11TRACKER 5100/5100i/5500/5500i Installation and Operation ManualNAVMAN2-7 NavigatingThe TRACKER has two ways of navigating, goingstraight to a point or following a route.Enter waypoints at points of interest before startingto navigate (see section 9-2-1).Tip: create a waypoint at the start of the trip tonavigate back to.Goto: Going straight to a pointThe TRACKER can navigate straight to a waypointor to any arbitrary point:1 In the chart display, move the cursor to thedestination point to navigate to (see section 3-1-1).2 Start navigating using the Goto function fromthe chart menu (see section 3-3).The chart, data and highway displays shownavigation data. The chart shows:The boat position .The destination point marked with a circle.The boat’s plotted course to thedestination.Two CDI lines, parallel to the boat’s plottedcourse (see appendix C, CDI).If the TRACKER is connected to an autopilot,the TRACKER will send data to the autopilot tosteer the boat to the destination.If the XTE alarm is enabled, an alarm willsound if the boat deviates too much from itsintended course (to set the XTE alarm, seesection 13-6).3 If the arrival radius alarm is enabled, then,when the boat comes within the arrival radiusof the destination, an alarm will sound to showthat the boat has reached the destination (toset the arrival radius alarm, see section 13-6).4 To stop the Goto, (see section 3-3).Following a routeA route is a list of waypoints that the boat can follow(see section 10).1 To create waypoints before creating the route,use the waypoints display (see section 9-2-1).2 To create a route, go to the chart or routesdisplay (see section 10-2-1).3 To start the route, see section (10-3-1).The chart, data and highway displays shownavigation data. The chart shows:The boat position .The waypoint at the end of the current legmarked with a circle.The boat’s plotted course along the leg.Two CDI lines, parallel to the boat’s plottedcourse (see appendix C, CDI).If the TRACKER is connected to an autopilot,the TRACKER will send data to the autopilot tosteer the boat to the destination.If the XTE alarm is enabled, an alarm willsound if the boat deviates too much from itsintended course (see section 13-6).If the arrival radius alarm is enabled, then,when the boat comes within the arrival radiusof the waypoint at the end of the current leg, analarm will sound (to set the arrival radiusalarm, see section 13-6).4 The TRACKER stops navigating to thewaypoint at the end of the current leg andstarts the next leg of the route:a When the boat comes within 0.025 nm ofthe waypoint.b Or when the boat passes the waypoint.c Or if the waypoint is skipped (see section10-3-2).5 When the boat has reached the final waypoint,or to stop the boat following the route at anytime, cancel the route (see section 10-3-3).
