Chapter 3: Working with Waypoints

3.1 Introduction

Waypoints are a core feature of the A60 display. They can be created in the Chart or Fishfinder application and used by each application. Waypoints can be stored in the system, archived to a CompactFlash card or sent to or received from another NMEA compatible instrument. To make full use of waypoint features, ensure your display is receiving heading and position data. This chapter gives details of how to place, edit, manage and navigate to a waypoint using the dedicated WPTS/MOB key. A waypoint is a position marked on a chart or fishfinder window to indicate a site (for fishing, diving etc.) or as a place to navigate to. Waypoints are represented on chart screen by a symbol. If necessary, you can change this symbol from the default (X) to a more appropriate one.
Example Waypoints shown with symbol and name

5. If needed, use the soft keys to select additional editing options.
81295.book Page 61 Wednesday, December 20, 2006 2:48 PM
6. Continue in this manner until the entire Name field is complete. You can use up to 16 characters, including spaces. 7. Press the ENTER key to save the change. The new name appears in the Edit Waypoint box.
Symbol. My Spot Name. Latitude. N 2616.496. Longitude. W 08003.907. Comment.
8. Repeat these steps to edit the other details: Latitude, Longitude and Comment, pressing the soft key to select the associated field you wish to change. 9. When complete, press CANCEL to return to the Waypoint List and select another waypoint or else press CANCEL a second time to clear all boxes. Notes: (1) To exit a field without saving, press CANCEL. (2) If you try to enter a waypoint name that is already in use, a pop-up appears, displaying the error message NAME EXISTS. (3) The comment field contains up to 32 characters.

Moving a Waypoint

You can move any waypoint to a new position. If, however, you are navigating to a waypoint and you wish it to be moved, you will need to stop navigation (press STOP GOTO or STOP FOLLOW). There are two methods of moving a waypoint:
. by entering new coordinates
If you know the new coordinates for the particular waypoint, you can enter this information by editing the waypoints Latitude and Longitude, as described in the preceding section, Changing the Waypoint Details.

D9821-1

81295.book Page 62 Wednesday, December 20, 2006 2:48 PM
. by dragging the waypoint to a new position
You can drag a waypoint to a new position using the cursor and trackpad: 1. Place the cursor over the waypoint that you want to move. The Waypoint soft keys appear. 2. Press MOVE WAYPOINT. Note: If you place the cursor over a waypoint to which you are currently navigating (the active waypoint), the STOP GOTO soft key (or STOP FOLLOW if the waypoint is part of a route) appears. You must stop the goto before moving the waypoint. 3. Move the cursor to the new location. 4. Press PLACE WAYPOINT to move the waypoint to the new location or CANCEL to abandon the move. CAUTION: Moving a Waypoint used in a Route It is possible to move waypoints that are used in routes. In such instances, the stored route will include the Waypoint in its new position. Ensure that this does not present a navigation hazard.

Erasing a Waypoint

You can erase any waypoint on the system using the cursor or the waypoint list except for the waypoint that you are currently navigating to (see Navigating to a Specific Point on page 73). If you attempt to delete any waypoint used in a route, a warning message is displayed that this is the case. You can override the warning and delete the waypoint anyway by pressing ENTER when prompted. After the waypoint is removed, the route will automatically join the two waypoints on either side of the waypoint you just deleted. This occurs in all routes that contained the newly deleted waypoint. To erase a waypoint:
81295.book Page 63 Wednesday, December 20, 2006 2:48 PM
1. Move the cursor over the waypoint that you want to erase. The Waypoint soft keys appear. 2. Press ERASE WAYPOINT. 3. You will then be asked to confirm this. If the waypoint is part of a route, a warning message also appears. Press ENTER to accept, or CANCEL to quit without saving. Note: If you place the cursor over a waypoint to which you are currently navigating (the active waypoint), the STOP GOTO soft key (or STOP FOLLOW if the waypoint is part of a route) appears. You must stop the goto before removing the waypoint.
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Press WPTS/MOB. Press the REV & EDIT WAYPOINTS soft key. The Waypoint List appears. Select the desired waypoint in the Waypoint List. Press the ERASE WAYPOINT soft key. You will then be asked to confirm the action. If the waypoint is part of a route, a warning message also appears. Press ENTER to accept, or CANCEL to quit without saving. Note: If this is the waypoint to which you are currently navigating (the active waypoint), a warning message appears. You must stop the goto before erasing the waypoint.
CAUTION: Erasing a Waypoint used in a Route It is possible to erase waypoints that are used in routes. In such instances, the stored route will join the two waypoints on either side of the waypoint just erased. Ensure that this altered route does not present a navigation hazard.
3.6 Controlling How Waypoints are Displayed
When you have placed many waypoints on your system, it may become difficult to easily interpret chart information. This is particularly the case if you have many waypoints in a small area. To designate whether all waypoints or their names are displayed: 1. Press PRESENT. from the main chart screen. 2. Press the SHOW/HIDE WAYPOINTS soft key.

4.2 Man Overboard (MOB)

If you lose a person or object overboard, and need to return to the location, you should use the Man Overboard (MOB) function immediately. The MOB function can be used while any application is in use and is activated by pressing the WPTS/MOB key for three seconds. When a MOB message is activated the following is initiated automatically: A MOB waypoint is placed at your current position on the chart screen. The page splits to display the CDI screen, also marked with the MOB position The MOB alarm is triggered and repeated every 30 seconds Navigation to any active waypoint is suspended and any existing navigation function is cancelled. No further GOTO or route functions are selectable. As your vessel moves away from the MOB position, a dotted line is displayed from your current position to the MOB position. Note: To obtain a MOB position, you need position data from the GPS. You can clear a MOB and its data by pressing and holding the WPTS/MOB key. Once cleared, the chart application returns to its state prior to the MOB alarm and the GOTO and route functions are again available.
81295.book Page 67 Wednesday, December 20, 2006 2:48 PM

4.3 What is Displayed

The chartplotter has a built in world map. Most areas are displayed at a scale of 72 nm from the top to the bottom of the screen and can be overzoomed as desired.

Electronic Charts

To use the chartplotter as a navigation aid, you need chart cards containing detailed information for the area you wish to navigate. These cards are available from Navionics. See Chapter 1: Using the Display. For full information on installing and removing chart cards refer to Chapter 2: General Operation and System Setup. You can remove and insert cards while a chart is displayed. The chart information is retained on-screen until the chartplotter redraws the screen, such as when you pan outside the current area or use the RANGE key to change the chart scale. The amount of detail shown varies for different areas and for different scales. The chart scale in use is indicated in the status bar; the number represents the distance in nautical miles from the top of the chart window to the bottom of the chart window.
Chart Orientation and Relative Motion
You can change the way the chart is drawn in relation to your boats position by changing the orientation and Relative Motion mode. The orientation of the chart refers to the relationship between the chart and the direction that you are travelling in. Your system is set to move the ships heading marker as the heading changes (North-Up). This can be changed to Course-Up or Head-Up if so desired. The Relative Motion mode controls the chart-to-boat movement. Relative Motion is set when your boats position is fixed and the chart moves across the screen. This can be changed so that your boat moves and the chart is fixed. The latter mode is called true motion. See Setting the Chart Orientation on page 96 and Relative Motion on page 97 for more detailed information.

D9870-1

ORIENTATION N-U C-U H-U
The orientation of a chart refers to the relationship between the chart and the direction that you are travelling in. It is used in conjunction with Relative Motion mode (see page 97) to control how your boat and chart relate to one another and how they are displayed on screen. The current chart orientation mode is indicated in the Status Bar (see page 24). The mode that you choose is restored at power up and consists of the following:

North Up (N-UP)

In North Up mode, the chart orientation is fixed with true north upwards. As your heading changes the boat symbol moves accordingly. This is the default mode for the chart application. When this setting is selected, the indicator North-Up or NUP appears in the Status Bar in white text.

Head Up (H-UP)

Head Up mode displays the chart with your boats current compass heading upwards. This setting requires heading data from an optional compass. As the heading changes the boat symbol remains fixed and the chart picture rotates accordingly. As long as heading data is received, the indicator Head-Up or H-UP appears in the Status Bar in white text. If heading data is lost, the indicator changes to (Head-Up) or (H-UP) in amber text.
81295.book Page 97 Wednesday, December 20, 2006 2:48 PM

Course Up (C-UP)

In Course Up mode, the chart picture is stabilized and shown with your current course over ground (COG) upwards. As your boats COG changes, the ship symbol moves accordingly. If you select a new course, the picture will reset to display the new course upwards. As long as course data is received, the indicator Course-Up or C-UP appears in the Status Bar in white text. If course data is lost, the indicator changes to (Course-Up) or (C-UP) in amber text.

Appendix:

Term C F Active Leg amp Auto Bearing

Glossary

Meaning Degrees Centigrade Degrees Farenheit In a route, the segment you are currently traveling. Amperes Automatic The compass direction from your position to a waypoint, measured to the nearest degree. The bearing is expressed either as a true bearing as shown on the chart or as a bearing relative to the heading of the boat.
Bearing from Vessel to When following a waypoint, this is a blue dashed line that is drawn Destination (BVD) between your current position and the waypoint as the boats actual course varies from the original. Unlike the BOD, BVD line is updated as the boat approaches the waypoint. Bearing from Origin to When following a waypoint, this is a dashed line that is drawn Destination (BOD) between the vessels original position and the waypoint. Unlike the BVD, the BOD line remains unchanged as the boat moves. Boat Speed Also known as paddlewheel speed, this represents the speed of your boat through the water as measured by a paddlewheel impeller, such as the one in a fishfinder transducer. This measurement differs from Speed over Ground (SOG), as it does not take into account current, wind or other sea conditions that may impede forward progress.
