Creating a Man Over Board Route

Another type of route is Man Over Board (MOB). The MOB route is useful

when you want to instantly create a route.

To activate MOB, press GOTO. A GOTO

MENU will appear with MOB (the first on

the menu) highlighted. Press ENTER and the

receiver will store the position and set a

GOTO route to it. MOB waypoints will be

created and titled MOB001, MOB002 and so

on. If a MOB already exists, the receiver will

give you the option of replacing the MOB.

To clear a MOB. The CLEAR MOB

function allows you to delete an active MOB

route. While in the GOTO screen, press MENU, highlight CLEAR

MOB and press ENTER. Your MOB will be deleted.

Creating a Backtrack Route

Backtrack creates a route that starts from the last point recorded in track

history, using the “bread crumbs” saved, to the first point recorded for track

history. By following this route, you “retrace your steps” back to the starting

point.

Press MENU, highlight ROUTES and press

ENTER. Press MENU and highlight

BACKTRACK. A route will be created and

given a name in the format of BXXPxx. XX is

the BACKTRACK number and xx is the

waypoint number ranging from 01 to 31. For

example, yout first backtrack will read

B01P01. The backtrack waypoints will be

listed in the menu just as other waypoints.

BACKTRACK routes can be deleted as other routes.
