5.3 Working with Waypoints
Introduction
The HSB series Chartplotter enables you to place up to 998 waypoints: a
waypoint is a position entered on a chart as a reference, or as a place to go to. All
waypoints
placed on the chartplotter are stored in a waypoint database list
which includes symbol, position, bearing, range and additional data. All
waypoints in the database are displayed on the screen, unless you set waypoint
display off in the Chart Set Up menu, as described in
Chapter 7 . You can select
a waypoint, either on-screen or from the list, for editing.
The waypoint is usually placed at the cursor position, you can also place a
waypoint at the vessel’s current position (this is sometimes known as an event
mark); a waypoint at the vessel position includes additional information (if
available) on the depth and temperature when it was placed. Both types of
waypoint can be included in a route. You can place waypoints, using simulator
mode, before you install the chartplotter on your vessel.
Note: Radar marks may also be displayed on the screen if your chartplotter is a
combined radar/chartplotter or is part of an integrated system; these are
screen annotations -
you cannot go to marks, nor can they be included in
routes.
When you place a new waypoint, it is displayed using the default symbol of a
cross. The waypoint is added to the waypoint list and tagged with the next
available number. You can use the edit functions to change the symbol and
name. When the cursor is positioned over a waypoint, the waypoint bearing and
range are displayed.
Waypoints in the current route are available on other SeaTalk instruments that
support currrent route transfer, for example, another HSB series chartplotter or
ST80 Masterview. You can also transfer waypoints between the chartplotter
and other NMEA or SeaTalk instruments using the Waypoint Transfer
functions.
This section explains how to perform the following tasks using the on-screen
cursor and the waypoint list:
• Placing a Waypoint
• Selecting a Waypoint
• Displaying Waypoint data
• Editing a Waypoint (symbol, name & position)
• Erasing a Waypoint
• Moving a Waypoint
