Editing Entries in the Waypoint, Route, or Track Lists
You can also use the ST80 Navigator Keypad to edit an existing item or to
name a new item in the Waypoint List, Route List, or Track List. You first must
enter the edit mode for the list you want to modify. Methods for editing each
list are described in the respective sections of this chapter.
➤
To edit an item in a list using the Navigator:
1. If necessary, use the right and left arrow keys to move the cursor to the
desired character position.
2. Press an alphanumeric key until the desired character is displayed. Each
time you press one of these keys in succession, the next character on that
key is input.
or
Use the up and down arrow keys to scroll through the list of alpha,
numeric, and special characters until the desired character is displayed
(just as you would with the fishfinder’s trackpad). Note that you must use
this method to input special characters; they are not available using the
alphanumeric keys.
Use the
del
key to insert a space, if required.
3. Use the arrow keys and alphanumeric keys to input the remainder of the
characters required to complete the editing.
4. When done, press the ins key to enter your changes.
7.4 Working with Routes
A route is made up of a series of waypoints (maximum 50). To make a route
you place a series of waypoints on the chart.
When a route is created it becomes the current route and is displayed on-
screen. The current route is maintained when you power-off. Only one route
can be current and is displayed (if it is in the field-of-view) as solid lines
connecting waypoints. If you are following the route, the current leg is shown
as a dotted line and previous legs are removed from the screen (although the
waypoints remain displayed). The current route (and its waypoints) is
transferred via SeaTalk to a repeater chart display and other instruments. You
can also use the Waypoint Transfer functions to transfer the route database to a
repeater display.
Once you have created a route you can use the
GOTO
soft keys to follow the
route. In addition, the
GOTO
default soft key provides various options as
described in Section 7.5 .
