3.15.0.0Marks

Marks are individual points typically placed under the cursor position or by entering

their coordinates manually. Marks are identified by an icon and an alphanumeric label

(10 characters). Marks can be moved to different locations, can be deleted and their

label and icon can be changed.

In STANDARD HORIZON chart plotters Marks can be linked to Routes.

3.15.0.1Waypoints and Routes

Waypoints are points belonging to a Route. Waypoints are like Marks but they are

always linked to other Waypoints to build a Route.

Many chart plotters allow linking existing User Points (Marks or Events) to the Route.

The user can delete each Waypoint of the Route individually, delete the whole Route,

move Waypoints of the Route and insert new Waypoints between existing ones.

STANDARD HORIZON chart plotters allows storing Routes of 20 – 30 Waypoints

each.

3.15.0.2Destination point

The Destination point is the point to which the vessel is navigating. It can be placed

in any location on the map. If the cursor is on a Mark or a Waypoint in a Route the

Destination will be placed on the selected User Point.

If the Destination is not placed on any existing User Point the chart plotter creates a

“direct” Destination that will be deleted when the navigation to is stopped.

Route Following

Placing the Destination on a Waypoint allows Route following. The user can decide

the Route following direction.

When the Destination is reached, the chart plotter changes the Destination to the next

Waypoint on the Route.

3.15.0.3MOB

MOB is a special Event that identifies the Man Over Board. It is placed at the vessel’s

position. Normally when the MOB marker is placed the chart plotter stops navigation

to the selected Destination point (if present) and sets the MOB as new Destination.
