6.10.2 GOTO Options

GOTO Options are also provided to initiate a

TracBack route or cancel the current GOTO destina-
tion.

To display the GOTO Options, press MENU (immediately

after pressing

#

).

The following options are available:
TracBack - allows you to retrace your path using

the track log automatically stored in the receiver’s
memory. This eliminates the need to store waypoints
along the way. (See page 80 for more information about
TracBack.)

Cancel GOTO - cancels the current GOTO desti-

nation and resumes navigation of any previously select-
ed route. If no route is currently in use; bearing, dis-
tance, etc. will remain blank until a destination way-
point is defined.

6.10.3 Man Overboard (MOB)

MOB lets you simultaneously mark and set a

course to a position for quick response in an emer-
gency. Once an MOB has started, an MOB symbol will
appear on the map display and the navigation screens
will guide you back to the ‘MOB’ waypoint.

To start MOB:

1. Press and hold

#

to capture the MOB position.

2. Press ENTER to begin navigating back to the ‘MOB’ way-

point.

3. To cancel the MOB function, select ‘Cancel

#

’ from the

#

Options and press ENTER.

Each time an MOB is activated, any previous ‘MOB’

position stored in memory will the overwritten and
permanently lost. If you wish to save an ‘MOB’ way-
point for future use, you should give the waypoint a
new name using the steps outlined on pages 74-77.
