This screen shows all navigation information to a waypoint in digital
numbers. To
display this screen, press the MENU key
while the Z-9500
is in the loran mode. Now
press the
key adjacent
to the "Nay. Display"
label. The
following screen appears.

Water depth (Depth) shows at the top of the screen. The route
name,
waypoint number, and waypoint position are shown on the left side of
the screen beneath the
depth display. Your
present position
is shown to
the
right of the
waypoint information boxes. Heading, Cross Track Error
(XTE), Time To Go (TTG), Bearing
to waypoint (BAG), Ground Speed
(SPD), and Velocity Made Good (VMG) show on the lower half of the
display.
Heading is the direction you are travelling. Cross track error (XTE) is
the distance to the left or
right
of your
course. Time to
go (TTG) is the
time it will take
you
to reach the
waypoint, based on your current speed.
Bearing to
waypoint (BAG) is the direction you must travel to reach your
waypoint. Ground
Speed (SPD) is the
averaged speed
over
ground
that
you are making. For
example, if you are
travelling directly against a two
knot current and your boat speedometer reads 10 knots,
your actually
speed over gnund is eight
knots. The SPD display
is calculated from
loran data. It doesn't use the optional speed
sensor to determine boat
speed. Velocity made good (VMG) is the speed you are making to-
wards a
waypoint. For example, if
you
are
travelling
at ten knots
directly
at a waypoint and there's no current or
wind,
then you VMG is ten knots.
If
you are moving 180
degrees away
from the waypoint,
then your VMG
is -10 knots.

Since using
the "Change GAl" feature puts
the Z-9500 into the manual
mode,
you have to select the stations used in the chain. Arrows with the
station letters appear
on this screen. To select a station, simply press
the key next to the desired station's letter. The stations you select
appear
near the
top of the screen. In
the above
example, stations M, V.
and Z were selected. When you're finished, press
the
key next to the
"ENTEA" label. If
you simply press the CLEAA key, the Z-9500 returns
to the screen at the top
of page 62. The Z-9500
automatically switches
to the
position
screen as shown below. Once it locks on to the
stations,
it should show the
proper latitude/longitude on the position display
after
a short time. To view the station's signal strength and other data, see
the "Position
Display"
section on page 70.
