What is the Waypoint Advance warning?
The SmartPilot activates the Waypoint Advance warning (NEXT WPT?) in
Track mode whenever the target waypoint name changes. This occurs when:
•

you request waypoint advance by pressing track for 1 second in Track
mode (with SeaTalk navigators only)
•
the boat arrives at the target and the navigator accepts the next waypoint
•
you activate the Man Overboard (MOB) function (see page 23)
When the warning sounds, the SmartPilot continues on its current heading
but displays:
•
the bearing to the next waypoint
•
the direction the boat will turn to take up that bearing

advance by pressing:
•
