gPsMAP 2106/2110
the GPSMAP 2206/2210 unit does not rely on the LORAN signal for navigation,
it can reference a different GRI chain or secondary stations and still navigate to
the location stored in memory. The LORAN Position Format field is located on
the Units sub tab on the Main Menu—System tab. The Loran TD Setup window
contains the fields to select the LORAN Chain Number, Primary and Secondary
Stations, and TD Offsets.
To set up LORAN TD from the Main Menu:
1. Using the ROCKER, highlight the System tab, press right on the
ROCKER to highlight the Units sub tab. Highlight the Position Format
field, and press ENTER.
2. Highlight Loran TD, and press ENTER, and then highlight the Setup
button to the right, and press ENTER again.
3. To change the settings of any of the five fields, highlight the field, press
ENTER, select the setting you want, and press ENTER again.
If the active GRI Chain, secondary stations, or offsets were changed since the
waypoint was created, the waypoint now references the active GRI-chain and
secondary stations and adjusts the TD coordinates accordingly. Remember that
the GPS is not relying on the LORAN signal for navigation and actually converts
the TD coordinate to a useful latitude/longitude coordinate before storing the
waypoint to memory or using it for navigation. Because of this, the unit can
navigate to a TD coordinate anywhere in the world.
For more information on LORAN TDs, you can download Garmin’s Loran TD
Position Format Handbook from the Garmin Web site.
Caring for the GPSMAP 2206/2210
The GPSMAP 2206/2210 case is constructed of high-quality materials and does
not require user maintenance except cleaning.
Cleaning the Case
Clean the unit’s outer casing (except for the screen) using a cloth dampened with
a mild detergent solution. Wipe dry. Avoid chemical cleaners and solvents that
may damage plastic components.
Cleaning the Screen
The GPSMAP 2206/2210 lens is coated with a special anti-reflective coating
that is sensitive to skin oils, waxes, and abrasive cleaners. Cleaners containing
ammonia, alcohol, abrasives, or anti-grease detergents will harm the anti-
reflective coating. It is important to clean the lens using an eyeglass lens cleaner
that is specified as safe for anti-reflective coatings and a clean, lint-free cloth.
Storage
Do not store the GPSMAP 2206/2210 where prolonged exposure to extreme
temperatures may occur (such as in the trunk of a car) because permanent damage
may result. User information, such as waypoints and routes, are retained in the
unit’s memory without the need for external power. It is always a good practice
to back up important user data by manually recording it, loading it to a computer
(transferring it to MapSource), or storing it on a data card.
Water Immersion
The GPSMAP 2206/2210 is waterproof to IEC Standard 60529 IPX7. It can
withstand immersion in 1 meter of water for 30 minutes. Prolonged submersion
can cause damage to the unit. After submersion, be certain to wipe and air dry the
unit before reuse.
