3.2 Setting Up and Using On-Screen Routes
The ROUTE soft key provides a quick and easy method of setting up (or
selecting) and using a route.
Note: You can also create, edit and control routes using the
EDIT
menu options,
as described in Chapter 5.
The chartplotter can store up to 20 routes in the route list. When you want to
create a new route, you can either select an empty position in the list, or select
an existing route and edit it.You can also erase routes. If you need to keep more
than 20 routes, you can save the information to a memory card (see Chapter 6).
Note: If you have two chartplotters on your system, the current route (active or
selected) or
GO TO
on one chartplotter is displayed as Route 0 on the other
chartplotter. It is therefore advisable to avoid using Route 0 when you create a
route.
When you press the ROUTE soft key, a menu such as the following is displayed:
D3826-1
SELECT
ROUTE 01
RTE 1
MAKE / EDIT
ERASE
FOLLOW
REVERSE
NEXT LEG
Note: The route number selection defaults to the last-used route. The available
menu options depend on the contents of the selected route: If this route is empty,
only the Make/Edit option is displayed; if the selected route is Route 0 and it is
the active route from another chartplotter, the
ERASE
and
REVERSE
options are
not displayed.
The menu options are as follows:
MAKE / EDIT Used to set up a new route using the cursor. You can also use
this option to edit an existing route, adding and removing
waypoints, and to edit route information such as waypoint
names and symbols.
ERASE Used to clear the existing route from memory.
This deletes the route, but not its component waypoints.
FOLLOW Used to start tracking to the first waypoint on the route.
or OFF Used to stop tracking. This soft key is displayed instead of
FOLLOW when a route is already active.
REVERSE Used to reverse the tracking order of the waypoints in the
route.
NEXT LEG Used to proceed to the next leg of the route.
