5.7 Using Tracks
The Track function is used to mark on-screen the trail that your vessel has
followed, as if it had left a visible fixed wake.
While the track is turned on, it is recorded in the display unit’s memory. You
specify the interval at which track points are made, a line is drawn on-screen
between each point. Up to 5000 track points can be saved in total, in up to 10
track files (each a maximum of 500 points).
The track remains on-screen, even following a power off/on, until you clear the
track.
A track can be saved and retrieved for display at a later date. For example, you
may wish to display a previous track, and then place waypoints along it that you
can follow. You can only display one track at a time; you must clear a current
track from the screen if you want to display a saved track.
This section describes:
• Seting up a track, including how to specify the interval.
• Clearing the current track.
• Managing tracks, using the track list, including Saving, Naming, Erasing and
Showing a track.
