Profiles

Profiles are a collection of settings that optimize your device

based on how you are using it. For example, the settings and

views are different when you are using the device when sailing

than when powerboating.
When you are using a profile and you change settings such as

data fields or units of measurement, the changes are saved

automatically as part of the profile.

of the device to suit the activity by changing the profile.

When you begin tracking or navigating, additional data pages

appear.
Data pages can also show data streamed from your NMEA

2000 network through a Garmin® GNT™.

From the time of day page, select or to cycle through

the data pages.
NOTE: Sensor data is not recorded to the device.

Data Pages

By default, the time, compass, barometer, and temperature

pages appear in all data page flows. The organization and

appearance of other data pages varies based upon these

conditions.

• The active profile
• Whether you are tracking, navigating, or only viewing sensor

data

• Whether you are streaming NMEA 2000 data through a

Garmin GNT

The data fields on each page can be customized. Some data

fields are available only when streaming NMEA 2000 data.
