Man Over Board
The Man Over Board function key is located at the bottom right hand
corner of the CDU. When depressed for a few seconds, it activates a
number ofautomatic functions described below. You can also active it
by pressing Eand selecting the Activate MOB softkey.
Most obviously, it brings up an MOBl (Plot) screen. This is an auto-
matic scaling screen. The screen centers on halfthe distance between
your present position and the MOB position. In addition, the MOB
position is displayed in the upper left corner, so that you can quickly
read the coordinates toothers who may be available to render assis-
tance. This plot screen also provides the vital bearing and distance
back to the MOB position, as well as your present course over ground.
The MOB position, date and time are stored in the next vacantwaypoint
memory ofthe Waypoint Bank for future reference (e.g. log book en-
tries). An MOB symbol is used to denote an MOB waypoint.
