Routes may be planned independent of the actual vessel
position. The routes may be stored and recalled whenever
necessary. There are no limitations to number of waypoints in a
route that can be stored in the system.
Route planning is performed as described in page 81 onwards. A
simplified route planning may also be done using the quick
route function. Refer page 94.
The SOLAS convention requires that all charts must be updated
for intended voyages. Before planning a new route or prior to
updating an existing voyage, it is required to receive the latest
chart updates.
For automatic or manual updating of the chart, refer Official
chart updates, page 106 onwards.
In the CS66 system, routes are planned in a separate Route
Editor window. This window is activated when a new route is
created, or when an existing route is modified.
This window will be displayed as an overlay on the chart. The
display layout and the scale is setup as for the graphic area, but
independent of this setup.
The window may be minimized, resized and moved.
