MPORTANT To be activated, the route has to be geometrically correct.
This means that regarding the length of the leg and the turning radius (by default the turning
radius is defined in Options/Route/Default turning radius) the turn should displayed (valid)
for all Way Points (except for the first and the last)
Acceptable range for Turning Radius can be modified in Console Autopilot, TCS options,
Maximum radius, Minimum radius can be adjusted ().
Rate of Turn (ROT) can be also changed manually in Route planning.

OUTE CHECKING IN
When activated the route is automatically checked against the dangers of the ENC database
including manually updated objects and user defined dangers. If any leg is dangerous, the
dangers are listed in the Route Checking window and highlighted on the chart.

OUTE MONITORING
When a route is activated, route monitoring is automatically switched on. The ECDIS900
continuously calculates and displays
selected waypoint and on request the calculated speed to sail to reach a particular waypoint at
the fixed ETA.
The ECDIS triggers alarms
IMPORTANT
The Wheel over Point (WOP) is calculated according to the turning radius value entered
by the navigator. It is extremely important to enter this value during route planning.
Manual selection of the active waypoint is possible by right/clicking over the chosen
waypoint on the chart or highlighting the waypoint in the route monitoring plan.
This data is displayed on the Route Monitoring console. To set it visible tick on it in the list in
