Saving automatically and manually

For this test, I set the receiver to log tracks to the data card on the Data Card Setup page from the Tracks Setup page. I found that if you do not save the track log manually via the menu, the track log is saved every day automatically. These tracks do not show on the list of Saved Tracks on the Tracks page, but they do show under Data Card Tracks on the Data Card Setup page. They can be copied from the data card in USB Mass Storage mode.

Exceeding the 10,000 point limit

For this test I enabled the option for Wrap When Full on the Tracks Setup page. If the track log exceeds 10,000 points, all of the points from the beginning to the end of the track are saved to the track log, even those that are beyond 10,000 points. Logging for 24 hours at a 1 point per second interval produced a 9.63 megabyte file with 86,319 points!

Power out while logging

For this test, I set the receiver to log tracks to the data card on the Data Card Setup page from the Tracks Setup page. I left the receiver logging every one second while the batteries became depleted. If battery power is lost while logging the track, the track log file on the memory card is closed cleanly at the last moment.

Logging over midnight

For this test, I set the receiver to log tracks to the data card on the Data Card Setup page from the Tracks Setup page. I used a logging interval of one second. When the track log is operated over midnight, the file is saved automatically with a final time stamp of 23:59:59 (local time) and a new file is started for the next day with a starting time stamp of 00:00:00 (local time).
