Using Tracks

The Tracks feature creates an electronic bread crumb

trail or “track log” on the Map page as you travel. The

track log contains information about points along its

path, including time, location, elevation, and depth

(depth requires NMEA input, see

page 41

).

The track log starts recording as soon as the unit gets

a location fix. The percentage of memory used by the

current track log appears at the top of the Tracks page.
