Draw directly the route on the chart (creating QuickWaypoints) :
1. Select the Route Tool and move the cursor to the starting point
2. Click directly on the chart. A blue square (QuickWaypoint) is displayed at the point clicked and is
named number (1).
3. Create additional QuickWaypoints by clicking points further along the route. These QuickWaypoints
will be successively numbered (2), (3), etc...
Note : All the QuickWaypoints created are not listed in the Waypoints Database. They are only temporary
Waypoints linked to a specific route (if you delete the route, all the QuickWaypoints will be erased)
Place Waypoints on the chart and build the Planning Route:
1. Select the Plotting Tool (Pencil)
2. Choose a shape (icon) and color for your Waypoints
3. Move the Plotting Tool on the chart and click to record Waypoints (each Waypoint will be
automatically saved in the Waypoints Database)
4. When you have plotted enough Waypoints, you may change the tool and select the Route tool to
create the Route by selecting and connecting any combination of these waypoints, or new
QuickWaypoints. Take care that no Route is selected at this moment because the Waypoints will be
added to this one. To unselect a route, simply double-click on the Route Tool.
5. Click on each Waypoint in the desired order to build the Route.
Note : if you erase a route created with existing Waypoints, the waypoints will not be deleted.
