3.3.3Switching waypoint

When you arrive at a waypoint on a route while in the NAV mode, you can switch to the next waypoint automatically or manually. The AUTO setting will automatically switch to the next destination waypoint when your boat is within the arrival alarm area (set on the plotter). The MANUAL setting requires operator confirmation (pressing the course control knob) before switching to the next waypoint. When in MANUAL switching mode, the NAVpilot-500 will sound for five seconds an alarm when the vessel arrives at the destination waypoint.

AUTO: When your boat is within the arrival alarm area, the buzzer sounds for five seconds and the message “WPT WAS CHANGED” appears.

MANUAL: The message “WPT WAS CHANGED. PRESS ANY KEY.” appears when the vessel arrives at the destination waypoint.
