Mark Position/MAN OVER BOARD

(MOB) Key

This dual function key stores your present position, date

and time at the next available waypoint location in the

waypoint bank. A window pops up on the screen to con-

firm your key depression, and to tell you where the mark

position is being stored. You can go into the WPT menu

and edit the coordinates or description later. The CDU is

also capable of performing this function from a remote

contact closure input via AUX Cable (MOB/Event) wire.

Refer to the Installation section of this manual for inter-

face instructions.

When depressed for 3 seconds, this function key acti-

vates a number of automatic functions:

► Most obviously, it brings up an MOB1 (Plot) screen.

This is an automatic scaling screen which selects the

best zoom level to display your present position and the

MOB position. In addition, the MOB position is displayed

in the upper left corner, so that you can quickly read the

coordinates to others who may be available to render as-

sistance. This plot screen also provides the vital bearing

and distance back to the MOB position, as well as your

present course over ground.

► The MOB position, date and time are stored in the

Waypoint Bank for future reference (e.g. log book en-

tries).

► Navigation data output on the NMEA ports (i.e. BWC

and BWR), are changed to reflect the current crisis situ-

ation. This way, other interfaced equipment can also

help guide you back to the MOB position. When the MOB

condition is canceled via a MOB screen softkey, the NMEA

sentences will automatically revert to the active route in-

formation. Don’t forget to cancel the MOB so your inter-

faced equipment will read the correct data.

► The MOB function key and remote MOB input are dis-

abled from subsequent activation, until the MOB Cancel

softkey is selected.

► Other functions such as Position and Navigate can still

be accessed; however, the screen will revert to the MOB

Plot screen after 30 seconds. Bearing and distance infor-
