Using Tracback on Foretrex Devices

The Tracback feature allows you to navigate back to your starting point along your current track. Since Trackback only works with the current track log, if a saved or archived track is chosen, the Trackback option will not appear.

Before you start tracking an activity, the current track should be cleared at your starting location. This will ensure that the Tracback feature will bring you back to your starting location. If you wish to keep your current track for later reference, you can save the track before clearing.
