6.7 Data Log Mode
You can set the chartplotter to log course data every thirty minutes. Up to 48
log entries are held, when 48 entries have been made, the chartplotter will start
overwriting the first entries.
You start the log using soft keys provided in Data Log Mode. When you select
Data Log Mode the log is displayed full-screen. If the screen is full, you use the
trackpad to scroll the list and view further log entries. Each line in the log
shows:
• Time of log entry
• Position at time of log entry
• Course Made Good (CMG) since last log entry
• Distance Made Good (DMG) since last log entry
Once you have enabled the data log, data is continually logged, but you must
set the display to Data Log Mode to view it. You use the
DISPLAY key to
change the full-screen mode.
You can stop the log at any time and you can clear the log from memory.
If the chartplotter is switched off while the log is running, a dashed line will be
displayed before the first new entry since switching the chartplotter on again.
