The TracBack function allows you to retrace your path using the track log
automatically stored in the receiver’s memory, which eliminates the need to store
waypoints along the way. TracBack routes are created by reducing your track log
into a route and activating an inverted route. When active, a TracBack route leads
you through your stored track log points, so it is a good idea to clear the existing
track log before you start your current trip.
To clear the track log and define a starting point for a TracBack
route:
1. Press and hold ADJ/MENU to open the Main Menu.
2. Using the ROCKER, highlight the Tracks tab, and then highlight the
Active sub tab.
3. Press the Clear soft key. A confirmation message appears.
4. Press the OK soft key to clear the track log.
