5 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. 1 Select Settings > My Vessel > Calibrate Water Speed. 2 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. 3 Select OK, and safely increase the boat speed. 4 If the message appears again, stop the boat, and ensure the speed-sensor wheel is not stuck. 5 If the wheel turns freely, check the cable connections. 6 If you continue to get the message, contact Garmin product support. Setting the Fuel Capacity of the Vessel 1 Select Settings > My Vessel > Fuel Capacity. 2 Enter the combined total capacity of the fuel tanks. Synchronizing the Fuel Data with the Actual Vessel Fuel You can synchronize the fuel levels in the chartplotter with the actual fuel in the vessel when you add fuel to your vessel. 1 Select Gauges > Engine > MENU. 2 Select an option: • After you have filled up all the fuel tanks on the vessel, select Fill Up All Tanks. The fuel level is reset to maximum capacity. • After you have added less than a full tank of fuel, select Add Fuel to Boat, and enter the amount added. • To specify the total fuel in the vessel tanks, select Set Total Fuel Onboard, and enter the total amount of fuel in the tanks. Customizing Engine Gauge and Fuel Gauge Limits You can configure the upper and lower limits and the range of desired standard operation of a gauge.

Marine Network: Allows you to view the devices with which you are sharing maps, sonar, or radar. Not available on all chartplotter models. NOTE: You can only view networked data on a model that supports that data. For example, you cannot view networked radar on model that does not support radar. Wi-Fi Network: Allows you set up the Wi‑Fi network (Setting Up the Wi‑Fi Wireless Network, page 38). NMEA 0183 The chartplotters support the NMEA 0183 standard, which is used to connect various NMEA 0183 devices, such as VHF radios, NMEA instruments, autopilots, wind sensors, and heading sensors. To connect the chartplotter to optional NMEA 0183 devices, see the chartplotter installation instructions. The approved NMEA 0183 sentences for the chartplotter are GPAPB, GPBOD, GPBWC, GPGGA, GPGLL, GPGSA, GPGSV, GPRMB, GPRMC, GPRTE, GPVTG, GPWPL, GPXTE, and Garmin proprietary sentences PGRME, PGRMM, and PGRMZ. This chartplotter also includes support for the WPL sentence, DSC, and sonar NMEA 0183 input with support for the DPT (depth) or DBT, MTW (water temperature), and VHW (water temperature, speed, and heading) sentences. NMEA 0183 Settings Select Settings > Communications > NMEA 0183 Setup. Sounder: Enables NMEA 0183 output sentences for the sounder (if applicable). Route: Enables NMEA 0183 output sentences for routes. System: Enables NMEA 0183 output sentences for system information. Garmin: Enables NMEA 0183 output sentences for Garmin proprietary sentences. Posn Precision: Adjusts the number of digits to the right of the decimal point for transmission of NMEA output. Waypoint IDs: Sets the device to transmit waypoint names or numbers via NMEA 0183 while navigating. Using numbers may resolve compatibility issues with older NMEA 0183 autopilots. Diagnostics: Displays NMEA 0183 diagnostic information. Defaults: Restores the NMEA 0183 settings to the original factory defaults. NMEA 2000 Settings Select Settings > Communications > NMEA 2000 Setup. Device List: Displays the devices connected to the network. Label Devices: Changes the labels for available connected devices. Naming Devices and Sensors on the Network You can name devices and sensors connected to the Garmin Marine Network and the NMEA 2000 network. 1 Select Settings > Communications. 2 Select Marine Network or NMEA 2000 Setup > Device List. 3 Select a device from the list on the left. 4 Select Change Name. 5 Enter the name, and select Done. 37
