Track Waypoint
!
WARNING
In some Precision Pilot modes—"Auto Heading," "Track Waypoint," and "Waypoint Sequence"—the boat navigates a preset
course. The boat does not automatically respond to hazards such as other watercraft, obstacles, swimmers, or underwater
terrain. Collision with these hazards could cause boat damage, serious injury, or death. The operator must stay at the helm,
ready to evade hazards and warn others of course changes.
IMPORTANT: Track Waypoint can only be used with chart plotters approved by CMD.
Track Waypoint allows the boat to automatically navigate to a specific waypoint or sequence of waypoints, called a waypoint route.
Waypoint data needs to be provided to VesselView by a third party chart plotter. Refer to your chart plotter's user manual for
details.
Engaging Track Waypoint Mode
To engage the Track Waypoint mode of Axius Premier:
1. Turn on the chart plotter and select a single waypoint or waypoint route to be tracked.
2. Place at least one ERC handle in forward gear. Track Waypoint does not function if both handles are in neutral or reverse.
3. Manually steer the boat to the direction of the first waypoint and hold the boat steady at a safe operating speed.
