From the factory, the system is set to automatically track and draw
the vessel's movement on the panel. The system continues to
record the trail until the length reaches the maximum points, and
then automatically begins overwriting the oldest points.
The automatic tracking function can be turned off from the Edit
Trails dialog.
Creating new Trails
You can start a new trail from the Trails dialog, activated by using
the Waypoints, Routes, Trails tool on the Home page and selecting
the Trails tab.
Trails settings
Trails are made up of a series of points connected by line segments
whose length depends on the frequency of the recording.
You can select to position trail points based on time settings,
distance, or by letting the system position a trail point automatically
when a course change is registered.
To specify how trail points are positioned on a trail, select the menu
icon on the Trails dialog and then the Settings option.

The Trails option must also be turned ON in the panel
settings dialog to be visible.
