Automatic Station Selection Using GPS
Many users will just want to display messages from the nearest
NAVTEX station, or only from stations that provide information in their
cruising area. This is easily achieved by connecting a GPS receiver and
letting the NAV6
plus
automatically make the best selection.
Go to the [NAVTEX Mode

Select the required 'active preset number' (use preset 1 if you are just
starting for the first time).
•
Use
the
LEFT or RIGHT key to move between the 'In Range' or
'Nearest' setting.
•
Provided all the station names have 'Auto' next to them and the
GPS position fix is valid, an asterisk will appear to the right of the
currently selected station names.
•
Ensure that all the stations that you want to view have a asterisk by
them.
You can still override an automatic selection by 'forcing' an individual
station 'ON or OFF'
To do this, move the cursor over the station name, use the LEFT &
RIGHT cursor keys to change between ON, OFF (or back to AUTO).
Tip : You may wish to set your ‘home’ station to always 'ON' so that you
can display its messages even if it is not currently an automatically
selected station
.
