Waypoint

A particular location is known as a "waypoint", whether it be a starting point, a desti-
nation point or an intermediate point on a voyage. This radar system can store 100
waypoints. Waypoints 1 to 98 are user set waypoints, waypoint 99 is reserved for ex-
ternal input, waypoint 100 is reserved for MOB (Man Over Board). Waypoints can be
entered with the cursor, or from the menu (manual input of latitude and longitude).
Waypoints 1 to 98 can be edited from the menu.
