Compass: Automatically switches from an electronic compass
to a GPS compass when you are traveling at a higher rate of
speed for a period of time.
Calibrate Compass: Allows you to calibrate the compass if you
experience irregular compass behavior, for example, after
moving long distances or after extreme temperature changes
(Calibrating the Compass, page 3).
Trip Computer
The trip computer displays your current speed, average speed,
trip odometer, and other helpful statistics. You can customize
the trip computer layout, dashboard, and data fields.
Trip Computer Settings
From the trip computer, select MENU.
Reset: Resets all the trip computer values to zero. For accurate
information, reset the trip information before beginning a trip.
Change Data Fields: Customizes the trip computer data fields.
Change Dashboard: Changes the theme and information
displayed on the dashboard.
NOTE: Your customized settings are remembered by the
dashboard. Your settings are not lost when you change
profiles (Profiles, page 14).
Insert Page: Inserts an additional page of customizable data
fields.
TIP: You can use the arrow keys to scroll through the pages.

Altimeter
By default, the altimeter displays the elevation over the distance
traveled. You can customize altimeter settings (Altimeter
Settings, page 4). You can select any point on the plot to view
details about that point.
Altimeter Plot Settings
From the altimeter, select MENU.
Reset: Resets the altimeter data, including waypoint, track, and

settings.
Altimeter Settings
From the altimeter, select MENU > Altimeter Setup.
Auto Calibration: Automatically calibrates the altimeter each
time the device is turned on.
Barometer Mode: Variable Elevation allows the barometer to
measure changes in elevation while you are moving. Fixed
Elevation assumes the device is stationary at a fixed
elevation, so the barometric pressure should only change
due to weather.
Pressure Trending: Sets how the device records pressure
data. Save Always records all pressure data, which can be
helpful when you are watching for pressure fronts.
Plot Type: Records elevation changes over a period of time or
distance, records barometric pressure over a period of time,
or records ambient pressure changes over a period of time.
Calibrate Altimeter: Allows you to manually calibrate the
barometric altimeter (Calibrating the Barometric Altimeter,
page 4).
Calibrating the Barometric Altimeter
You can manually calibrate the barometric altimeter if you know
the correct elevation or the correct barometric pressure.
