3 Advanced Operation<br />
Cross track error<br />
Cross track error (XTE) is the distance between the current position<br />
and a planned route. The autopilot receives the cross track error<br />
information from the navigation equipment, and displays the XTE in<br />
nautical miles (nm), statute miles (SM) or kilometres.<br />
If the cross track error is greater than 0.3 nm, the <strong>ST6001</strong>+ will sound<br />
the Large Cross Track Error warning and show whether you are to the<br />
port (Pt) or starboard (Stb) of the planned track.
