Waypoints, Routes & Navigation
ProMARK X
5-4
Saving an Averaged Position as a Waypoint
. The ProMARK X produces
two types of averaged position fixes. It produces AVG, which is the average
of a preset number of fixes or the average of the fixes collected before the
preset number is reached. The unit also produces
¢
TMP, which is the
average of the last two position fixes until the preset number of fixes has been
reached;
¢
TMP is then the average of AVG and the most recent position fix.
AVG and
¢
TMP are automatically saved as temporary waypoints, and can be
viewed with the WPT key. They are replaced as soon as the unit computes
another AVG or
¢
TMP, and cannot be used in a route. To save these
temporary waypoints or to use them in a route, they must first be copied to
new waypoint names as described in
Renaming a Waypoint
.
Waypoint AVG can either be copied to another name from the position
display after averaging (with DIF1) is complete, or retrieved from the buffer
with AUX 5. Waypoint
¢
TMP can be saved only by retrieving it from the
buffer.
As soon as the desired averaged position is displayed, press
ENTER
. The
unit displays
¢
and a cursor. Key in any three characters and press
ENTER
again. You can also name the averaged waypoint automatically by
pressing
ENTER
without keying in any characters. The waypoint will be
named in the format “
¢
yyy”, where “yyy”is any number from 001 to
999, in sequence.
The
¢
is required to identify the position as an averaged position. If you do
not use the mean symbol, the unit will not store the figure of merit or the
number of fixes, and
¢
SQ and
¢
PDOP will be displayed as SQ and PDOP. You
will have no way to identify this as an averaged position.
Viewing Stored Waypoints
. Use the following key sequence to access and
view a waypoint or a saved average position.
Press
WPT
. Waypoints are accessed
by using
RIGHT ARROW
to scroll
through all of the stored waypoints
or by keying in all or part of a waypoint
name followed by
ENTER
.
Press the
DOWN ARROW
to see
the datum, date, and time of the
position fix for the displayed
waypoint.
