To advance to a waypoint:
1. Press the GOTO default soft key to display the Goto/Follow soft keys.

Restart Cross Track Error (XTE)
Whilst following a route or going to a target point, you can restart the
XTE. This sets the XTE to zero and moves the origin to the actual vessel
position.
Restarting XTE is useful if you find the vessel off track and prefer to go
straight to your target, rather than going back to the original track.

To restart XTE:
1. Press the GOTO default soft key, the Follow/Goto soft keys are dis-
played.
2. Press the RESTART XTE soft key. The route origin moves to the vessel’s
current position, resetting the XTE to zero.

To stop following the route or target point either:
• If necessary, press the GOTO soft key, then press the STOP GOTO/FOL-

• Move the cursor over any waypoint or leg in the current route, then

The dotted line from your vessel to the target waypoint disappears.
If you subsequently use the FOLLOW ROUTE soft key to restart navigation,
the route is followed from the point at which it was stopped. This is

from another waypoint you can initiate the follow then use the WAYPOINT
ADVANCE or FOLLOW FROM HERE soft key to step through the route.

You can set up target alarms (see Alarms & Timers on page 3-45) to alert
you when the vessel is approaching the target point. The arrival alarm is
defined as an invisible circle, with a specified radius, around the target.
The alarm is triggered when either of the following conditions is met:
