[LW11] LH3 Distance and Bearing - watsala - 07-02-19 01:44 PM

What is the best way to measure a distance and bearing between two points? (And the current location is neither).

Thanks

W

Dear watsala,

Thank you for your post.

Currently the ruler feature is not available in Lighthouse 3, however it is due to come out with a software update soon.

A suggestion for measuring the distances between 2 points would be to create a route with 2 waypoints. A waypoint and point 1 and a waypoint at point 2, this will give you the distance.

Many Thanks
Louise

Thanks - this would indeed be a handy feature in the event of say a GPS failure and you need to use the plotter like a paper chart, and also for route planning.

Thanks
