RC435 and RC435i Chartplotters
If a route is not selected, the ROUTE field displays NO ROUTE.
The WAYPOINT field shows the name of the waypoint. If the waypoint is
part of a route then the title field includes the waypoint index in the route.
If there is no target waypoint the text indicates NO WAYPOINT and all
waypoint data is shown as dashes, one per character. If a route is being
followed and the waypoint is not named, the text shows the waypoint
number within the route (as displayed on screen). If a GOTO Cursor or
Port
Port is in progress, the text indicates GOTO CURSOR or GOTO <
Name
>.
BRG, RNG and XTE data relate to the target waypoint.
Time refers to time data which is acquired from GPS information. Any
local time offset is set in the System Set Up menu, see Chapter 4.
The Time To Go (TTG) and Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) data relate
to the target waypoint (not the whole route) and are based on the Speed
Over Ground (SOG) towards the target. If the VMG is negative, or data is
not available, these fields are replaced by dashes, one per character.
The steering instruction is STEER STARBOARD if the XTE is 0.01nm or
more to port, STEER PORT if the XTE is 0.01nm or more to starboard or ON
COURSE if XTE is less than 0.01 on either side.
If no GoTo or Follow is in progress, the steering instruction is NOT
TRACKING, no steering arrows are shown, but the rhumb line indicator is
shown.
The graphical XTE indication places arrows either side of the rhumb line
indicator and pointing towards it, dependent on the value of XTE. The
first arrow is shown when the XTE reaches 0.01nm, the second at.05nm
and subsequently at 0.1nm intervals.
Note: The steering instruction and graphical XTE indication are repeat-
ed on all text-only displays.

Navigation Data

The Navigation Data display comprises text data occupying the whole
screen:
Textual data provides Position, SOG, COG, Bearing and Range to
waypoint, Time, Fix status and the XTE indicator. Any unavailable data
is replaced by dashes, one per character. When there is no GPS fix but
there is a value for the last fix, this is shown instead; POSITION is replaced
with LAST POSITION.
The (c) indicator only appears when the position has been user calibrated.
