3.6 Using Tracks
The Track function is used to mark on-screen the trail that your vessel
has followed, as if it had left a visible fixed wake.
While the track is turned on, it is recorded in the display unit’s memory.
You specify the interval at which track points are made, a line is drawn
on-screen between each point. Up to 5000 track points can be saved in
total, in up to 5 track files (each a maximum of 1000 points).
The track remains on-screen, even following a Power off/on, until you
clear the track.
A track can be saved and retrieved for display at a later date. For
example, you may wish to display a previous track, and then place
waypoints along it that you can follow. You can only display one track at
a time; you must clear a current track from the screen if you want to
display a saved track.
This section describes how to:
• Setting up a track, including how to specify the interval.
• Clearing the current track.
• Managing tracks, using the track list, including Saving, Naming,
Erasing and Showing a track.
