Sensors and GPS Data
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 Page Flows
By default, the time, compass, barometer, and temperature
pages appear in all data page flows. The organization and
appearance of other data pages depends on these conditions.
• The active profile.
• Whether you are tracking, navigating, or viewing only 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
(page 14).
Turning On a Sensor Mode

quick access to compass, altimeter, barometer, or temperature
data. You can also put the device in always on mode to display
continuous sensor data.

Calibrating the Compass
NOTICE
Calibrate the electronic compass outdoors. To improve heading
accuracy, do not stand near objects that influence magnetic
fields, such as vehicles, buildings, and overhead power lines.
Your device was already calibrated at the factory, and the
device uses automatic calibration by default. If you experience
irregular compass behavior, for example, after moving long
distances or after extreme temperature changes, you can
manually calibrate the compass.

Select Setup > Sensors > Compass > Calibrate > Start.

calibrate the barometric altimeter if you know the correct
elevation or the correct barometric pressure.

The device may need a clear view of the sky to acquire satellite
signals. The time and date are set automatically based on the
GPS position. To adjust the time settings, see page 8.
