• Wrap When Full—causes the track log to
record over the oldest data with new data.
• Record Method—Distance records track points
after a specified distance is traveled. Time creates
track points after a specified time has elapsed.
Auto allows you choose from five intervals.
• Interval—records a track according to the
Record Method (Time, Distance, or Auto) and
Interval (Time, Distance, or Frequency). Enter
a specific distance, time, or frequency.

• Log Track to Data Card—records the current
track log to the microSD card in addition to the

users with special applications for track log data.
Track logs on the data card are .gpx GPS position

more about .gpx files, search the Web for subjects
titled GPX or GPS Exchange Format.
