Pressing the PRESET softkey changes the active preset number. The filter page
settings change as each different preset number is selected. Similarly, the PAGE
softkey changes the filter pages applicable to the selected preset.
IT IS MOST IMPORTANT to understand that the ‘active preset’ is always the
filter that is applied to the NAVTEX message display – even when the preset
selection is not visible.
Presets can be used to switch quickly between different sets of messages filter
selections. For instance, if you want to show ‘weather warnings from all stations in
range’, you can set up a preset number for that specific display.
Tip : Start by using 'preset 1' for normal operation, only use the other presets once
you are familiar with the way presets work and want to switch quickly between
different sets of message selections.
Station Selection
If you leave all NAVTEX stations selected for viewing (subject to your current
location) you may quickly become overwhelmed with NAVTEX messages.
By filtering out unwanted stations, you can greatly reduce the amount of
unnecessary messages that are displayed. Station filtering can be automatic or by
manual selection.
Automatic selection§ can be used if a GPS is connected to the system.
The 'in range' stations are then calculated based on the information
stored in the station database.
Manual Station selection is used whenever a GPS position fix is
unavailable, or can be used to override an automatic selection.
