5.1 Entering Waypoints

In navigation terminology, a waypoint is a particular location on a voyage whether it be a starting, intermediate or destination point. A waypoint is the simplest piece of information your equipment requires to get you to a destination, in the shortest distance possible.

This unit has 835 waypoints (including quick waypoints) into which you can enter position information. There are five methods by which you can enter a waypoint: at own ship's position, at MOB position, by cursor, by range and bearing, and through the waypoint list (manual input of latitude and longitude).

Entering waypoints at own ship's position

You can save your current position as a waypoint. Press the [SAVE/MOB] key with a touch-and-release action to store your position. This new waypoint will automatically be saved in the waypoint list under the next consecutive waypoint number.

WAYPOINT SW

Provides automatic or manual waypoint switching when following a route. For further details, see page 7-4. The default setting is AUTO2.

COURSE VECTOR

You may extend a line from the own ship position to show ship's course. The line can be a vector (the length depends on the ship's speed.) or a line (course bar). The default setting is LINE.

BEARING

A navigation device outputs both true and magnetic bearings. A magnetic bearing is true bearing plus (or minus) earth's magnetic deviation. Thus the equation for finding magnetic bearing is;

true bearing ± x (magnetic variation) ^ = magnetic bearing

You can display your ship's course and bearing to waypoint in true or magnetic bearing, and the default setting is magnetic.

MAG VARIATION

The magnetic variations for all areas of the earth are preprogrammed into this unit. The preprogrammed variation is accurate for most instances, however you may wish to manually enter a variation.

2. Press the soft key ENTER or the [ENTER] key to register your selection.

POS SMOOTHING

When the DOP or receiving condition is unfavorable, the GPS fix may change greatly, even if the vessel is dead in water. This change can be reduced by smoothing the raw GPS fixes. A setting between 000 to 999 is available. The higher setting the more smoothed the raw data, however too high a setting shows response time to change in latitude and longitude. This is especially noticeable at high ship's speeds. 000 is the normal setting; increase the setting if the GPS fix changes greatly.

SPD/CSE SMOOTHING

During position fixing, ship's velocity (speed and course) is directly measured by receiving GPS satellite signals. The raw velocity data may change randomly depending on receiving conditions and other factors. You can reduce this random variation by increasing the smoothing. Like with latitude and longitude smoothing, the higher the speed and course smoothing the more smoothed the raw data. If the setting is too high, however, the response to speed and course change slows. For no smoothing, enter all zeroes. The default setting is 5 (sec).

GPS SPEED AVE

Calculation of ETA is based on average ship's speed over a given period. If the period is too long or too short calculation error will result. Change this setting if calculation error occurs. The default setting is 60 seconds, which is suitable for most conditions.

LAT OFFSET, LON OFFSET

GPS generated position may be off by some seconds due to GPS signal variation. You may apply an offset to GPS position to refine position accuracy.

DISABLE SATELLITE

Every GPS satellite is broadcasting abnormal satellite number(s) in it's Almanac, which contains general orbital data about all GPS satellites, including those which are malfunctioning. Using this information, the GPS receiver automatically eliminates any malfunctioning satellite from the GPS satellite schedule. However, the Almanac sometimes may not contain this information. If you hear about a malfunctioning satellite from another source, you can disable it manually. Enter satellite number (max. 3 satellites) in two digits and press the soft key ENTER or the [ENTER] key.

LATITUDE, LONGITUDE

The default latitude and longitude position is San Francisco, USA (38.00.00'N, 123.00.000'W). When the unit is turned on first the first time it begins searching for its actual position. To lessen the time required to find position, you may enter your position manually. To switch from North to South and vice versa, use the soft key N<-->S, and to switch from West to East and vice versa, use the soft key W<-->E. Finally, press the soft key ENTER or the [ENTER] key.

ANT. HEIGHT

Enter the height of the antenna unit above sea surface. For further details refer to the installation manual. The default setting is 5 m.

FIX MODE

You can choose the position-fixing mode from 2D or 2D/3D. 2D requires three satellites to fix position; 2D/3D requires three or four satellites, whichever is available. The default setting is 2D/3D.
