Tap the Start button to start recording a track. The red
REC button lights up and the Start button changes to
Pause. You can pause and then resume the track re-
cording at any time. When you have finished recording
the track, you can store it as a gpx file and give it a
name. It then appears in Tours view.
It is helpful to configure one of the six fields to show
the horizontal GPS accuracy. If this field does not show
a value, this means that the GPS does not currently
have a position fix.
In the Settings menu (see page 32 ) you can choose
three different track recording methods (optimized,
time-based or distance-based track points).
While recording a track, you can switch off the display
to save battery power (briefly press the power button).
During a recording, the gps remains active even when
the screen is dark.
If you switch back to Map view, the track you are re-
cording is automatically shown overlaid as a coloured
line on the map (see
Fig. 15 on page 30).
