Man OverBoard (MOB)

Use the Man OverBoard function to simultaneously mark and set a course to a

location for quick response to emergency situations.

To initiate the MOB function:

NAV/MOB key.

2. Press the

location.

When an MOB is initiated, an MOB waypoint with an international MOB symbol

Creating and Using Routes

You can create and store up to 50 reversible routes (numbered 1–50), with up to

300 points each.

Creating a New Route

Using the Route tab on the Main Menu, you can create a new route in one of two

ways. You can select waypoints or map items on the map window, allowing you

to see each route point on the screen as you create the route, or you can select

waypoints from the waypoint list, allowing you to see a list of the route points as

you create the route.

To create a new route using the map window:

1. Press and hold

ADJ/MENU to open the Main Menu.

2. Use the

ROCKER to highlight the Routes tab.

3. Press the

New Route soft key. The Route map window appears, and

the position marker ( ) changes to the map pointer ( ) with “ADD”

underneath it.

4. Use the

ROCKER to highlight the location you want to add to your route,

and press

ENTER. As you add each new waypoint to the route, the

upper-left corner of the screen shows the waypoint name. The bottom of

the screen shows you the number of available points.

Repeat this step

until you finish defining all route waypoints.

NOtE: If you select an area of the map that is not a feature or waypoint, a new

waypoint is created for that location.
