MOB Function
MOB FUNCTION
If one member of the crew should accidentally fall overboard,
the MOB (Man Overboard) function allows plotting the posi-
tion where the fall occurred, providing useful pieces of infor-
mation for the rescue.
To enable the MOB function, hold the GOTO key pressed longer.
The GEONAV will place a special marker on the current posi-
tion and show a window with the following data:
•
Geographical coordinates of the man overboard position
•
Time elapsed from the fall
•
Distance and bearing of the man overboard with respect to
the boat's subsequent positions
If the unit is connected to an autopilot, the transmission of
commands to the autopilot is stopped.
All the unit's functions are disabled as long as the MOB func-
tion is active. It will be only possible to zoom in / out the
chart.
To disable the MOB function and go back to the standard func-
tions, press EXIT.
