Arrival Alarm
The change of active waypoint also occurs when the distance remaining
between the vessel and the destination waypoint is less than the distance
set for the arrival alarm. Example: If the arrival alarm is set to 1 nautical
mile, C becomes the new destination waypoint as soon as the vessel
enters the circle of 1 nautical mile radius around point B.
