Critical Points
The CPs tab folder enables the operator to create
specific Latitude/Longitude (L/L) positions on a
route which are defined as critical points.
An alarm or warning alert is generated when own
ship is in the proximity of each critical point on the
route (the alert can be triggered by either a
specified distance or time).
The CPs tab folder is divided into the following
areas:
Route
Critical Point
The Route area enables the currently monitored
route, displayed in the route name field, to be
saved and validated. For a description of the Save
and Error functions see
Critical Point
To generate critical points on a previously saved route open the route from
the Route tab of the Edit Route sub menu. The selected route will appear
on screen.
To create critical points on a route do the following:
1. Move the cursor to the position on the route where you want the
first critical point to be placed. As the cursor moves over the route
the letters ADD CRTP are displayed below the cross hair.
2. Click on the required position, a purple
square is drawn at that position on the route
and the window shows the abbreviation CP1
with its L/L co-ordinates. If the critical point
label tick box is enabled in the Route
Display Settings, the CP number is also
shown on screen.
