GO / MOB

GO (Reset the Cross Track Error)

Note: A valid GPS signal must be received to see this selection.

Press GO if you are navigating to a waypoint and want to reset the cross track error.
This is a very useful single keystroke feature to use if you wander a little off-course but
want to continue to your active waypoint.

The bearing and distance to the waypoint and any cross track error are shown on the
bottom line of the LCD.

MOB (Man Over Board)

Hold down MOB until the radio automatically enters Navigation mode, saves your cur-
rent latitude and longitude as the MOB waypoint and immediately sets this position
as the destination waypoint.

You will see the following sequence of LCDs:
