A track is a recording of points along the path you travel.
Viewing a prole of a track gives you valuable information
about the track’s elevation—you can view the prole over
track distance or time recorded while traveling. When the
prole changes while you are stationary and tracking by
time, the prole indicates changes in pressure that you
can use to monitor weather changes. The Prole Page
lets you view the elevation of the active track as it is
recording or that of a saved track.
For more information about tracks, see The Tracks Page
section starting on page 66.
Viewing a Prole
You can open the Prole Page from the Home Page
or from the menu on the Tracks Page.
The Prole Page shows two views of the track you are
proling. Press up or down on the arrow keypad to switch
which view is active—the crosshair appears on the
active view.
Detailed–The upper section of the page shows the
section of the track you are viewing. The initial view
shows the track from its start to the current location
(for an active track) or to the nish (for a saved track).
Overview–The bottom section of the page shows
a prole of the entire track.
Time or Distance
You can view the track prole by distance along the track
or by time travelled along the track.
To change the prole method, go to MENU > Switch to
Distance Prole or Switch to Time Prole. The x axis
of the prole graph reects the method.
