Auto Save Settings
Press MENU twice to open the main menu. Select Setup > Recording > Advanced Setup > Auto Save.
When Full: Automatically saves the current recording and starts a new one when the current recording is near
20,000 track points.
Daily: Automatically saves the previous day's recording and starts a new one when you turn on the device on a
new day.
Weekly: Automatically saves the previous week's recording and starts a new one when you turn on the device
on a new week.
Auto: Automatically saves the current recording based on its length and the number of track points taken.
Never: Never saves the current recording automatically. When the current recording nears 20,000 track points,
the device filters the active track to remove redundant points while retaining the shape and history of the
recording. Unfiltered points are saved in a temporary GPX and FIT file that is saved or discarded when the
recording stops.
NOTE: When importing FIT activities or GPX tracks with more than 20,000 track points, the device filters the
line to fit in the device memory and improve map drawing performance, while retaining the shape and history
of the recording. The FIT and GPX files retain all of their original track points.
