Chapter 4: Using the Chart 79
How can I use tracks?
Tracks can be used to:
• Review where you have been.
• Retrace your original journey by converting the track to a route and automatically
reversing it.
If required, a track can be personalized and the track options customized to your own
particular needs. You can:
• Rename a track.
• Change the color of a track.
• Specify the time period between track point creation (see
page 90
).
• Specify the distance between each track point (see
page 90
).

If the power fails whilst a track is being recorded or the position fix is lost, a break will
occur in the track. Only the last segment of a track can be converted into a route.
If the maximum number of tracking points is reached, you will be warned. The track
will continue to be recorded with the earlier tracking points being overwritten.
