Advancing to a Waypoint

➤ Once you are following a route, you can advance to the next waypoint, even if

you have not reached the current target waypoint:

1. If necessary, press the GOTO default soft key to display the Goto/Follow

soft keys.

2. Press the WAYPOINT ADVANCE soft key. The current leg of the route is aban-

doned and the next waypoint becomes the target. The display is updated to
show the new route leg.

Restart Cross Track Error (XTE)

While you are 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 yourself off track and want to go straight
to your target, rather than get back onto the original track.

➤ To restart XTE:

1. Press the GOTO default soft key, the Follow/Goto soft keys are displayed.

2. Press the RESTART XTE soft key. The route origin moves to the current vessel

position, thus the XTE becomes zero.

Going To an Individual Target Point

Rather than following a route, you can go directly to a selected target point,
this can be an existing waypoint (not in the current route), or the cursor
position.

➤ To navigate directly to an existing waypoint:

1. Use the trackpad to position the cursor over the required waypoint until the

letters WPT and the waypoint soft keys are displayed.

Alternatively, you can select the waypoint from the waypoint list as described
in Section 5.3.
