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.
See the illustration below for dot pattern and ship status.
Past position orientation, true or relative, is controlled with TRAIL MODE on the TRAIL menu..
