If the receiver has not yet computed a position fix, then the start
of the GOTO may not represent your current position. It will,
however, correct the navigation information after a position fix is
acquired.

Creating a GOTO Route

After computing a position fix, press
GOTO. Use the UP/DOWN ARROWs
to highlight the waypoint that
represents your destination.

The first four selections in the GOTO
menu allow you to create a Man
OverBoard (MOB), Backtrack, or
Coordinate route or to activate an
existing route; they are discussed in the
Reference Section.

Press ENTER. The receiver begins
navigating toward the selected
waypoint and the display returns to the
last viewed NAV screen. Note that the
destination is now placed in the header
bar of the NAV screen.

It is necessary to have a current position fix in order for the
receiver to compute navigation information. If you do not have
a position fix, the navigation information will be displayed with
dashes until a position fix is acquired.
