Routes
A route consists of a series of routepoints entered in the order that you want to navigate
them.
When you select a route on the chart panel it will turn green, and the route name will be
displayed.
The system includes support for Navionics Autorouting and Jeppesen Easy Routing. This
feature automatically suggest routepoints between the first and last routepoint of a route, or
between selected routepoints in a complex route. You can use the feature when you create a
new route, or you can use it to edit already saved routes.

Autorouting and Easy Routing
The Autorouting and Easy Routing suggest new routepoint positions based on information
in the map and on your boat's size. Before you can start using this feature the boat draught,
width and height must be entered into the system. The boat settings dialog will
automatically be displayed if the information is missing when you start the feature.
Ú Note: Zeus 2 Processor units designed for sale in the U.S. region will not have Autorouting or
Easy Routing capabilities. Autorouting or Easy Routing features are disabled on all non-U.S.
units when they are used in U.S. territorial waters.
Ú Note: It is not possible to start the Autorouting or Easy Routing if one of the selected
routepoints is located in an unsafe area. A warning dialog will be displayed, and you have to
move the relevant routepoint(s) to a safe area to proceed.
Ú Note: If no compatible cartography is available the Autorouting or Easy Routing menu
option will not be available. Compatible cartography includes Jeppesen CMAP MAX-N+,
Navionics+ and Navionics Platinum. For a full selection of available charts please visit
