As you are moving, the eXplorist continuously records your
track. Much like leaving breadcrumbs on the trail that you
can use later to find your way back, the eXplorist leaves
“electronic breadcrumbs” on the map. The advantage
here is that you don’t have to worry about animals coming
along and eating your return route markers.
This provides you with just another tool to make your
eXplorist more valuable to you out in the field or on the
waters. You can save your active track as a track log or as
a multi-leg route that you can use over and over. You can
also create a backtrack route that will guide you back to
your starting point, following the same path you just took.
You will find many other additional uses for track logs once
you feel comfortable with them.
Track Logs
As mentioned above, track logs are records of your travels using electronic breadcrumbs to
record where you have been. Track logs can be a track history that you have saved or the
active track the eXplorist is recording.
Features of Track Logs:
• Active track is recording your travels whenever you are moving unless you have
intentionally turned it off.
• Up to three track logs can be saved and recalled at a later date.
• Active tracks can be cleared, stopped, and resumed, adding flexibility to recorded
tracking.
• Active tracks can be converted to a saved multi-leg route, providing a quick and easy
way to create routes that can be used in the future.
• BackTrack, a function of Track Logs, provides an easy, and quick way to activate a route
that will return you to your starting position.
