Main Menu

Nearest— displays up to nine nearest waypoints and 50 nearest cities within
200 miles of your present position, along with 50 exits on the nearest interstate
highway. See page 53.

Routes— allows you to create, edit, activate or delete routes. See pages 60-64.
Track Log— lets you specify whether or not to record a track log (an electronic

‘breadcrumb trail’ recording of your path), define how it is recorded or save track
log data for future use. The Track Logs Page also provides an indicator of the mem-
ory used for the active track log and options to clear the track memory or start a
TracBack route. See pages 58-59 for TracBack information.

The Track Logs Page is divided in two main sections: one for the active log (the log
currently being recorded) and available memory, and the second section showing
any saved track logs and the total number saved. The active log stores up to 1900
track log positions, based upon the criteria specified in the Track Log Options. Up to
10 additional track logs may be saved in memory, with up to 250 track log positions
in each saved log. You may also choose to display/not display the saved log.
