Waypoint Sequence
When following a route, prepared on a navigator or plotter, there are two options: the Pilot can follow the
whole route automatically or to require manual acceptance of a change of course.
When Automatic Waypoint Sequence is selected, the Pilot on reaching a waypoint will flash the bearing to
next waypoint, for 7 seconds, but turn onto it automatically after the first 2 seconds.
When Manual Waypoint Acceptance is selected, the Pilot, on reaching a waypoint, will scroll the message
n n e e w w w w p p t t p p r r e e s s s s a a u u t t o o for 10 seconds. The vessel will not turn onto the new course unless the AUTO key is pres-
sed. If the AUTO key has not been pressed, after 7 seconds the Pilot will switch to Compass control and
continue on its present heading until new instructions are received.

NMEA 2 and NMEA 3 are only available with a PILOT BOX 619. Change the Navigator Name in the same
manner, if a navigator is fitted.
Tack Angle
Tack Angle is only available when s s a a i i l l b b o o a a t t is selected as the Boat Type.
This is the angle through which the vessel will tack when a Port or Starboard Tack is initiated under Compass
control (see page 45).
The tack function uses the compass heading and subtracts or adds the tack angle to create the new cour-
se to Port or Starboard, respectively. Manually calculate the Tack Angle in the normal way and enter it here.
