Select Settings > My Vessel > Keel Offset.

Select

based on the location of the transducer.

Enter the distance measured in step 1.

Setting the Water Temperature Offset

Before you can set the water temperature offset, you must have

a NMEA 0183 water-temperature sensor or a temperature-

capable transducer to measure water temperature.

The temperature offset compensates for the temperature

reading from a temperature sensor.

Measure the water temperature using the temperature

sensor or temperature-capable transducer that is connected

to the chartplotter.

Measure the water temperature using a different temperature

sensor or a thermometer that is known to be accurate.

Subtract the water temperature measured in step 1 from the

water temperature measured in step 2.

This is the temperature offset. Enter this value in step 5 as a

positive number if the sensor connected to the chartplotter

measures the water temperature as being colder than it

actually is. Enter this value in step 5 as a negative number if

the sensor connected to the chartplotter measures the water

temperature as being warmer than it actually is.

Select Settings > My Vessel > Temperature Offset.

Enter the temperature offset calculated in step 3.

Calibrating a Water Speed Device

If you have a speed-sensing transducer connected to the

chartplotter, you can calibrate that speed-sensing device to

improve the accuracy of water-speed data displayed by the

chartplotter.

Select Settings > My Vessel > Calibrate Water Speed.

Follow the on-screen instructions.

If the boat is not moving fast enough or the speed sensor is

not registering a speed, a message appears.

Select OK, and safely increase the boat speed.

If the message appears again, stop the boat, and ensure the

speed-sensor wheel is not stuck.

If the wheel turns freely, check the cable connections.

If you continue to get the message, contact Garmin product

support.

Other Vessels Settings

When your compatible chartplotter is connected to an AIS

device or VHF radio, you can set up how other vessels are

displayed on the chartplotter.

Chartplotter Data Management

Copying Waypoints, Routes, and Tracks to a

Chartplotter

Before you can copy data to the chartplotter, you must have the

latest version of MapSource ® or HomePort™ software

programs loaded on your computer and a memory card installed

in the chartplotter.

Select an option:

• Copy the data from HomePort to the prepared memory

card.

For more information, see the HomePort help file.

• Copy the data from MapSource to the prepared memory

card.

For more information, see the MapSource help file.

Copying Data from a Memory Card

Insert a memory card into a card slot.

Select Info > User Data > Data Transfer > Card.

If necessary, select the memory card to copy data to.

Select an option:

• To transfer data from the memory card to the chartplotter

and combine it with existing user data, select Merge from

Card.

• To transfer data from the memory card to the chartplotter

and overwrite existing user data, select Replace from

Card.

Select the file name.

Copying Waypoints, Routes, and Tracks to a

Memory Card

Insert a memory card into the card slot.

Select Info > User Data > Data Transfer > Card > Save to

Card.

If necessary, select the memory card to copy data to.

Select an option:

• To create a new file, select Add New File, and enter a

name. The file name is saved with an .adm extension.

• To add the information to an existing file, select the file

from the list.
