Route building
A route can consist of a combination of:
• New waypoints which you place on the screen as required and/or
• existing waypoints selected from a list displayed on screen.
Note: A route can also be created from a track.
As each waypoint is added, it is assigned an index number
corresponding to its position in the route and drawn on the chart
using the currently specified symbol. The following should be noted:
• When a route is being built it is not active and does not affect
any current navigation.
• You cannot save a new route if any of the waypoints within it are
currently active.
