total of 2000 fixes are stored in continuous wrap around memory (i.e. newest data overwrites
oldest). To calculate total logging time, divide 2000 by the logging rate per minute (30 sec

divided by 2 = 1000 minutes = 16 hours 40 mins).

labels to become visible. You can also configure the appearance of the map to your
personal preference for both TOPO ON and TOPO OFF modes.
