Navigating to a Waypoint using the Plotter
The unique “birds-eye” view used by the plotter gives you an easy way to
navigate to a waypoint. On the plotter screen shown on the previous
page, the diamond with a cross in it is your present position. The box with
the “S” in it was your starting location when you recalled the waypoint.
The dotted line is called a track line and is the shortest path from the
starting location to the destination. The number “1” is waypoint number
one, which is the recalled waypoint and the destination. The “D” on the
plotter screen at the top of this page is the cursor destination, when the
cursor position is used as a destination. If you follow the track line, you’ll
reach the destination, covering the shortest distance in the least time.
CAUTION!
The GlobalNav 200 does NOT take land features, altitudes, restricted or
prohibited areas, or any other feature into account when it projects the
track line on the screen. Therefore, you must use care when navigating
on the track line and avoid any object that may be in your path to the
destination.
CANCEL NAVIGATION
The GlobalNav 200 continues to navigate to a re-
called waypoint, the last waypoint in a route, or
the cursor position until you stop it.
To stop the navigation function, press the MENU
key, then press the up or down arrow keys until
the “Cancel Navigation” label is highlighted. Press
the right arrow key. The unit stops showing navi-
gation information.
