SLAVE CHART PLOTTER
Operating mode
To select the Slave mode follow the procedure:
[MENU] + "Advanced Options" + [ENTER] + "C-Link" + [ENTER] + "Secondary
Station" + [ENTER]
When Slave mode is set, the chart plotter cannot manipulate the C-Link Navigation
Data anymore.
Stop current navigation
If the navigation was already active, it will be disabled as soon as Slave mode is
set. An appropriate warning message will be shown to notify that the Navigation
is already active and to confirm whether Slave mode can be set.
Inhibit Navigation operation
As soon as Slave mode is set, the Destination cannot be placed anymore either
the C-Link Navigation Data is received from the Master or not. Also, when the
C-Link Navigation Data is received from the Master, it will not be allowed to
deactivate the Navigation.
Inhibit Route following
While navigating to the route received from the Master the Destination is reached
(either applying distance or perpendicular criteria), the Destination will not be
moved to the next Waypoint on the Route.
MOB handling
If the Navigation to the external Destination is active and [MOB] is pressed on the
Slave chart plotter, the MOB is placed but the navigation to the MOB is not activated.
Notes
While navigating to the external Destination the operating mode is switched to
Master mode, the navigation to the external Destination will be terminated. An
appropriate warning message will be shown to notify that the Navigation to the
external Destination is active and to confirm whether Slave mode can be set.
Setting Slave mode, the C-Link Navigation Data will be deleted.
The C-Link Navigation Data are deleted at Power Off.
C-LINK NAVIGATION DATA: ACQUISITION AND DISPLAY
As soon as the C-Link Navigation Data is received, the Slave parses the information
received and executes the relative actions depending on its current working status.
Note When the Navigation to the external Destination is activated, the Slave Chart
Plotter will show all relevant C-Link Navigation Data exactly like when the
Destination is not the external one (Destination Name, DST and BRG to
Destination, calculate XTE, calculate TTG etc). These values will be displayed all
places where required and they will be used to format NMEA-0183 output data.
