3.7 Using tracks
The Track function is used to mark an on-screen 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 units memory. You
specify the interval at which track points are made and a line is drawn on-screen
between each point. Up to 2000 track points can be saved in total.
The track remains on-screen, even following a Power off/on, until you clear the
track.
Using the SmartRoute function, a track can also be converted to and saved as a
route which is automatically reversed, ready for use as your return voyage.
This section describes how to:
Set up a track and specify the interval between track points.
Clear the current track.
Convert the track to a route (SmartRoute).
To access the track controls:
