11. How to Monitor Routes 

You can monitor the route from the two Plan Speed windows in the information area.  

 

•  Plan Speed: Planned speed to approach "To WPT". 
•  Plan: Planned course between previous WPT and "To WPT". Note that if 

the gyro value is compensated and Gyro error correction and Gyro error 
compensation have been enabled in Ship and Route parameters in the Initial 
Settings menu, then the text "(corr)" appears (in red) in the Plan field. 

•  Route: Calculated set course to follow the monitored route, including off 

track, drift and gyro error compensation. 

•  Ch LIM: Planned width of channel to approach "To WPT". 
•  Off track: Perpendicular distance of the ship from the track. 

Permanent alerts are available regardless of the steering mode used and these are 
as follows: 

•  "Outside channel" is indicated by showing "Off track" in orange and its 

value in red. 

•  To WPT: The waypoint that the ship is approaching. 
•  Dist WOP: Distance to the point where rudder order for course change at 

"To WPT" will be given. 

•  Time: Time remaining until WOP (dd:hh:mm:ss). 
•  Next WPT: The WPT following the "To WPT". 
•  Next: Planned course to steer after "To WPT". Note that if the gyro value is 

compensated and Gyro error correction and Gyro error compensation have 
been enabled in the Ship and Route parameters in the Initial Settings menu, 
then the text "(corr)" appears (in red) in the Plan field. 

•  Turn RAD: Planned turning radius at "To WPT". 
•  Turn rate: Calculated rate of turn, which is based on current speed and 

planned turning radius.
