5.6 Transferring Waypoints and Routes
Displayed SeaTalk Waypoints
In an integrated system, when a route is made current on any SeaTalk
equipmentit issent to all SeaTalk instruments,includingthis chartplotter; this
route will override any other current route. When GOTO waypoint or GOTO
cursor is in operation it is considered a route.
The current route can be edited on any instrument with route edit capability.
Note: Transferredwaypoints arenot automaticallysaved by the chartplotter,
howeveryou can savethe route locally,thus addingthe waypoints tothe local
waypoint list.
Managing Database Lists
There are several methods of maintaining database lists. The method you
choose will depend on the links available (SeaTalk, NMEA or
hsb

), and
whether you want to transfer individual waypoints or the complete waypoint
and route list:
• You can save the complete Waypoint and RouteLists to a user cartridge in
the chart card slot.
• You canload new Waypoint and Route Lists from a user cartridge in the
chart card slot.
• If waypoints are transmitted by other equipment on SeaTalk or NMEA,
you can receive them on the chartplotter.
When RECEIVE WPTS FROM ST/NMEA is selected, any waypoints sent on
SeaTalk or NMEA are transferred and appended, one-by-one, to the way-
point list; routes sent on NMEA are appended to the route list.
You can use this function to add waypoints from a PC connected via
NMEA.
• You can send the waypoint and route lists from the chartplotter to other
instruments via NMEA using the SEND WPT LIST function.
Sending the waypoint list does not affect current routes.
