The unit is set to automatically create and record a trail when it is
turned on. The unit will continue recording the trail until the length
reaches the maximum trail point setting. The default is 2,000 points,
but the unit can record trails 9,999 points long. When the point limit is
reached, the unit begins recording the trail over itself.
With the default auto setting, this unit creates a trail by placing a dot on
the screen every time you change directions. The methods used for creat-
ing a trail and the trail update rate can be adjusted or even turned off.
See Sec. 8 for Trail Options.
To preserve a trail from point A to point B, you must turn off the trail
by making it inactive before heading to point C or even back to point A.
When the current trail is set inactive, the unit automatically begins
recording a new trail.
