ROUTES
A route is a planned course of travel defined by a series of waypoints. To
create a route, you must already have waypoints stored in the receiver’s
memory. These waypoints are then connected to form the segments or
“legs” of the route. A route may contain from one to fifteen legs.
Activating a GOTO Route
The GOTO function enables you to create a simple one-leg route from
your present position to a defined waypoint. When a GOTO is active,
the title bar of the NAV and PLOT screens display “TO Destination
Waypoint” and the screens display the corresponding navigation
information.
GOTO
Use ARROW KEYS
to select
destination waypoint
ENTER
Press GOTO, use the UP/DOWN
ARROWs to highlight the desired
destination waypoint, and press
ENTER.
The first four selections in the GOTO menu allow you to create a Man
OverBoard, Backtrack or Coordinate route or to activate an existing
route. MOB, BCKTRK and COORD functions are discussed at the end of
the Route section.
It is also possible to activate a GOTO from the PAN N SCAN feature on
the PLOT screen as described earlier.
The receiver begins navigating toward the selected waypoint and the
display returns to the last viewed NAV screen.
It is necessary to have a current position fix in order to correctly activate
a GOTO. If you have a current position fix, the NAV screens will display
navigation data, if not, the navigation data will be replaced by dashes.
If a route, GOTO, or MOB is already active, the new GOTO
automatically replaces it and becomes the active route.
A GOTO always uses your current position as the starting point.
If the unit has not yet computed a position fix, then the start of
the GOTO may not represent your current position.
