The Edit Route dialog
You can add and remove routepoints, and change route properties using the Edit Route
dialog. This dialog is activated by selecting an active route's pop-up or from the menu by
selecting the route then the details option.

Tracks
Tracks are a graphical presentation of the historical path of the vessel, allowing you to retrace
where you have travelled. Tracks
can be converted to routes from the Edit dialog.
From the factory, the system is set to automatically track and draw the vessel's movement on
the chart panel. The system continues to record the Tracks until the length reaches the
maximum points, and then automatically begins overwriting the oldest points.
The automatic tracking function can be turned off from the Tracks dialog.
Creating new Tracks
You can start a new track from the Tracks dialog, activated by using the Waypoints tool on
the Home page.
Tracks settings
Tracks are made up of a series of points connected by line segments whose length depends
on the frequency of the recording.
You can select to position track points based on time settings, distance, or by letting the
system position a waypoint automatically when a course change is registered.
Ú
Note: The Tracks option must also be turned ON in the panel settings dialog to be
visible.
