Reference

GOTO Options are also provided to initiate a TracBack

route or to cancel the current GOTO destination.

To display the GOTO Options, press MENU
immediately after pressing #/GOTO
.

The following options are available:

TracBack— allows you to retrace your path using

the track log automatically stored in the receiver’s
memory. This eliminates the need to store waypoints
along the way.

Cancel GOTO— cancels the current GOTO

destination and resumes navigation of any previously
selected route. If no route is currently in use; bearing,
distance, etc. will remain blank until a destination
waypoint is defined.

To cancel the current GOTO destination,
highlight ‘Cancel GOTO’ and press ENTER.

TracBack Navigation

The TracBack navigation feature allows you to retrace

your path using the Track Log automatically stored in the
receiver’s memory. This eliminates the need to manually
store waypoints along the way. A Track Log is an
electronic breadcrumb trail showing the path you have
traveled. Your unit can be set to automatically record
track log points anytime the receiver is on and locked
onto satellites (see page 119.)

TracBack routes are created by reducing your track

log into a route of up to 30 waypoints and activating the
new route in reverse order along those waypoints. Once
activated, a TracBack route will lead you back to the
oldest track log point stored in memory, so it’s a good idea
to clear the existing track log at the beginning of your
current trip (e.g., at your home airport) before you get
started.

‘TracBack’ allows you to
retrace your path based
upon an automatic
track log recording.

To cancel a current
GOTO destination, select
‘Cancel GOTO’ from the
GOTO Options.
