Main Menu Page
The main menu page’s eleven submenus are divided into categories by function.
You can select a particular submenu by simply highlighting the desired option and
pressing
T
. To get a feel for how the main menu page works, let’s clear out the
track log we’ve created during our simulated tour. Clearing the track log will ensure
that you have a clean slate once you start navigating in your home waters.
To select the track submenu:
1. Highlight the ‘Track’ menu option and press
T
.
The track log page allows you to specify whether to record a track plot and define
how it is recorded. It also provides both an indicator of the total memory used and
the individual functions to clear the track log and start a TracBack route.
To delete the track log:
1. Highlight the ‘Delete Track’ option and press
T
. A confirmation page will appear.
2. Highlight the ‘Yes’ prompt and press
T
to confirm.
3. Press
J
to return to the main page sequence.

ence guide or the appropriate reference section of this manual.
