Resetting cross track error (XTE)
When you are following a waypoint, you can restart the XTE. This results in a new
course from the current vessel position to the current target waypoint.
Restarting XTE is useful if you find yourself off track and want to go straight to your
target, rather than get back onto the original track.
Arriving at your target waypoint
When you arrive at the target (active) waypoint:
• An alarm sounds and
• A warning message is displayed.
