Routes
A route consists of a number of defined waypoints and
adjoining lines (legs). Waypoints
are marked by small
circles; legs are displayed as straight lines between two
waypoints. If a waypoint has both an approaching leg
and a departing leg, the system automatically generates
a turn at the waypoint to indicate the planned path of
the ship. Wheelover
marks are represented by short
lines, in the same colour as the route, which cross the
track at a relatively short distance before the turn begins. The distance is
configurable to be appropriate for the ship’s turning characteristics.
Waypoint legs are represented as thin dashed lines. The route plan is
represented as a thick long-dashed line.
There are three types of routes:
•
Internal Routes
- An internal route can be created and saved at a
single VisionMaster FT console, or it may have been created on
another ship’s VisionMaster FT system and copied using the file
Import/Export function.
•
External Routes
- These are routes created by and stored at an
external device, which can then be transmitted and distributed to all
nodes on a network for display and monitoring, see External Routes
•
Temporary Routes
- A temporary route is a route that starts at own
ship’s CCRP, and can be edited quickly on the chart display, see
Temporary Route. Temporary routes are intended for one-time
manoeuvres and deviations from pre-planned internal routes. On
ships installed with VisionMaster FT track control, temporarily routes
can also be used to steer the ship onto a planned internal route.
When a route has been imported or created all the details of the route can
be viewed and edited from the Edit Route sub menu. The saved internal
route can be monitored from the Monitor Route sub menu.
It is advisable that routes created by the operator should be
backed up to an external device (usually a USB memory stick).
This is done from the File Import/Export window.
30
A geographical Latitude/Longitude location on a route indicating a significant event on a
vessel’s planned route (for example, course alteration point, calling in point, etc.
31
The geographic location, represented by a line where rudder movement should be activated
to accomplish a planned turn. The wheelover (WO) line may be displayed perpendicular to
the approaching track or parallel to the departing track of each turn.
