Disappearing Distance to Waypoint and Track Questions

[Vitz]

I'm still trying to get my TZT2 dialed in and have a couple of questions.

1. When I'm navigating to a waypoint, is there a way to keep the distance to go from disappearing when you get close to the waypoint? I do a lot of bottom fishing and like to know exactly how far I am away from the waypoint at all times but the distance to go disappears when I get close.

2. Right now, the tracks showing on my plotter are all angular, almost like the plotter is not updating as fast as it could be. I thought maybe that was just how the tracks looked but then I saw the screenshots on the post below and noticed how they are rounded/smooth and not angular. How do I get my tracks to look like these?

1. In the routes menu set the waypoint switch mode to circle only and set the radius to 0.
2. Tracking can lay down a point based on time. After every point is plotted it connects with line to form the track. Go to the ship & Track menu and set the time interval to a shorter period. Remember that the shorter the interval the more memory it is using so take the time to delete unnecessary tracks and turn off tracking when not needed.

Hi Vitz
I am having the same issue with my TZ2 I set it to 0 Now I get closer to my mark but once I hit my mark it goes to zero My old navnet2 would stay on so I could tell how far away I was from my spot after anchoring. Did yours stay on once u did the switch?

Thanks Bill
