Course
The Suunto M9i allows to load 10 different race courses into
the memory. These courses have the unique ability to store
the same waypoint (buoy) several times, into the waypoint
list.
If exact buoy positions are not known, updating the location
of a certain buoy also updates all the same buoys in the
waypoint list. This is helpful when going around the buoys
multiple times. The Suunto M9i can thus calculate layline and
other information related to the buoys once their exact location
has first been updated (see Suunto Sail Manager Help).
The user can select a course from the Suunto M9i memory.
To select a course:
1. In the Function menu, scroll to
Course
with the Arrow
buttons and short press
Enter
.
2. Select a course with the arrow buttons and short press
Enter
