Main Menu Page

The main menu page’s eleven submenus are divided into categories by function.

You can select a particular submenu by simply highlighting the desired option and
pressing T. To get a feel for how the main menu page works, let’s clear out the
track log we’ve created during our simulated tour. Clearing the track log will ensure
that you have a clean slate once you start navigating in your home waters.

To select the track submenu:

1. Highlight the ‘Track’ menu option and press

T

.

The track log page allows you to specify whether to record a track plot and define

how it is recorded. It also provides both an indicator of the total memory used and
the individual functions to clear the track log and start a TracBack route.

To delete the track log:

1. Highlight the ‘Delete Track’ option and press

T

. A confirmation page will appear.

2. Highlight the ‘Yes’ prompt and press

T

to confirm.

3. Press

J

to return to the main page sequence.
