3.6 Transferring Waypoints and Routes
Displayed SeaTalk Waypoints
In an integrated system, when a route is made current on any SeaTalk
equipment it is sent to all other SeaTalk equipment. This route will
override any other current route. When GOTO waypoint or GOTO cursor is
in operation it is considered a route.
The current route can be edited on any equipment with route edit
capability.
Note: Waypoints transferred as part of a route are not automatically
saved by the unit; however you can save the route locally, thus adding the
waypoints to the local Waypoint List.
Transferring Database Lists
Database lists can be transferred between units by various means. The
method you choose will depend on the links available (SeaTalk or
NMEA) and whether you want to transfer individual waypoints or the
complete Waypoint and Route List:
You can receive waypoints that are transmitted by other equipment on
SeaTalk or NMEA.
When this option is selected, any waypoints received on SeaTalk or
NMEA are transferred and appended, one-by-one, to the Waypoint
List. Routes received on NMEA are appended to the Route List.You
can use this function to add waypoints from a PC connected via
NMEA.
You can send the Waypoint and Route Lists from the display unit to
other instruments via NMEA using the SEND WPT LIST function.
Sending the Waypoint List does not affect current routes. The
NMEA link could be to a PC.
Receiving Waypoints from Other Equipment
To receive incoming waypoints on SeaTalk or NMEA:
1. Display the Waypoint List by pressing MARK followed by the WAY-
POINT LIST soft key.
Press the WAYPOINT TRANSFER soft key.
2. Press the soft key RECEIVE WPTS FROM ST/NMEA; the soft key
changes to STOP RECEIVING WAYPOINTS.
When waypoints are transmitted by other equipment they are added
to the Waypoint List on the display unit. Routes transmitted on
NMEA are appended to the Route List.
