2.11.36 Trip Log

Menu Heading:

LOG

Function Text:

TRIP LOG

Update Rate:

Once per second

Units:

Nautical miles

Note
Individually resettable.

This is the resettable log for recording trip distance and reads from the
moment it is started, in nautical miles. It must be remembered that this is the
distance sailed through the water, not over the ground. It also forms part of
the calculation for Average Speed. A useful feature is that if it is reset prior to
the start of a race, then when the Timer counts down to zero, the trip log (and
any other trip functions that have been reset) start automatically.

The trip log display can be expanded to display a maximum of 9999 nautical
miles by pressing the Enter Key.
