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.
Marine Network
The Marine Network allows you to share data from Garmin
peripheral devices with the chartplotters quickly and easily. You
can connect a chartplotter to the Marine Network to receive data
from and share data with other devices and chartplotters that
are compatible with the Marine Network.
Select Settings > Communications > Marine Network.
Setting Alarms
Navigation Alarms
Select Settings > Alarms > Navigation.
Arrival: Sets an alarm to sound when you are within a specified
distance or time from a turn or a destination.
Anchor Drag: Sets an alarm to sound when you exceed a
specified drift distance while anchored.
Off Course: Sets an alarm to sound when you are off course by
a specified distance.
Setting the Anchor Drag Alarm
You can set an alarm to sound if you have moved more than an
allowable distance. This is very useful when anchoring
overnight.
1
Select Settings > Alarms > Navigation > Anchor Drag.
2
Select Alarm to turn on the alarm.
3
Select Set Radius, and select a distance on the chart.
4
Select BACK.
System Alarms
Clock: Sets an alarm clock.
Unit Voltage: Sets an alarm to sound when the battery reaches
a specified low voltage.
GPS Accuracy: Sets an alarm to sound when the GPS location
accuracy falls outside the user-defined value.
Sonar Alarm Settings
NOTE: Some settings require external accessories.
Select Settings > Alarms > Sonar.
Shallow Water: Sets an alarm to sound when the depth is less
than the specified value.
Deep Water: Sets an alarm to sound when the depth is greater
than the specified value.
Water Temp.: Sets an alarm to sound when the transducer
reports a temperature that is 2°F (1.1°C) above or below the
specified temperature.
Contour: Sets an alarm to sound when the transducer detects a
suspended target within the specified depth from the surface
of the water and from the bottom.
Fish: Sets an alarm to sound when the device detects a
suspended target.
•
sets the alarm to sound when fish of all sizes are
detected.
•
sets the alarm to sound only when medium or large
fish are detected.
•
sets the alarm to sound only when large fish are
detected.

Setting Weather Alarms
Before you can set weather alarms, you must have a compatible
chartplotter connected to a weather device, such as a GXM
device, and have a valid weather subscription.
1
Select Settings > Alarms > Weather Alarms.
2
Turn on alarms for specific weather events.
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.
My Vessel Settings
NOTE: Some settings and options require additional charts or
hardware.
Select Settings > My Vessel.
Depth and Anchoring: Allows you to enter information about
the keel
(Setting the Keel Offset, page
Temp. Offset: Allows you to set an offset value to compensate
for the water temperature reading from a NMEA 0183 water-
temperature sensor or a temperature-capable transducer
(Setting the Water Temperature Offset, page
Calibrate Water Speed: Calibrates the speed-sensing
transducer or sensor
(Calibrating a Water Speed Device,
page
45).
Fuel Capacity: Sets the combined fuel capacity of all the fuel
tanks on your vessel
(Setting the Fuel Capacity of the Vessel,
page
32).
Vessel Type: Enables some chartplotter features based on the
boat type.
CZone™: Sets the digital switching circuits.
System Profiles: Allows you to save your system profile to a
memory card and import system profile settings from a
memory card. This can be helpful for charter or fleet vessels,
and for sharing your setup information with a friend.
Setting the Keel Offset
You can enter a keel offset to compensate the surface reading
for the depth of a keel, making it possible to measure depth from
the bottom of the keel instead of from the transducer location.
Enter a positive number to offset for a keel. You can enter a
negative number to compensate for a large vessel that may
draw several feet of water.
1
Complete an action, based on the location of the transducer:
• If the transducer is installed at the water line
the distance from the transducer location to the keel of the
boat. Enter this value in steps 3 and 4 as a positive
number.
• If the transducer is installed at the bottom of the keel
measure the distance from the transducer to the water
line. Enter this value in steps 3 and 4 as a negative
number.
