Building a route
Routes can either be built on screen or via the waypoint list. A route consists of:
• New waypoints that you have specifically placed for that route Or :
• Existing waypoints that are already stored in the system Or:
• A combination of new and existing waypoints.
Note:
A route can also be created from a track. See page 80 for details.
Up to 100 routes can be added to your system, each consisting of up to 50 waypoints.
As each waypoint is added, it is assigned an index number corresponding to its
position in the route and drawn on the chart using the currently specified symbol.
The following should be noted:
• When a route is being built it is not active and does not affect any current naviga-
tion.
• You can include a waypoint more than once in a route, but the same waypoint can-
not be placed consecutively.
• You can create a new route when the route list is full but on saving this, you will be
prompted to choose an existing route to overwrite.
• You cannot save a new route if any of the waypoints within it are currently active.
• The way in which the OK and CANCEL buttons operate is different when you are
building and editing routes (see below).
Building a route on screen
You can build a route on screen that consists of either new or existing waypoints or a
combination of both.
