Past Position Display

The past position display shows equally time-spaced dots marking the past positions
of any targets being tracked.
A new dot is added every minute (or at other preset time intervals) until the preset
number is reached. If a target changes its speed, the spacing will be uneven. If it
changes the course, its plotted course will not be a straight line.
Past position orientation, true or relative, is controlled with [TRAIL MODE] in the
[TRAIL] context menu. To adjust the trail orientation, see section 1.37.1.
