WAYPOINTS
on the
Time of arrival
As you travel, the 961 updates all the information you need to
safely and efficiently plan your trip. For each past waypoint,
the 961 displays your actual time of arrival; for the active and
future waypoints, the 961 displays the ETA based on your cur-
rent distance and SOG. The ARRIVAL field is empty if your
present position is unknown; if your SOG is currently zero; if
arrival time is more than 99 days in the future; or if for a
future trip point you try to display distance and bearing
between points.
Remember that ETA is only an estimate because your SOG
may change—either intentionally or due to varying currents.
On the CHART screen, past legs of the trip are displayed in yel-
low; future trip legs are displayed in light blue; and the current
track to the active waypoint is displayed in green. You have
the option of turning off the display of past trip legs on the
CHART screen. For details, see "Changing the chart setup"
starting on page 13-23.
At the TRIP screen, you can change the trip in the following
ways:
•
go directly to a new active waypoint (removing any old
active and future points)
•
add a new waypoint (inserting one or adding it to the end)
•
go directly to a future waypoint of the trip (skipping over
and removing intermediate points)
•
join a leg to a future waypoint (skipping over and remov-
ing intermediate points)
