Maestro Navigator 3.5.3.doc
66
If you’re not presently underway, but you would like to create some routes for future use
or for planning purposes:
Touch
Go To, New Route
.
Touch the Chart to set down your Waypoints.
Assign a unique name to the route, touch
Route, Rename Active Route
. This helps
you find the route later when you select it from the stored routes list.
When you have finished creating Waypoints and have named the new Route, touch the
Route
button and choose
Deactivate Route
.
Every Route that you create is automatically stored for future reference and designated
as the active Route. Deactivating the route tells Maestro Navigator that you don’t want
to follow the Route right now.
Abandoning a Route
When you reach the last Waypoint in your route, the Route is deactivated and removed
from view. Any route-related data windows (like the Waypoint pointer, cross-track error,
time to Waypoint, etc.) are cleared, since that data is no longer necessary or relevant.
However, if you decide to stop following a route before you reach its final Waypoint, you
need to “tell” Maestro Navigator. To do this, touch
Route, Deactivate Route
.
Otherwise, Maestro Navigator will continue to provide data designed to keep you on
course for the next Waypoint, since the program won’t “know” that you have abandoned
the route. This can be confusing (not to mention annoying), so be sure to deactivate
your route if your plans change before the route is completed.
Go To
The
Go To Menu
provides options used for plotting new routes based on the vessel's
current location. This option is only available when there is no active route.
