Use Autorouting during route creation
Whilst building a route you can use Autorouting to automatically add a route
leg to a route you have already started to create. The Autorouting features
require compatible cartography.
1. Press and hold anywhere on screen and select either
[Autoroute to wpt]
or
[Autoroute to here]
.
Selecting [Autoroute to wpt] will allow you to select a waypoint from your
Waypoints list to include in your route, selecting [Autoroute to here] will
create a route leg to the cursor’s current position.
Once an Autoroute leg has been added you can select
[Finish route build]
or
add further manual or autoroute route legs.
Autorouting
Autorouting is available when using compatible cartography. Autorouting
allows you to build a route automatically between a point on the chart and
your vessel.
Selecting
[Autoroute to here]
from the chart context menu, or selecting
[Autoroute to]
from an existing waypoint’s context menu will create a route
automatically between your vessel and the chosen point.
The created route is generated by comparing data available on your
cartography against the minimum safe distances specified in the
[Boat
details]
menu: (
[Homescreen > Settings > Boat details]
).
Waypoints will not be placed in areas that conflict with your specified
minimum safe distances. Caution symbols are used for waypoints that are
near objects or restricted areas.
Never follow a route before checking each route leg is safe for your vessel.
Caution: Easy Routing - Dredged areas
The C-MAP
®
Easy Routing feature will ignore some hazards in
dredged areas. Easy Routing is intended for passage planning
between harbors rather than within a harbor.
Warning: Traffic separation
Automatic route generation features do not adhere to the
Traffic Separation Schemes identified in Rule 10 of the
International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea
1972
as amended.
Raymarine® therefore recommends that you do NOT use
Automatic route generation to create any part of a route
which will cross traffic lanes or pass near to traffic separation
lines. In these situations Automatic route generation MUST
be switched Off and the route or route leg MUST be built
manually, ensuring compliance to the rules laid out in the
above regulations.
