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 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. See

page 13 for more information.

Turning On a Sensor Mode

The default sensor mode is on demand mode, which offers you quick access to compass, altimeter, barometer, or temperature data. You can also put the device in always on mode to display continuous sensor data.

Select the blue key.

Select Setup >

Compass

The device has a 3-axis compass with automatic calibration.

• Compass navigation (page 3)

• Compass settings (page 10)
