11 - ETA Management

The NavInfo ETA Panel provides you with the ability to define up to five estimated
times of arrival (ETA) for active Waypoints in a Route or to specify an ETA to
specific river mile marks. If you are currently using an active route, an ETA sub-
panel is available where you can specify waypoints for ETA information.
If you are not using an active route and you have river mile data installed, a sub-
panel is available where you can specify the river, the river mile mark, and a speed
over ground to use as the destination or endpoint for the ETA.
Information in the ETA panel includes:

To: The river abbreviation and the river mile mark or Waypoint name you selected.

in—The time before you reach this waypoint appears. The format is day(s),
hour(s), minute(s).
miles—The distance in statute miles before you reach the waypoint or river
mile mark. Nautical miles, statue miles, and kilometers are used for ETAs
of an active route depending on the setting on the Units tab under System
Menu | Options
but only statue miles are used in the river mile data ETAs.

To open the ETA windows for waypoints and river mile marks, click the down arrow
in the top right corner of this panel.

NOTE:

The ETA time and distance are calculated using the GPS location. If

never appears in the distance field, the point has been passed, it can no
longer be reached, or the boat is no longer close enough to the mile marks.

If you activate a mark and view the ETA Panel, only one ETA will be available.
