lete automatically the existing route (if in Navigation mode), or
append the waypoint to the existing route (if in Cursor mode),
then go back to Navigation mode and enable automatically the
Autozoom function.
Besides the specific set of services shown in the figure, a
generic set is available. It gathers several additional services
(such as hotels, restaurants, airports, shops, etc.) that can be
searched for and located thanks to the Nearest function.
Tide or current forecast at the nearest survey station
NOTE: This function is available only with the NAVIONICS cartridges containing
Tides and Currents data.
This function allows displaying, within the space of twenty-
four hours with respect to the selected date, the tide level and
tidal current speed and direction at a survey station in the
vicinity. Unlike the estimated data shown in the Info win-
dow, this forecast is much more accurate, being supplied di-
rectly by tidal surveying stations.
Press the GOTO key, select NEAREST by the joystick, choose
the Tides or Currents service, then press ENTER to confirm.
The GEONAV will allow selecting one of the three nearest
Tides and Currents stations. Use the joystick to choose the
station desired, then press ENTER to confirm. A window will
show the information reported below.
