Main Menu:
Track Logs
The Track Logs Page
shows available memory
for the active log (the log
currently being re-
corded) and lists any
saved track logs.
From the Track Logs Page,
press MENU to view the
Track Log Options.
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 memory used for the active track log and
options to clear the track memory or start a
TracBack route. See pages 54-55 for TracBack
information.
The Track Logs Page is divided in two main
sections: one for the active log (the log cur-
rently 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.
Track Log Settings
To view the Track Log Options, highlight
‘Active Log’ or any of the ‘Saved Logs’ (on
the Track Logs Page) and press MENU.
The following options are available:
TracBack - converts the track log data in
memory into an inverted route (of up to 30
waypoints) and begins navigation along the
route. See pages 54-55.
Save Active Log - extracts up to 250 of the
most significant points along the active log,
saves this information as a ‘saved log’, and
clears the active log. Up to 10 saved logs may
be stored in memory, along with a 13-
character name. The default name is the date
the log was saved, but you can specify any
name you wish. You can prevent the active
log from being cleared by pressing QUIT
when prompted.
