Warnings and Precautions
The GPS system is operated by the United States government, which is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The system is subject to changes which could affect the accuracy and performance of all GPS equipment. Although the Garmin Rino 130 is a precision electronic NAVigation AID (NAVAID), any NAVAID can be misused or misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe.
The electronic chart is an aid to navigation and is designed to facilitate the use of authorized government charts, not replace them. Only offi cial government charts and notices to mariners contain all information needed for safe navigation—and, as always, the user is responsible for
Preliminary
their prudent use.
Use the Rino 130 at your own risk. To reduce the risk of unsafe operation, carefully review and understand all aspects of this Owner’s Manual—and thoroughly practice operation using the Demo mode prior to actual use. When in actual use, carefully compare indications from the Rino 130 to all available navigation sources, including the information from other NAVAIDs, visual sightings, charts, etc. For safety, always resolve any discrepancies before continuing navigation.

Important: Read this information before using your Rino.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals - Your wire-
less handheld radio is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.In August 1996, The Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless radios. Those guidelines are consistent with safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies: American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-1992; National Council on Radia­tion Protection and Measurement (NCRP) Report 86; International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996. Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of the relevant scientifi c literature. For example, over 130 scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities, government health agencies, and industry reviewed the available body of research to develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1).The design of your radio complies with the FCC guidelines (and those standards).
Antenna Care - Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifi ca­tions, or attachments could damage the radio and may violate FCC regulations. Do not use any radio that has a damaged antenna, because if it comes into contact with your skin, a minor burn can result.
Bectronic Devices - Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless radio.
Pacemakers - The Health Industry Manufacturers As­sociation recommends that a minimum separation of six inches (6”) be maintained between a handheld wireless radio and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemak­ers should ALWAYS keep the radio more than six inches from their pacemaker when the radio is turned ON should

Introduction
not carry the radio in a breast pocket should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference should turn the radio OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place
Hearing Aids - Some digital wireless radios may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices - If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtain­ing this information.
Turn your radio OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external IRF energy.
Vehicles - RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regard­ing your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities - Turn your radio OFF in any facility where posted notices so require.
Commercial Aircraft - Many commercial airlines prohibit the use of FRS radios on board. Switch OFF your radio before boarding an aircraft or check the airline rules.
Blasting Areas - To avoid interfering with blasting opera­tions, turn your radio OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres - Turn your radio OFF and do not remove your battery when you are in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. Obey all signs and instructions. Sparks from your battery in such areas could cause an explosion or fi re resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always clearly marked. They include fueling ares such as gasoline stations, below deck on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquefi ed petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as

The Rino has a total of 22 channels and 38 squelch codes to select from using the ‘Channel’ and ‘Code’ fi elds. Channels 1-14 are for FRS and 15-22 are for GMRS (disabled by default). To communicate with other Rino and FRS/GMRS users, you must be on the same Channel and Code. Garmin Rino units will work with 3rd party FRS/GMRS radios, provided the other radios use standard FRS/GMRS frequencies. A chart of the Rino frequencies may be found in Appendix H.
Squelch codes allow you to hear calls from only specifi c persons. Thirty-eight Squelch Codes (called Continuous Tone Controlled Squelch System or CTCSS) allows your Rino to ignore unwanted calls from other persons who are
using the same channel. Simply select the same squelch code (number) as selected by the other person(s) you desire to communicate with. NOTE: Squelch codes do
Channels & Codes
not cause your conversation to be private. They only allow you to fi lter out other users on the same chan­nel, so you only hear the radios you want to. Squelch Codes are not a scrambling system! Setting the code to 0 (squelch code off) will allow you to hear all activity on the selected channel, but you must be set to the same code as the other person(s) to transmit back. See Appendix H for a table listing all of the 38 Squelch Codes and their frequencies.
As you change the main channels, the Rino will remember the last channel/squelch code combination that you were using. For example, you may set the unit to Channel 5, squelch code 21, then change the main channel to 8 and that code to 2. If you change the chan­nel back to 5, the squelch code will change back to its previous setting of 21.
See Appendix A for more information on FRS/GMRS and its operational aspects.
To change the Channel and/or Code:
1. Using the CLICK STICK, highlight the ‘Channel’ or ‘Code’ fi eld and then press the CLICK STICK key IN. This will show a list of available channels/ codes.

The ‘Scan’ option allows you to scan through the available channels for voice activity. As the unit scans and receives a signal (or if you transmit), it will stop on that channel/code for a few seconds, then continue scan­ning. You may also use the Set Scanlist option to pick which channels/codes to scan. Since it can take time to

scan through the all the channels, selecting only specifi c channels/codes will decrease the scan time. Decreasing scan time will help prevent the chances of missing a transmis­sion. The Scanlist also has Option Menu choices to ‘Scan Current Codes’ or ‘Scan All Codes’. Choosing ‘Scan Current Codes’ will scan only the Channel and Code combination in memory
The ‘Monitor’ option lets you listen to a single channel for any activity, including static and weak voice signals. The Rino series will automatically squelch a frequency to fi lter out unwanted noise. Using the Monitor option will temporarily turn off the automatic squelch allowing you to hear the open channel. If you see a broken transmission symbol (see pg. 9), you may be receiving a signal too weak to trigger the unit’s squelch. You might choose this option if a signal is getting out of range or weak.

Setup Radio - Overview
The ‘Setup Radio’ option displays the Radio Setup Page. This page determines how the radio will function, changes audible alerts and enables you to adjust the radio operation to your needs.
Setup Radio - Options
The following options are available:
Call Tone - When the CALL button is pressed, an atten­tion tone is transmitted. This option allows you to choose from one of ten tones.
Roger Tone - When the TALK key is released, a tone is sent to signify the end of the transmission. This option allows you to choose from one of four tones, or set the tone to ‘Off’.
Ring Tone - When an incoming transmission is received, an attention tone will sound. This option allows you to choose from one of ten codes, or set the tone to Off. The Ring tone will not sound again until there has been 45 seconds of radio inactivity.
Vibrate - Choose from ‘On’ or ‘Off’ to have the unit vibrate when an incoming transmission is received. Once received, the unit will not vibrate again until there has been 45 seconds of radio inactivity.

to set the unit to ‘Ask When Detected’ before changing accessories.
VOX Level - Controls the sensitivity level of any Voice Operated Transmission (VOX) accessory. VOX accessories allow you to use the unit hands-free. A lower VOX setting is recommended for quiet environments while a higher VOX setting should be used in noisy environments. Setting the VOX level to 5 is recommended for most environments, but it may be necessary to adjust the level to achieve the desired voice trigger level. You will hear yourself talking in the headset when transmitting success­fully using VOX.
Send Location - This option enables/disables the peer­to-peer positioning feature. See page 11 for more on this feature.
GMRS Radio - Use this option to turn On/Off GMRS channels 15-22. Peer-to-peer transmissions are not avail­able on GMRS channels. See page 2 for more information on using GMRS channels.
Scramble - This feature adds a level of security to your conversations with other Rino 130 users only. When On, the voice transmission will sound garbled to other non­scrambled Rinos, as well as other 3rd party radios. When set to On, in order for peer-to-peer and Send Location (see pg. 11) features to work, the receiving radio must also have Scramble enabled.

Informational Picture - Overview
The Informational Picture on the bottom half of screen features Garmin’s Mr. Mark Waypoint to show current GPS & radio status and radio actions. As you operate the unit, the graphics will change depending on what actions you are taking or the unit settings.
Four satellites are shown on at the top of the picture along with descriptive text to indicate GPS reception status. As the unit collects satellite information, the satel­lite symbols will fl ash alternately until all four are steady indicating a 3D position fi x. The more satellites that are steady, the better your position fi x.
As radio signals come in, signal wave symbols will display to the left of Mark Waypoint. Fragmented (or broken) signal symbols are shown to indicate activity on that channel. Audio remains muted because the incoming signal does not match the squelch code your unit is set to.
The Mark Waypoint fi gure will display several dif­ferent icons, depending on what you are doing. A radio in Mark’s hand indicates the radio is ready to use. A fl ag in his other hand means the unit is ready to transmit its position (GPS must be On to use this feature.) As you transmit, you will see radio waves around Mark’s radio. When your peer-to-peer transmission is sent, Mark will raise the fl ag in his hand. As positions are received, a fl ag will briefl y appear on top of the hill to the left.

Peer-to-Peer - Overview
The Rino’s most unique feature is being able to send
it’s location to another Rino, this is called Peer-to-Peer po­sitioning. With peer-to-peer enabled (see pg. 8) and you have a GPS position (see pg. 48), whenever you press and release either the CALL key or the TALK key, the Rino will automatically send out its location. This information will be available to all other Rino users that are monitor­ing the same channel and code. This feature allows you to track the movement of other Rino users and even navigate to their location. Locations may only be sent once
every 10 seconds, due to FCC restrictions.
To transmit your location to other Rino
users:
1. With ‘Send Location’ enabled (see pg. 8), press and release either the TALK or CALL buttons. You will see a fl ag on the top Status Bar or in Mark’s hand when the unit is ready to transmit its position.
New Contact Page - Overview
The fi rst time that a signal is received from another Rino user, a ‘New Contact’ page will be displayed. From the New Contact page you can show their location on your map, ‘Goto’ their location, or select ‘OK’ to add them to your contact list. The Rino can manage up to 50 contacts at any time. Each time that you receive a signal from a contact, your map will be updated showing their new position and a Track Log of their movement will be created and shown on your map (see pg. 45). After a contact has been established, a “<contact name> Updated” message will briefl y appear at the bottom of your display each time the contact updates. You may also review each contact’s information such as Direction, Elevation, Time­stamp, Location and enter Notes up to 30 characters.
All contacts are listed on a Contact List Page and also displayed in the Contact Bar on the Map Page (see pg.
14). Contacts behave like and count towards the 500 maximum waypoint total.

Send Location - Overview
Another feature is the ability to send a specifi c location to other Rino users. This can come in handy if you are trying to round-up the group, or just want to meet at a specifi c location. You may send any point found from the Find ‘N Go menu. If the unit needs to wait until 10 seconds have elapsed since the last position transmission, a “Waiting to send location...” message will appear until the unit is able to transmit. If a location is sent more than once, a number will automatically be added to the end of the name (CAMP, CAMP 1, CAMP 2, etc.).
To send a location:
1. Press the CLICK STICK IN and hold it until the Shortcuts Menu is displayed.
2. Highlight “‘Find ‘N’ Go’” and press the CLICK STICK IN.

Using the Pan Map Option
The Map Page pan function allows you to display an arrow used to point at and identify items on the map, and to move the map in order to view areas beyond the current viewing area on the display.
The map panning function is activated from the Op­tions Menu on the Map Page. The CLICK STICK moves the panning arrow (also referred to as the map pointer) in the desired direction on the map page. If the arrow moves to the edge of the map display, the map also moves to reveal more area and a busy hourglass appears by the cursor while the data is drawn on the screen.
Whenever the panning arrow is placed on a map item, the name of that item is highlighted. This feature applies to waypoints, roads, lakes, rivers...nearly everything that is displayed.
Pressing the CLICK STICK marks the arrow location or displays the map item information page. An Options Menu allows you to: send the location of that item, project a waypoint from it, save it as a waypoint, set a proximity circle around it, add it to a route, or view the sun and moon phase or view hunt and fi sh information from it. On-screen buttons at the bottom of the page al­low you to Goto the map item, display it on the map or to select ‘OK’ and return to the Map Page.
When using the panning arrow, pressing and holding IN on the CLICK STICK, then choosing ‘Find ‘N Go’ displays items with the panning arrow (map pointer) lo­cation used as a reference point for nearest items instead of your current location. Press the PAGE button to return to the Main Map Page.
