62 A65 GPS Chartplotter
CAUTION: Navigation Aid
The equipment should not be used as a substitute for good
navigational practice nor for official government paper charts. Do
not use the chartplotter before you have read the Important
Information section at the beginning of this handbook.
4.2 Man Overboard (MOB)
If you lose a person or object overboard, and need to return to the location, you
should use the Man Overboard (MOB) function immediately.
The MOB function can be used while any application is in use and is activated by
pressing the WPTS/MOB key for three seconds.
When a MOB message is activated the following is initiated automatically:
• A MOB waypoint is placed at your current position on the chart screen.
• The page splits to display the CDI screen, also marked with the MOB posi-
tion
• The MOB alarm is triggered and repeated every 30 seconds
• Navigation to any active waypoint is suspended and any existing naviga-
tion function is cancelled. No further GOTO or route functions are select-
able.
• As your vessel moves away from the MOB position, a dotted line is dis-
played from your current position to the MOB position.
Note:
To obtain a MOB position, you need position data from the GPS.
You can clear a MOB and its data by pressing and holding the WPTS/MOB key.
Once cleared, the chart application returns to its state prior to the MOB alarm and
the GOTO and route functions are again available.
