To log tracks to the microSD card:

1. With the Track Log setup page shown, select the

Data Card Setup button, and press Enter to open

the Data Card setup page.

2. Select the

Log Track to Data Card option, and

then press

Enter to activate.

This file is a continuous compilation of all track

data for that date. As long as enabled, a new file is

recorded for each day until the card is filled.

Track logs share card space with MapSource

mapping data, so storage space is reduced. Open

the

Card Info option from the option menu to view

the amount of card storage space available

3. To read or transfer the .gpx files, connect to your

PC and enable the USB Mass Storage feature as

explained on

page 54

. Use Garmin MapSource or

another .gpx file-compatible application.

4. To delete these track logs from the microSD card,

select individual logs, and then press

Enter. Use

the

Delete All button to clear the entire list. To

avoid data corruption, do not remove the card from

the unit while logging tracks.

Using the TracBack Feature

When you are ready to return to where you started, the

Rino takes you back by following the track log that you

left behind. You can save a total of 20 tracks in the unit

memory. When you no longer need a Track Log, press the

Clear button to remove it.

To use the TracBack feature:

Select the

TracBack button and the track is shown

on the map and you are prompted to select the

point you want to TracBack to.

When the track log memory field reaches 100%, the most

recent track points start to overwrite the least recent if the

default setting Wrap When Full remains selected on the

track log setup. To avoid losing track points you want,

save the track log when it approaches the 99% mark. The

active track log stores up to 10,000 points.
The Saved Track page shows the track and it can also be

shown on the Main Map page as you navigate. You can

save up to 20 tracks with 500 points per track in the unit.

Saved contact tracks count towards this total.
