data)
•
Entry of bearing and distance
Direct entry of bearing and distance from current position of the ship can be calculated.
Up to 499 waypoints can be entered which are numbered from 001 to 499.
To store new numbers and to recall old ones, a number must be entered.
Thus it is a good idea to record the waypoint number and waypoint name in the waypoint list in Appendix
E. (Or in a copy of this list.)
The following function can be used to look for a registered waypoint.
•
Sorting the waypoint list in number order (default) or in alphabetic order.
(4) Waypoint symbol
It is possible to display the first letter of the waypoint name as a waypoint mark on the display.
This display function can be turned on and off.
