How to activate automatic route steering

Route steering can be activated by pushing the GOTO WAYPOINT or GOTO TRACK button on the Trackpilot
panel. The lamp of the pushed button will start to flash and if the ECDIS accepts the requested route steering mode,
the lamp will then light to indicate the used route steering mode.
Go to WP
If a Go to WP is activated, the indication "Goto WP" appears in
the route monitor window.
If the planned course to approach a "To WP" is defined using
Great Circle, the indication "Goto WP Great circle" appears in
the route monitor window.
Go to Track
If Go to Track is activated, the indication "Goto Track" appears
in the route monitor window.
If the planned course to approach a "To WP" is defined using
Great Circle, the indication "Track Great circle" appears in the
route monitor window.
When route steering is not used or if the ECDIS did not accept
the requested route steering mode, there is no indication of
route steering in the route monitor window, as shown right.
