| Option            | Description                                                                                                                                                |
| ----------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Auto Distance** | Select the distance in yards that your recorder should automatically create a waypoint.                                                                    |
| **Start**         | Click on Start and run your lap. For example, if you have set 30 yards in your Auto Distance, a new waypoint will be created automatically every 30 yards. |
| **Stop**          | Use the Stop button to end the automatic recording mode.                                                                                                   |
| **Single Coord**  | Creates a single waypoint. The combination of single and automatic waypoints is also possible.                                                             |
| **Exact Coord**   | If this coordinate is set, Grinder will stop there and aim exactly at the next coordinate before Grinder will move on.                                     |
| **Reset**         | Resets all previous set waypoints.                                                                                                                         |
| **Save**          | Opens the menu for saving.                                                                                                                                 |
