Garmin eTrex Manuale Utente

28

The eTrex draws an electronic breadcrumb trail or 

‘track log’ on the Map Page as you travel. The track log 
starts recording as soon as the eTrex gets a location fi x. 
If you want to keep a record of a certain track log before 
deleting it, go ahead and save it. You can save a total 
of ten tracks in the eTrex. Saved tracks can be used for 
navigation later. After a track log is saved, the saved track 
will have a beginning (BEGIN) and ending (END) point. 
This simply shows the “when/where” of the starting and 
ending points of the saved track.

When you are ready to return to where you started, 

the eTrex will take you back by following the track log 
that you left behind. ‘TracBack’ allows you to return along 
a traveled path without marking any waypoints. If you 
want to keep a record of a certain track log or use the 
‘TracBack’ feature, it is recommended that you clear the 
track log before you start traveling. The percentage of 
memory used by the current track log is displayed at 
the top of the page. After the track log is ‘CLEARED’, it 
will show zero percent. When the display shows 99%, 
the most recent track points will start overwriting the 
least recent track points. Thus, in order to avoid losing 
any track points, you should save the track log before it 
reaches 99% of memory usage.

1.   With the ‘MENU’ Page displayed, press the UP and 

DOWN Buttons to highlight ‘TRACKS’ and press 
ENTER. The ‘TRACK LOG’ Page will appear. 

2.   Highlight the ‘CLEAR’ Button and press ENTER. 

3.   You will be asked ‘DO YOU REALLY WANT TO 

CLEAR THE TRACK LOG?’. Use the DOWN Button to 
highlight ‘YES’ and press ENTER to clear the current 
track log.
