5.5 Following Routes and Going to Points

The default soft key GOTO accesses the functions to FOLLOW a route and GOTO
a waypoint or cursor. When you select the target destination, the chartplotter
calculates bearing, distance and cross track error; this information is passed to
a helmsman or autopilot. You can also restart the cross track error (XTE) from
the actual vessel position to set XTE to zero at that point.
When the chartplotter is following a route, the target destination is indicated
by a square around the waypoint (or cursor marker) and a dotted line shows the
intended track, from your start point or previous waypoint, to the target
waypoint.
This section describes the following:
• Follow a route either forwards, or in reverse order.
• Target Point Arrival
• Other follow route options, including joining at a selected waypoint,
advancing waypoints, and restarting XTE.
• Go to an individual point, either an existing waypoint or the cursor.
• Stop and Restart Follow/Goto.
An alarm is triggered when you approach a waypoint, this section describes
what happens when you arrive at waypoints. Chapter 6 describes how to set
the alarm.
The chartplotter can also display the vessel's actual track and the track can be
recorded for later display. The Track function is described in the Section 5.7.
