O General Congratulations on selecting Raytheons' NAV 398 for Loran-C/GPS navigation aboard your vessel. We are sure you will enjoy using this ultra modern, full function, and compact navigation system. [. . . ] Please wait for the message to disappear before continuing to the next operation. 3. 6. 5 Waypoint List Operations As mentioned earlier, the Waypoint List lets you scan through the contents of the waypoint memories. You can select any of the stored waypoints to Edit, Copy, Protect, Measure or Erase from this page. In addition the waypoint list, which is normally arranged in sequential memory # order, may be re-sorted alphabetically by name for ease in locating specific waypoints using themsoftkey. OPERATION 3-24 3. 6. 5. 1 Selecting Waypoints To control the positioning of the list contents, the 1 (up) key lets you look at the listed waypoints at - the top of the list; the 3 (down) key lets you look at waypoints down the list. The waypoint # appearing in the highlighted block is the "selected" waypoint and is the waypoint that can be operated on if the [mJar m keys are pressed. 'G N ?34 I 3. 6. 5. 2 Editing Waypoints To add a name or symbol, or edit the L/L coordinate data to any selected waypoint, just select-the waypoint using either method listed above. This returns you to the NAME WAYPOMT display so you can make the necessary changes. To Copy, Erase, or Protect a particular waypoint or event mark just select the waypoint using either method listed above. Press the @key and the display changes to WAYPOINT-SF. 3. 6. 5. 3 SF Operations If you press the m key on the Waypoint List display, you can perform some additional operations with the stored waypoint data including the following: A. Protecting Waypoints While on the Waypoint List, place the number of the waypoint to be "Protected" in the highlighted box on the Waypoint List. On the WAYPOINT SF screen confirm that number shown under PROTECTWPTSEVENTS is correct. Press the ~PRoTECT wmm MmK[ sotiey to turn "ON" the Protection feature. RDTECT WPWEKNTS b t!!!ON lpE0 EFUEWPTWENTS b 800 coPY~EAsuREwPls # When a waypoint memory is "Protected" the character "P" is displayed on the WAYPOINT LIST and Waypoint Directory screens, and the waypoint may not be overwritten with new coordinate data until the protection is first turned OFF or if a "Master Reset" of the unit is performed. Erasing a Waypoint While on the Waypoint List, place the number ofthe waypoint to be "erased" in the highlighted box. Then press the q softkey for the WAYPOINT - SF menu. OPERATION 3-25 On the WAYPOINT SF screen, confirm that the number shown under ERASE WAYPOMT is correct. Also verify that the Waypoint Protection feature for the selected waypoint is OFF. Make sure that the waypoint to be erased is NOT selected as your current destination. Only waypoints protected "manually" cannot be accidentally erased. Copying Waypoints Waypoints can easily be transferred from one memory location to another using the COPY feature. Then type the waypoint # (from) and press-1 Then press the waypoint # (to) and press (ENTERI again. Measuring between Waypoints You can easily measure the bearing and range between any two waypoints stored in memory by pressing the/ COPY/MEASURE WPTS~ soflkey on the WAYPOINT - SF screen. Then type the number of the "FROM" waypoint and -1 followed by the number of the "TO" waypoint. [. . . ] However, under extremely rare conditions, (for example: during very low and intermittent DC input power conditions, such as while starting engines) the unit could "hang up" or "freeze". If this condition should occur, re-boot the NAV 398 with a Master Reset when the DC power condition has been normalized. There are two types of Master Resets available: l Hard Reset - Clears all waypoint memories and resets the unit to the default settings. l Soft Reset - Only resets the default settings, but does not effect the waypoint memories.
