Trails

A trail, or plot trail, is a string of position points plotted by iFINDER 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.

Easy Mode only allows you to work with one trail. But Advanced Mode
lets you save up to 10 trails in iFINDER's memory. Since you can copy
these trails to MMCs in the form of GPS Data Files (*.usr format), the
only true limit on the number of trails you can record is the number of
MMCs you can carry in your pockets.

(For various trail options, see the Trail Options entry in Sec. 5.)

Create and Save a Trail
iFINDER is set at the factory to automatically create and record a trail
while the unit is turned on. It will continue recording the trail until the
length reaches the maximum trail point setting (default is 2,000, but
the unit can record trails 9,999 points long). When the point limit is
reached, iFINDER begins recording the trail over itself.

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 a trail is set inactive, iFINDER automatically creates and begins
recording a new trail.

Clear a Trail
This is the command Easy Mode uses to erase the active trail and im-
mediately begin recording a new one. It's only available in Easy Mode.
