waypoint when you pass the To waypoint. The default [To WPT] is WPT2.
If you desire a different one, select it here and the click the [GO] button.
[Distance] Distance from current position to selected waypoint.
[Departure] The time the route was selected for monitoring.
[Actual Average
SPD]
The average speed over the ground, measured every 30 seconds.
2 Waypoint list The waypoint list provides for each waypoint WPT no., name, latitude and
longitude position, ETA, plan speed, bearing and distance to leg*, steering
mode ([Rhumbline] or [Greatcircle]), radius, XTD limit, speed max, margin
and local time.
*: The bearing to a leg and the display method for leg distance can be
changed. For details, see paragraph 12.4.1. Can be changed. See

[Plan] The ETA to the selected waypoint if the planned speed is maintained
[Actual] The ETA to the selected waypoint if current speed is maintained.
[To Localtime] Switch between UTC and local time for ETA. For local time, the settings
used in the creation of the route are used for the ETA calculation. See
section 12.4.1.
[Off Plan] The time difference between planned ETA and calculated ETA to final
WPT, when different. The indication is prefixed with "-" if earlier than

Enter speed and ETA (time and date) to find the speed to use to arrive by
the ETA.
[Start Calculate]

[Suggested
SPD]
The system calculates suggested speed so that ETA to the WPT selected
would be same as planned ETA if type of optimization was "Time table".
4 [Total WPTs] The total number of waypoints in the route.
[Total Distance] The total distance of the route.
