78 Version 3.3
Operator’s Manual Plot
1. Move the magnifying glass to the new waypoint you want to go
to.
2. Press the GOTO function key.
3. Press the E key. You are done!
What the above routine actually does is insert two new waypoints
into your active route. Let’s say that you have an active route with 7
waypoints (21 through 27) in it. Some time after you pass the first 4
waypoints (WPT 24), you decide that you want to alter your course
to a waypoint in the Waypoint Bank, but you can’t recall the
waypoint number. So you go into the PLOT1 screen, locate WPT
35 with the magnifying glass and press the GOTO function key. At
this point, the active route (RTE1) is modified by placing a new
waypoint, your present position (i.e. WPT 1996), after WPT 24.
This new waypoint is shown in inverse video, indicating that you
have already passed the position. This is good for you because you
can indicate in your logs later on when and where you altered your
course by the time stamp and coordinates in WPT 1996. Next, you
will see WPT 35 in normal video, followed by waypoints 25, 26,
and 27.
