4.4Track Plotting Method, Interval

In drawing the track, first the ship’s position (fed from the DGPS/GPS receiver, WAAS) is stored into the unit’s memory at an interval of time or distance. A shorter interval provides better reconstruction of the track, but the storage time of the track is reduced. When the track memory becomes full, the oldest track is erased to make room for the latest.
