Checking your route against chart alerts
Before you sail your route, you should always check your route against chart alerts. This is important because your
S57 charts and manual updates may contain chart viewing dates information. You can check chart alerts from the
Check page on the Plan Route menu. You can access this menu by placing the cursor on Route in the sidebar,
clicking the Plan button to show the Plan Route menu and clicking the Check tab.
The following information is stored with the route during route plan:
• Conditions for chart alerts during route monitoring, which includes safety contour and other chart alerts.
• Name of the user chart to be used during route monitoring together with this planned route.
• Name of the Notes to be used during route monitoring together with this planned route.
