56 C-Series Display Reference Manual
4.9 Navigating to a specific point
You can use your chart to navigate to a specific point marked by the cursor (temporary
waypoint) or to a waypoint. If required you can display the largest chart scale possible
that will display both your boat and the target waypoint. When you navigate to a
waypoint or to the cursor position, the data is sent on NMEA 0183 and SeaTalk and can
be used by an autopilot, if connected. On arrival at the specified point a message is
displayed and an alarm sounds.
When you are steering manually, you can also use the chart to determine the bearing
or direction to steer.
Note:
If you are currently navigating a route or going to the cursor /waypoint, you
must press
STOP GOTO,
before the system can commence a new GOTO request.
To go to the cursor position:
