Profiles Profiles are a collection of settings that optimize your device based on how you are using it. For example, the settings and views are different when you use the device for hunting than when geocaching. When you are using a profile and you change settings, such as data fields or units of measurement, the changes are saved automatically as part of the profile. Creating a Custom Profile You can customize your settings and data fields for a particular activity or trip. 1 From the main menu, select Tools > Profile Change. 2 Select MENU > Setup Profiles > Create Profile > OK. 3 Customize the settings as necessary. 4 Customize the data fields as necessary. Any changes you make to the settings, dashboards, and data fields are automatically saved to the active profile.
