Getting Started

Deleting Track Logs/

Powering Off Unit

To get a feel for how the Main Menu Page works, let’s clear out the track log. This will ensure that

you have a clean slate once you start navigating in your home waters.

To select the Track submenu tab:

1. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight the ‘Track’ menu tab. You will see the options for the Track

tab appear to the right of the Main Menu list.

2. Press to the right one time on the ARROW KEYPAD and you will see ‘Active’ highlighted.

The Track Log Page allows you to specify whether to record a track plot, defi ne how it is recorded

and save your current track log. It also provides both an indicator of the percentage of total memory
used and the individual options to save or clear the active track log.

To clear the active track log:

1. Highlight the ‘Clear’ option and press ENTER/MARK. A confi rmation page will appear.

2. Highlight the ‘OK’ prompt and press ENTER/MARK to confi rm.

3. Press PAGE or QUIT to return to any of the main pages.
