3.9 Defining the System Track and the Next Waypoint; System Track Display
The track along which the ship is to sail can be defined as the System Track and, as a result, can be
highlighted in colour (red instead of orange).
☞ For the connected CHARTPILOT, the System Track has much greater importance: all currently valid
track data that are displayed there (e.g. planning data, track deviations, track-related alarms) refer
to the System Track. For details, see the Operating Instructions of the CHARTPILOT.
While the ship is approaching the System Track or is sailing along it, it is possible to explicitly define
which waypoint of the System Track is to be approached directly. The route to that place is displayed
additionally in the same way as the System Track.
☞ The defining of the System Track and of the Next Waypoint is applicable for all items of equipment
in the system.
Defining the System Track
The track that is to be defined as the System Track must
already be selected for the display.
1. Click on the TRACK button and then on the SET button
situated under SYSTEM TRACK. As a result, the list of
displayed tracks appears. If a System Track has already
been defined, it is marked here.
2. By clicking, mark the track that is to become the (new)
System Track, and click on the SET button.
marked track is now the System Track. Its data appear in
the System Track display at the bottom of the side strip.
The System Track Display
The System Track display contains the number and name of
the system track and the numbers and names of the waypoint
passed last (FROM WPT) and of the currently valid waypoint
(TO WPT).
