GETTING STARTED > INITIALIZING THE GPS RECEIVER
Receiver Status and Accuracy
The Status field on the Info sub tab shows the receiver status. Current accuracy
is shown in the EPE (Estimated Position Error) field. Accuracy uses the number
of received GPS satellites, signal strength, and satellite orientation, to calculate
location accuracy in feet or meters. The Status field shows one of the following
conditions:
• Searching for Satellites—the receiver is looking for any satellites and
collecting data from satellites visible at its last known or initialized
location, but has not collected enough data to calculate a fix. This process
can take up to five minutes.
• Ready For Navigation—at least three satellites with good geometry
were acquired, and your location is now being calculated in latitude
and longitude; or at least four satellites were acquired and your location
is being calculated in latitude, longitude, and elevation. “Ready For
Navigation with WAAS” appears when you are receiving WAAS satellite
corrections in 2D or 3D, and a D appears on the strength bar of satellites
being corrected.
After the receiver has collected information from at least three satellites, the
Status field shows either “Ready for Navigation” or “Ready for Navigation with
WAAS.” The GPSMAP 2206/2210 is now ready for use. Press QUIT to return to
the Map Page.

BASIC OPERATION > NAVIGATING TO A DESTINATION
TracBack allows you to retrace your path using the track log stored in the
receiver’s memory, which eliminates the need to store waypoints along the way.
TracBack routes are created by reducing your track log into a route and activating
an inverted route. When active, a TracBack route leads you through your stored
track log points, so it is a good idea to clear the existing track log before you start
your current trip.

TracBack Tips
When a TracBack is active, the GPSMAP 2206/2210 takes the track log stored
in memory and divides it into segments called legs. Up to 300 temporary turns
(BEGIN, TURN 1, TURN 2,...., TURN X, END) are created to mark the most
significant features of the track log to duplicate your exact path as closely as
possible. To get the most out of the TracBack feature, remember the following
tips:
Initiating a Follow Track
You must save a track before using the Follow Track option. If there are no saved
tracks, the message “There are no Saved Tracks to follow” appears.
To follow a track using the NAV key:
1. Press NAV, highlight Follow Track, and press ENTER. The Select Track
Page appears.
2. Highlight the track you want to follow, and press ENTER.
3. To invert the Follow Track (navigate it in the reverse direction), press NAV,
highlight Invert Route, and press ENTER.

2. Highlight TracBack, and press ENTER. The TracBack Through window
appears.
3. Highlight the time, date, or Entire Log, and press ENTER.
To stop TracBack navigation:
1. Press NAV.
2. Highlight Stop Navigation, and press ENTER.
• Always clear the track log at the starting point.
• The Record Mode option on the track log setup page must be set to Fill or
Wrap.
• At least two track log points must be stored in memory to create a
TracBack route.
• If the track log Interval field is set to Time
, the route may not follow your
exact path (keep the interval set to Resolution for best performance).
• If the receiver is turned off or satellite coverage is lost during your trip,
TracBack draws a straight line between any point where coverage was lost
and where it resumed.
• If your track log’s changes in distance and direction are too complex,
300 waypoints might not mark your path accurately. The receiver then
assigns the 300 waypoints to the most significant points of your track, and
simplifies segments with fewer changes in direction.
