10-2 Managing routes
A route is a list of waypoints that the boat can navigate
along. Routes can be created, changed and deleted.
The TRACKER can have up to 25 routes. Each route
can have up to 50 waypoints. A route can:
Start and stop at the same waypoint .
Include waypoints more than once.
The TRACKER can navigate along a route in either
direction. Waypoints on the route can be skipped.
Routes are a powerful feature when the TRACKER
is connected to an autopilot, allowing the vessel to
be automatically guided along the route.
Warning: Make sure that routes do not cross
land or dangerous water.
