Deleting a Waypoint
Deleting a waypoint is also performed by positioning the cursor over the waypoint, as shown in the
above diagram. Press the Delete key to delete the waypoint.
Routes
Routes are a sequence of waypoints that are traversed in order. A route can consist of any number
of waypoints from a minimum of two to a maximum of 50. Routes can be started from any waypoint
within the route and can be traversed in either direction. Routes are a particularly powerful feature
when the GPS Chart400 is connected to an autopilot, allowing the vessel to be automatically guided
along the route.
Olympic course routes can also be created with the GPS Chart400. In an Olympic course route the
start and finish waypoint is the same waypoint.
NOTE: An Olympic route must consist of a minimum of three waypoints.
The Route key displayed in the Waypoint screen, one of the four main screens, enables access to
a wide range of functions. The GPS Chart400 will guide you through the process of creating and
controlling routes. The options available are dependant on the particular situation. For example, if a
route is active the GPS Chart400 will first give you the options of listing other routes saved in
memory or disabling the active route. Once the active route is disabled a range of editing functions
will become available. See the following sections. If a route was not active when you pressed the
Route key you will, again, have the option of listing all routes currently saved in memory or creating
a new route.
NOTE: You cannot include a Mark
in a route
