Creating new waypoint with UTM

Hello!

I want to create a new waypoint using UTM coords. In the screenshot you can see which one and what I type in.

I already tried it with and without typing the last digit. (The apache does not accept the last digit on UTM, if I am correct?)

But when I hit ENTER the line starts blinking, not accepting my coords. What I am doing wrong?

I am pushing buttons in this order: POINT - ADD - Selecting WP as TYPE - FREE TEXT is xxx - I clear the default coords - enter new coords.

I got the answer from Raptor over at Discord!

"Drop the last digits of the easting and northing groups - It can only be 8 digits. You are trying to enter 10"

For whatever reason I thought only the last digit of the second block should be omitted, but it needs both to be not present.

So for "38 T ML 75730 63543" I would now enter "38 T ML 7573 6354" to get 8 digits after the ML.
