5.4 Creating Routes
In many cases a trip from one place to an-
other involves several course changes, re-
quiring a series of route points (waypoints)
which you navigate to, one after another.
The sequence of waypoints leading to the ul-
timate destination is called a route. The RP-
17 can automatically advance to the next
waypoint on a route, so you do not have to
change the destination waypoint repeatedly.
The figure below shows an example of a route
between two ports, involving six waypoints.
You can store up to 10 routes. A route may
contain up to 30 waypoints.
