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.
Changing Profiles
When you change activities, you can quickly change the setup
of the device to suit the activity by changing the profile.
1 Select the blue key.
2 Select Profiles.
3 Select a profile.
The profile you selected is now the active profile. Any changes
you make are saved to the active profile.
Viewing the Data Pages
Customizable data pages allow you to quickly access real-time
data for the compass, barometer, and temperature sensors.
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.
