Navigating a Saved Track

The TracBack function allows you to retrace your path using the

track log automatically stored in the receiver’s memory, which

eliminates the need to store waypoints along the way. TracBack

routes are created by reducing your track log into a route with up to

50 turns and activating an inverted route along those points. When

activated, a TracBack route leads you back to the oldest stored track

log point, so it is a good idea to clear the existing track log before

you start your current trip. You must save an active track log before

you can navigate it as a TracBack.
