2.5 Changing Track Plotting
Interval, Stopping Plotting
To trace the ship's track, the ship's position is
stored into the memory at an interval of
distance or according to display range. For
distance, a shorter interval provides better
reconstruction of the track, but the storage
time of the track is reduced. When the track
memory becomes full, the oldest track is
erased to make room for the latest.
1. Press the [MENU] key once or twice to
display the menu.
2. Choose PLOTTER.
