14.10 How to Display AIS Target Past Positions
The past position display shows equally time-spaced dots marking past positions of
activated AIS targets. A new dot is added at preset time intervals until the preset num-
ber is reached. If a target changes its speed, the spacing will be uneven. If it changes
course, its plotted course will not be a straight line.
Past Positions (or the length of trace) and presentation mode can be set on the infor-
mation area, as shown in the next section.
14.10.1 How to enable/disable the past position display

Note: The number of past position points and points style can be selected on the [Tar-
gets] page. See section 13.6.2.
