BackTrack routes use your active track to create a route back to where you started, turning around and
following the electronic breadcrumb trail that the eXplorist dropped.

After BackTrack has been activated, the last viewed navigation screen will be displayed. The eXplorist
will now begin computing the navigation information needed to guide you back to your starting point.
NOTE
: When you have an active BackTrack route, the eXplorist will not be recording track information. The
previously mentioned options – Stop Logging, Resume Logging New Track – will not be available. The
eXplorist will automatically begin recording your track when:
•
You have arrived at your destination.
•
You activate a new route (GOTO or from Route menu).
•
You deactivate the BackTrack. To deactivate a BackTrack:

The active track can get to be very large, especially if you haven’t cleared it in a while. It is recommended that
if you plan to use BackTrack or to save the upcoming track log that you should clear the active track before
beginning your journey. If you do not, the other functions will still work, but you will probably have a lot more
track log information than you want.
