Calculate Area
The GPS can now calculate an area using the track log.
Before using the CALC AREA feature you need to clear the track
log. Please refer to your GPS Owner’s Manual for directions on
clearing the track log.
To calculate an area the GPS needs to have a non-linear
track.
The GPS will measure the area enclosed between the
first and last points in a track log.
If you are intending to use
the CALC AREA feature, do not let the track log cross over
itself.
This will cause the unit to subtract and will falsify the
readings.
The unit used to measure the area can be determined
automatically by the GPS or manually set by the user.
