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 unit’s 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:
