knob. The symbol and name for the selected
waypoint turn yellow. When entering a new point, it is named "QP<001".

A light-blue line connects the own ship with the first destination, and green dotted
lines connect between other waypoints. The line shows the shortest course to the
destination. Arrows on the line show the direction to follow to get to the destina-
tion. When selecting [DISTANCE TO WAYPOINT], [BEARING TO WAYPOINT],
[WAYPOINT ETA, TTG] for destination information, range and bearing from own
ship to the first destination, ETA and TTG to the first destination appear on the
NAV information box. The route is saved to the routes list, under the name
"Q<RTE".
Note:
Each time a quick point route is entered, previous quick point route is written
over. When entering a new quick waypoint, "QP<001" is removed from the "Q<RTE".
