If you subsequently use the
FOLLOW ROUTE
soft key to restart navigation, the
route is followed from the point at which it was stopped. This is indicated by a
square around the target waypoint. If you want to follow from another
waypoint you can initiate the follow then use the
WAYPOINT ADVANCE
or
FOLLOW FROM HERE
soft key to step through the route.
7.6 Transferring Waypoints and Routes
Displayed SeaTalk Waypoints
When a route is made current on any SeaTalk equipment in an integrated
system, it is sent to all SeaTalk instruments including this chartplotter. This
route will override any other current route. When
GOTO
waypoint or
GOTO
cursor is in operation it is considered a route.
The current route can be edited on any instrument with route edit capability.
Note: Transferred waypoints that are part of a route are not automatically
saved by the chartplotter, however you can save the route locally, thus adding
the waypoints to the local waypoint list.
Managing Database Lists
There are several methods of maintaining database lists. The method you
choose will depend on the links available (

, SeaTalk or NMEA) and
whether you want to transfer individual waypoints or the complete waypoint
and route list:
• You can save the complete Waypoint and Route Lists to a user cartridge in
the chart card slot.
• You can load new Waypoint and Route Lists from a user cartridge in the
chart card slot.
• If waypoints are transmitted by other equipment on SeaTalk or NMEA,
you can receive them on the chartplotter.
When
RECEIVE WPTS FROM ST/NMEA
is selected, any waypoints sent on
SeaTalk or NMEA are transferred and appended, one-by-one, to the way-
point list. Routes sent on NMEA are appended to the route list.
You can use this function to add waypoints from a PC connected via
NMEA.
• You can send the waypoint and route lists from the chartplotter to other
instruments via NMEA using the
SEND WPT LIST
function.
Sending the waypoint list does not affect current routes.
The NMEA link could be to a PC.
