Notes about navigation routes:
-
Creating a route is only possible if at least 1 waypoint is available in the instrument.
-
Creating a waypoint requires a name, its GPS coordinates, and its altitude. The
altitude is not mandatory, but is required to display the “glide ratio to waypoint” item.
-
If you already have a waypoints file, it is possible to send this file with the
SYS PC Tool by clicking the “
Send a file to the instrument
” icon.
Waypoint files should be in Oziexplorer or CompeGPS .wpt format.
-
Using
(above versions 5.28 for PC, 0.52 for Mac and
0.24 for Linux) is also an alternative solution. GPSDump supports more
waypoints file formats, and handles waypoints more efficiently. Please
note that GPSDump will not erase existing waypoints in the instruments whereas SYS PC
Tool will.
-
To skip a waypoint before reaching it, and switch to the next one, you can click
one the
“Switch to the next waypoint”
icon in the navigation menu (only visible
when a route is active)
-
To be able to follow your route, you must insert dedicated items, such as
“waypoint information”
in your screen configuration file (See
“Customize the flight screen and vario”)
