Routes
A route consists of a series of routepoints entered in the order that you want to navigate
them.
When you select a route on the chart panel it turns green, and the route name is displayed.
The system includes support for Navionics Autorouting and C-MAP Easy Routing. This feature
automatically suggests routepoints between the first and last routepoint of a route, or
between selected routepoints in a complex route. You can use the feature when you create a
new route, or you can use it to edit already saved routes.
Creating a new route on the chart panel
1. Activate the cursor on the chart panel
2. Select the new route option from the menu
3. Position the first waypoint on the chart panel
4. Continue positioning new routepoints on the chart panel until the route is completed
5. Save the route by selecting the save option in the menu.
Edit a route from the chart panel
1. Select the route to make it active
2. Select the route edit option in the menu
3. Position the new routepoint on the chart panel:
-
If you set the new routepoint on a leg, a new point is added between existing
routepoints
- If you set the new routepoint outside the route, the new routepoint is added after the
last point in the route
4. Drag a routepoint to move it to a new position
5. Save the route by selecting the save option in the menu.
Ú
Note: The menu changes depending on the selected edit option. All edits are confirmed
or cancelled from the menu.
Dock-to-dock Autorouting and Easy Routing
The Dock-to-dock Autorouting and Easy Routing suggest new routepoint positions based on
information in the map and on your boat's size. Before you can start using this feature the
boat draught, width and height must be entered into the system. The boat settings dialog is
automatically displayed if the information is missing when you start the feature.
Ú
Note: Units designed for sale in the U.S. region do not have Autorouting capabilities.
Autorouting features are disabled on all non-U.S. units when they are used in U.S.
territorial waters.
Ú
Note: It is not possible to start the Dock-to-dock Autorouting or Easy Routing if one of
the selected routepoints is located in an unsafe area. A warning dialog is displayed, and
you have to move the relevant routepoint(s) to a safe area to proceed.
Ú
Note: If no compatible cartography is available, the Dock-to-dock Autorouting or Easy
Routing menu option is not available. Compatible cartography includes C-MAP MAX-N+,
Navionics+ and Navionics Platinum. For a full selection of available charts, visit
www.gofreemarine.com, www.c-map.com or www.navionics.com.
1. Position at least two routepoints on a new route, or open an existing route for editing.
2. Select Dock-to-dock Autorouting, followed by:
- Entire Route if you want the system to add new routepoints between the first and the
last routepoint of the open route.
- Selection if you want to manually select the routepoints that define the limits for the
autorouting, then select the relevant routepoints. Selected routepoints are colored red.
Only two routepoints can be selected, and the system discards any routepoints
between your selected start and end points.
