8.2.13.3 Activating Track Control
Track Control is not an ECDIS function. To activate this function an
AUTOPILOT System has to be connected.
For detailed information ask Raytheon Anschütz.
When you open the Steer to Track dialog box after creating or opening a route,
ECDIS automatically selects the first valid waypoint in the route as the active
waypoint. If you want to navigate to a different waypoint, you can do so by using
the arrow keys. When you select the new waypoint, ECDIS checks to make sure
it is a valid course line, then it circles the waypoint, redraws the course line, and
updates the Information Panel. If it is not a valid course line, then ECDIS grays
the dialog box, except the Select Active Waypoint arrow buttons, until a valid
waypoint is selected.
Selecting an active waypoint is very useful when you are navigating a long route.
For example, suppose you are navigating a route from Seattle to Pusan and
decide to stop in Prince Rupert. When you are ready to continue on to Pusan,
open your route again, and then using the Track Control command, you can
reassign the active waypoint and continue on the route.
Procedure: (see Figure: 1−31)
Step 1 Select Track Control from the Routes menu.
Step 2 Move the cursor over the waypoint to which you want to navigate and
Step 3 Select Text Point: Go to Waypoint.
Step 4 Click on OK. Track Control is activated
