[. . . ] To create a route from the map display: 1. Press the ROUTES softkey to display the route list window. Use the K keypad to select an empty storage route (routes 1-19) and press the C key. You can create a route in the active route (Route 0) position, but you'll need to copy it to an empty storage route to save it, as it will be overwritten by the next route activation. The route list window will be replaced by the Map Page, with the target cursor appearing as an arrow pointer. To add waypoints to the route, use the K keypad to move the arrow cursor to the desired position and press the C key. HINT: Once the map display is in route creation mode, you can use the arrow cursor to `snap to' existing on-screen waypoints or navaids, or create new waypoint positions. Existing waypoint positions will be added to the route without confirmation. Whenever you are adding a new route waypoint not currently stored in memory, you'll be asked to save the new waypoint. Press C to confirm the `OK' prompt. Once you've entered all the desired route waypoints, press the EXIT softkey. The map display will now return to the map review mode, where you can review, activate, invert or modify the current on-screen route. The review mode will always appear when you have finished creating a new route on the map display or when you have selected an existing route for review from the route list window. 38 When the review mode is in use, the cursor may be used to highlight individual route legs. When a route leg is highlighted, the `active from' and `active to' waypoints will be displayed at the bottom of the data window, with the desired track (DTK) and distance (DIS) for the leg indicated below. The rest of the map review functions are performed through the map review softkeys at the bottom of the screen. To activate or invert the on-screen route: 1. To invert (activate in reverse order) the route, press the INVERT softkey. ROUTES Map Review Mode Activating & Deleting SECTION 8 Once a route has been activated or inverted, the destination field in the data window will display navigation information to the next `active to waypoint'. As you complete navigation of each route leg, this information will be updated to reflect the next `active to' waypoint in the route. When you reach the final destination waypoint in the active route, you'll need to cancel the active route to stop navigation to the last route waypoint. Also note that the Active Route, if not cancelled, will be automatically reactivated when the unit is powered up. To stop navigation of the active route: 1. Press the C key to confirm the delete route warning. Activated Routes appear as solid lines. To save a newly created or modified Active Route, copy Route 0 to an open storage route (Routes 1-19), as the Active Route will be overwritten by any new route activation. 39 SECTION 8 ROUTES Modifying Routes Moving Route Waypoints The next softkey in the route review mode allows you to modify a route by moving, inserting or removing route waypoints on screen or editing a route through a text review window. Select the route review mode for the desired route, as described on page 38. [. . . ] The LORAN system covers the entire United States and the U. S. From the perspective of a mariner, the system is used for ocean and coastal navigation. It can be used as a supplemental system for harbor and harbor approach navigation, and it is used for inland navigation by recreational vehicles.
