Setting the Fuel Alarm Before you can set a fuel level alarm, a compatible fuel flow sensor must be connected to the chartplotter. You can set an alarm to sound when the total amount of remaining onboard fuel reaches the level you specify. 1 Select Settings > Alarms > Fuel > Set Total Fuel Onboard > On. 2 Enter the remaining amount of fuel that triggers the alarm, and select Done. Units Settings Select Settings > Units. System Units: Sets the unit format for the device. Variance: Sets the magnetic declination, the angle between magnetic north and true north, for your present location. North Reference: Sets the direction references used in calculating heading information. True sets geographic north as the north reference. Grid sets grid north as the north reference (000º). Magnetic sets the magnetic north as the north reference. Position Format: Sets the position format in which a given location reading appears. Do not change this setting unless you are using a map or chart that specifies a different position format. Map Datum: Sets the coordinate system on which the map is structured. Do not change this setting unless you are using a map or chart that specifies a different map datum. Pressure Reference Time: Sets the reference time used to calculate the barometer trend. The trend is indicated in the barometer field. Time Format: Sets a 12-hour, 24-hour, or UTC time format. Time Zone: Sets the time zone, or allows automatic selection based on GPS location. Navigation Settings NOTE: Some settings and options require additional charts or hardware. Select Settings > Navigation. Route Labels: Sets the type of labels shown with route turns on the map. Auto Guidance: Sets the parameters the chartplotter uses when calculating an Auto Guidance path, when you are using some premium maps. Turn Transition Activ.: Sets the turn transition to be calculated based on time or distance. Turn Transition Time: Sets how many minutes before the turn that you transition to it as the next leg, when Time is selected for the Turn Transition Activ. setting. You can raise this value to help improve the accuracy of the autopilot when navigating a route or an Auto Guidance path with many frequent turns or at higher speeds. For straighter routes or slower speeds, lowering this value can improve autopilot accuracy. Turn Transition Dist.: Sets how far before the turn that you transition to it as the next leg, when Distance is selected for the Turn Transition Activ. setting. You can raise this value to help improve the accuracy of the autopilot when navigating a route or an Auto Guidance path with many frequent turns or at higher speeds. For straighter routes or slower speeds, lowering this value can improve autopilot accuracy. Route Start: Selects a starting point for route navigation. Other Vessel 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. Select Settings > Other Vessels. AIS: Enables and disables AIS signal reception. DSC: Enables and disables digital selective calling (DSC). AIS Alarm: Sets the collision alarm (Setting the Safe-Zone Collision Alarm, page 8 and Enabling AIS Transmission Test Alerts, page 8). Restoring the Original Chartplotter Factory Settings NOTE: This affects all devices on the network. 1 Select Settings > System > System Information > Reset. 2 Select an option: • To reset the device settings to the factory default values, select Reset Default Settings. This restores the default configuration settings, but does not remove saved user data, maps, or software updates. • To clear saved data, such as waypoints and routes, select Delete User Data. This does not affect maps or software updates. • To clear saved data and reset device settings to the factory default values, disconnect the chartplotter from the Garmin Marine Network, and select Delete Data and Reset Settings. This does not affect maps or software updates. Sharing and Managing User Data You can share data between compatible devices. • You can share and manage user data using a memory card. You must have a memory card installed in the device. This device supports up to a 32 GB memory card, formatted to FAT32. • You can share data if two compatible devices are connected using the blue and brown wires on the power cable or using the User Data Sharing Cable (Connecting to a Garmin Device to Share User Data, page 39). Connecting to a Garmin Device to Share User Data NOTE: This feature is not available on ECHOMAP Plus 70/90 devices. The blue and brown wires on those devices can connect to NMEA 0183 devices only. You can connect the ECHOMAP Plus 40/60 device to a compatible Garmin device to share user data, such as waypoints. If the devices are mounted near each other, you can connect the blue and brown wires. If the devices are mounted too far apart for the wires to reach, you can connect the devices using a User Data Sharing Cable (010-12234-06). 1 Make sure both devices are connected to the same ground. 2 Complete an action: • If the devices are mounted near each other, connect the blue wire from the first device to the brown wire of the second, and connect the brown wire from the first device to the blue wire of the second. • If the devices are not mounted near each other, obtain a User Data Sharing Cable (010-12234-06), and connect the devices following the instructions included with the cable (User Data Sharing Cable Wiring Diagram, page 40). 3 On both devices, select Nav Info > Manage Data > User Data Sharing. User data is shared between the connected devices. If you select Clear User Data, data is removed from both connected devices. Sharing and Managing User Data 39
