navigate mode
In Nav Mode, the Pilot can be used to steer to a
waypoint created by the
h1000 CND (Central
Navigation Display
) or from an external source
via NMEA.
With Nav Mode selected and the Pilot switched
OFF, steer the boat onto the Bearing to
Waypoint (BTW), ensure that the cross track
error is less than 0.1Nm, and allow the boat to
settle. Activate the Pilot in Nav Mode by
pressing the ON key once. When engaged in
Nav Mode, the Pilot will steer a course that
aims to keep the cross track error to a
minimum and will allow the boat to safely arrive
at the next waypoint.
automatic waypoint advance
Many position fixers will automatically switch to
the next waypoint in a sail plan. For reasons of
safety however, the
h1000 Pilot will not
automatically steer to the next waypoint until
instructed by the user. If the position fixer is
transmitting valid waypoint route information,
and automatically switches to the next waypoint
in a route, the Pilot will prompt the user with
the message Next Waypoint ?. When it is safe
to do so, press the ENTER key within four
seconds to instruct the Pilot to start navigating
to the next waypoint in the route.
