Creating and Saving a Trail
A trail, or plot trail, is a history of the path you have taken. On the
screen, trails are represented by a solid line extending from the back of
the position arrow.
With the default auto setting, the iFINDER creates a trail by placing a
dot (trail point) on the screen every time you change directions. (The
method used for creating a trail and the trail update rate can both be
adjusted in Advanced Mode. See Sec. 5 for Trail Options.)
In Easy Mode, this unit automatically creates a plot trail when turned
on. It is automatically saved in memory when the unit is turned off.
The iFINDER continues recording the same trail until you clear the
trail, which erases the old trail and starts creation of a new trail.
NOTE:
The iFINDER can record up to 9,999 points per trail, which may be
adjusted in Advanced Mode. The default setting is a maximum of
2,000 points. When trail length exceeds the maximum setting, the
unit begins recording the trail over itself.
In Advanced Mode, you can save and recall up to 10 different plot
trails, which may be copied to your MMC for archiving.
Caution:
You also have the option of turning off trail recording in Ad-
vance Mode. If the option is left turned off, it will cancel the
automatic trail creation feature in Easy Mode.
Displaying a Saved Trail
The trail is automatically displayed in Easy Mode by default. Trail dis-
play can be selectively turned off and on only in Advanced Mode.
