- antipole - September 10, 2012

I have finally got to grips with the sail timer function of MacENC- and very helpful it was on a long tack across the IJsselmeer today.

It seems to flip to the other tack and back at regular intervals, sometimes every few seconds. This is not a problem in itself, as it lets me see what would happen on the other tack, but the connected iPad running iNavX is continuously announcing a new waypoint activation, such that it is almost impossible to use it. Any suggestions?

Also, how can I turn off the sail timer? The only way I have found is to use the 'cancel goto' button in the sail timer window, but that cancels the main goto and route. I need to fall back onto the current waypoint in the current route without the sail timer function.

Any suggestions welcome
Tony
