Track Log Setup Page

The track log setup page lets you manage the GPS

120XL’s tracking data. From this page, you can select

whether or not to record a track and define how it is

recorded. Note: Track display options (showing or not

showing a recorded track log on the Map Page). are

addressed on page 52.

To turn track log recording on or off:

1. Highlight the ‘RECORD’ field and press

2. Select ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ and press

. NOTE: Turning the

track recording off will disable the TracBack feature.

Track Criteria

The stored track criteria determines how often posi-

tions are stored in the track log. The default setting is

automatic, which will store a track based on resolution.

This setting gives you the most efficient use of track

memory and provides the most accurate TracBack route.

To change the criteria to record points based

upon a specific time interval:

1. Highlight the ‘CRITERIA’ field and press

2. Use

to select ‘Time Interval’ and press

3. Press

to begin entry of the interval.

4. Enter a value in hours, minutes and seconds, and

press the

key.

Managing and Clearing the Track Log

The rest of the track log setup page displays the per-

centage of available memory currently used to store

track log data and function fields in order to clear the

track log memory and activate the TracBack feature.

To clear the track log:

1. Highlight ‘CLEAR LOG?’ and press

2. A warning page will appear, and ask you to confirm

your actions. Use the

key to move the field highlight

to the ‘Yes?’ field and press

Track Log Setup

REFERENCE

Turning the track recording

option off will prevent you

from using the TracBack

option.

Entering a time interval in

to the track recording crite-

ria will plot your position

points further apart than

they would be in the

“Automatic” setting. This

will increase the distance

you can travel without

using up your track log, but

will greatly reduce the effec-

tiveness of TracBack.
