9.6.0 Route Checking
The Route Check function is used after you have created a Route to ensure you and your
vessel will not have problems while navigating. This is done by the CPF180i and CPF300i
by reviewing the Route and looking for the following hazards that may effect safe navigation.
· Land Areas
· Shallow Water
· Intertidal Areas
· Rocks
· Wrecks
· Obstructions
· Shoreline Constructions
· Fishing Facility
· Dredged Areas
· Diffusers
· Mooring/Warping Facility
· Production Installation
· Pingos
· No Data Available
If any of these alarm conditions is detected, the function returns the list of dangerous objects
and the relative dangerous Route leg, that is drawn with a different color.
To activate this function:
AUTOMATIC CHECK Turns the Route Checking feature On or Off. Turn the Automatic Route Check on after
you have created a new Route, or if you inserted a new Waypoint, deleted, moved or
edited any Waypoint in a saved Route to confirm the Route can be safely navigated.

the CPF180i or CPF300i will check to confirm navigation threats. The default for this
