I’m learning the 830 more and believe I understand that navigation and recording an activity are separate things. I’d like to stop (or potentially start) navigating while continuing to record an activity. Should I simply hit the red x on the map screen (will this keep recording)? I think this would be fine but wanted to see if there are other methods or if this functionality works the way I’m thinking. Sometimes, little detours or additions make it easier to simply stop navigation on the fly.
I’m not sure if it’s possible to start navigating in the middle of a ride? Say I stopped it to do an add on, can I restart it somehow with the activity running?
On a similar note, one problem I hit tonight that may be a misunderstanding on my part: near the end of a route a different turn was taken by the group than what was in the original route I was navigating. It eventually met back up with the route as intended, and naturally was getting a lot of off course warnings. However, even when joining the original route a few miles later, the 830 kept telling me I was off course, almost like it was trying to get me back to the original spot where the different turn was taken. Is this intended or a setting somewhere? I would’ve thought it would do a better job at navigating, seeing that I’m back on course. While not an out and back route, there are a couple of segments shared usong both directions that may have been confusing it...
