5.4 Following Routes and Going to Target Points
The
GOTO
key accesses the functions to follow a route or go to a
waypoint, port, nearest facility or current cursor position. When the target
destination is selected, the chartplotter calculates bearing, distance and
cross track error; this information can be repeated on other
instrumentation and passed to an autopilot via NMEA. Cross Track Error
(XTE) can be reset to zero from the actual vessel position.
When the chartplotter is following a route, the target destination is
indicated by a square around the waypoint (or cursor marker) and a dotted
line shows the intended track, from the start point or previous waypoint,
to the target waypoint.
This section explains how to perform the following tasks:
•
Follow a route
•
Reverse a route
•
Target Point Arrival
•
Altering the route, including joining at a selected waypoint, advanc-
ing waypoints and restarting XTE
•
Go to an individual point, either an existing waypoint or the cursor
•
Go to the nearest facility or a selected port
•
Stop and Restart Follow/Goto
An alarm is triggered when approaching a waypoint.
Chapter 4
describes
how to set the alarm.

To access the follow and GoTo functions:
1. Press
GOTO
to display the first level GoTo functions:
2. Select
MORE
to display the second level GoTo functions
3. Select
MORE
to return to the first level functions.
4. Press
CLEAR
to return to the chart screen.
Note:
The functions differ if a
FOLLOW
or
GOTO
is already in progress
(see Stop Follow or Stop GoTo on page 72).
