Creating and Saving a Trail
A trail, or plot trail, is a string of position points plotted by the Global-
Map 7000C as you travel. It's a travel history, a record of the path you
have taken. Trails are useful for repeating a journey along the same
track. They are particularly handy when you are trying to retrace your
trip and go back the way you came. On the screen, trails are repre-
sented by a magenta line extending from the back of the current posi-
tion arrow.
The GlobalMap 7000C is set at the factory to automatically create and
record a trail while the unit is turned on. The unit will continue re-
cording the trail until the length reaches the maximum trail point set-
ting (default is 2,000, but the unit can record trails 9,999 points long).
When the point limit is reached, the GlobalMap 7000C begins recording
the trail over itself.
By default, the trail flashes once a second, making it easier to see
against the background map. With the default auto setting, the
GlobalMap 7000C creates a trail by placing a dot (trail point) on the
screen every time you change directions. (The methods used for creat-
ing a trail and the trail update rate can both be adjusted or even turned
off. See Sec. 5 for Trail Options.)
To preserve a trail from point A to point B, you must "turn off" the trail
by making it inactive before heading to point C or even back to point A.
When the current trail is set inactive, the GlobalMap 7000C automati-
cally creates and begins recording a new trail.
