release the k ey. T he window shows a default three-digit waypoint name/number (001), symbol (dot), and position. Y ou can leave the name as the auto-assigned number , but for this exercise , lets change the name to ‘DOCK’.
Going to a Destination GPS is all about marking positions as waypoints and navigating to them using the receiver’ s steer - ing guidance and map displays. W e’ve already seen how to use the ENTER/MARK key to store our present position, so it’ s time to move on to the fun part—going to a destination.
T o activate the practice route stored in memory for navigation: 1. Press NA V . T he option list page appears. (If you were selecting a single waypoint to navigate to rather than a route , you could highlight the w aypoint on the map , press NA V and then press ENTER .
Y ou’ll now have a clearer picture of the r oute you are navigating. Keep in mind that whenever you do exceed the usable range of the built-in database or the optional MapSource or BlueChart data in use, the range field displays ‘OVERZOOM’ to indicate that you should exercise extr eme caution using the map data.
Now that we’re navigating to an actual destination, let’ s move on to the GPSMAP 172/172C naviga- tion pages by pressing the P AGE key three times.
Highway Page The GPSMAP 172/172C’ s Highway Page also pr ovides graphic steering guidance to a destination waypoint, placing greater emphasis on the straight-line desired course and the distance and dir ection you are of f course.
The main pages’ data fields may also be configured to display several dif ferent information catego- ries (see pages 25-26 for the complete list). On the Highway Page, let’ s change the ‘TIME TO NEXT’ field to ‘TIME OF DA Y’. T o change a data field: 1.
T o get a basic feel for how the Main Menu page works, let’ s delete the two waypoints you created during the simulated tour . This ensures that you have a clean slate once you start navigating in your home waters. T o select the Points (W aypoint) submenu tab: 1.
Map Page The GPSMAP 172/172C’ s Map Page pr ovides a comprehensive display of electr onic cartography , plotting and navigational data. When using the unit with the optional BlueChart data or MapSou.
• Whenever you zoom in cursor mode, the cursor is centered on screen. • T o return to position mode, press the QUIT key . When the cursor reaches the edge of the map , the unit may pause as it loads new map data.
T o eliminate the cursor and re-center your position on-screen: 1. Press the QUIT k ey . The cursor may also be used to create new waypoints directly fr om the map. T o create a waypoint with the cursor: 1. Use the ARROW KEYP AD to move the cursor to the desired map position.
Map Page Options Many features of the GPSMAP 172/172C are menu driven. Each of the main pages have an options menu, allowing you to custom tailor the corresponding page to your prefer ences and/or select special features that specifically relate to that page.
