Man Over Board
The MOB position, date and time are stored in the next vacant waypoint
memory of the Waypoint Bank for future reference (e.g. log book en-
tries). An MOB symbol is used to denote an MOB waypoint.
Note: The range and bearing in the PLOT, NAV,
and MOB screens all reflect your bearing
and range back to the MOB position, not
the active route, until the MOB is canceled.
NMEA 0183 sentences (i.e. BWC and BWR) and the printer output are
changed to reflect the current crisis situation by also indicating the
bearing and range back to the MOB position (until the MOB is can-
celed). This way, other interfaced equipment can also help guide you
back to the MOB position. When the MOB condition is canceled, the
NMEA sentences will automatically revert to the active route informa-
tion.
Don’t forget to cancel the MOB so your interfaced equipment
will read the correct data!
The MOB function key and remote MOB input are disabled from sub-
sequent activation until
Cancel MOB
is selected.
Other functions such as
Position
and
Navigate
can still be accessed;
however, the screen will revert to the MOB Plot screen after 30 sec-
onds.
