8. TRACKS
The GPS chartplotter has the capability to store 5 individual and record up to 3000 Track
Points.
Before using the Track function you will need to setup the Track function that suits your boat.
The Track function tracks your vessels location as it moves through the water. The Track
function can be setup to lay down a Track for a predetermined time or distance interval. If
you have a fast moving boat you may want to setup the chartplotter to record a Track point
every 0.5NM or if you have a sail boat you may want to setup to lay down a Track point once
ever 1 minute.
NOTE
Pls note the Track point memory is 3000 points. This means for a long journeyyou may have to adjust
the time or distance to be able to track your journey. It should be noted when the 3000 Track points
are used up the first Track point layed down will be deleted when a new point is placed on the chart.
