STEERING SCREEN
The steering screen shows a pictorial view of your boat and course
travelled. This is called a Course Deviation Indicator or
CDI. It also shows
Distance To Go (DTG), Speed
Over Ground (SOG), Bearing to
Waypoint
(BRG),
and Course OverGround
(COG). Pressthe STEER keytoviewthis
screen.
Yourpresent position
is shown
bythe
arrow. The arrowshows the direction
the boat is heading relative to ________________________________
the waypoint. In theory, if you _______
steer the boat with the arrow _____ _______
always pointing towards the
waypoint, then
you
will arrive at ___________________________
the waypoint. The solid line ____________________________
extendingfromthe arrow
isyour ______________ _____________
track or path you've
taken. To
travel
directly
to
awaypoint, try ____________________________
to
keep the arrow on the center
line. The waypoint is depicted
by a box at the top
of the CDI ___________________________
display. As youapproach the
waypoint, the arrow andthe boxwill move
closertogether. If
you
travel
past
the
waypoint, the waypoint's box will move to the bottom of the display.
The numbers on the
top left side of the screen are distance markers,
showing the
remaining distance to the recalled waypoint. If the numbers
have a black box
surrounding them, then the distance markers is
showing
the distance
FAST the waypoint. In other
words, if the numbers are
surrounded by
a black
box,
then
you
have
passed the
waypoint and need
to turn around.
The numbers immediately below the CDI are the CDI range in miles. This
gives you an idea of how far off course you are. For
example, if the arrow
is halfway
between the course line and the outside left line and the CDI
range is 0.5
miles, then
your
cross track error is to the
left 0.25 miles. The
CDI
range is the same as the CDI alarm setting. See the
section on GFS
alarms to change the CDI range.
Using the
digital displays at the bottom of the screen with the graphical

You must select waypoints in the order
they

other
words, suppose you
want a route that consists of
waypoint numbers
1, 3, and 5. However,
you wish to travel to 3 first,
then 1, and finally 5. In
this
case, you must select waypoint 3, 1, and 5 in that order when making
the route.
