Waypoint arrival
If enabled, when you arrive at a waypoint, an alarm is
triggered. This setting allows you to specify the radius
of the waypoint arrival circle. The waypoint arrival
circle is an imaginary circle around the destination
waypoint. When your vessel crosses this circle the
Waypoint Arrival alarm is triggered.
Off track
When enabled, during active navigation an alarm is
triggered when your vessel steers off-track more than
the value you specify for the Off Track XTE setting.
