TRACKER 5505/5505i/5605 Installation and Operation Manual 21 NAVMAN
Tracking records the boat’s position to memory
at regular intervals, which can be:
Time intervals.
Or distance intervals.
The track of where the boat has been can
be displayed on the chart. The TRACKER can
display one track while recording another.
To work with tracks, see section 14-5.
The TRACKER can store five tracks:
Track 1 can hold up to 2000 points and is
intended to record the normal progress of
the boat.
Tracks 2, 3, 4 and 5 can hold up to 500
points each and are intended to record
sections to be retraced accurately, for
example entering a river mouth.
Tip: Record the tracks in good conditions.
When recording is on and the track becomes
full then recording continues and the oldest
points in the track are deleted. The maximum
3-5 Tracks and tracking
length of a track depends on the selected track
interval: a small interval will give a shorter,
more detailed track and a long interval will give
a longer, less detailed track, as shown in these
examples:
The track lengths are in the current distance
units, for example nm.
If Projected course is turned on, then the
TRACKER will display the projected position
based on the course over ground (COG), speed
and a specified time. To turn Projected course
on and off and to set the time, see section 14-2.
