Satellite Settings
You can change the satellite settings to customize the satellite systems used for each activity. For more
information about satellite systems, go to garmin.com/aboutGPS.
Hold MENU, select Activities & Apps, select an activity, select the activity settings, and select Satellites.
NOTE: This feature is not available for all activities.
Off: Disables satellite systems for the activity.
Use Default: Enables the watch to use the default system setting for satellites
GPS Only: Enables the GPS satellite system.
All Systems: Enables multiple satellite systems. Using multiple satellite systems together offers increased
performance in challenging environments and faster position acquisition than using GPS only. However,
using multiple systems can reduce battery life more quickly than using GPS only.
All + Multi-Band: Enables multiple satellite systems on multiple frequency bands. Multi-band systems use
multiple frequency bands and allow for more consistent track logs, improved positioning, improved multi-
path errors, and fewer atmospheric errors when using the watch in challenging environments.
NOTE: Not available for all watch models.
Auto Select: Enables the watch to use SatIQ
based on your environment. The Auto Select setting offers the best positioning accuracy while still
prioritizing battery life.
NOTE: Not available for all watch models.
UltraTrac: Records track points and sensor data less frequently. Enabling the UltraTrac feature increases
battery life but decreases the quality of recorded activities. You should use the UltraTrac feature for activities
that demand longer battery life and for which frequent sensor data updates are less important.
The Applied Ballistics feature is intended to provide accurate elevation and windage solutions based on gun and
bullet profiles and measurements of current conditions only. Depending on your environment, conditions may
change rapidly. Changes in environmental conditions, like wind gusts or downrange winds, may have an effect
on the accuracy of your shot. Elevation and windage solutions are suggestions only based upon your input into
the feature. Take readings often and carefully, and allow the readings to stabilize after significant changes in
environmental conditions. Always allow a margin of safety for changing conditions and reading errors.
Always understand your target and what lies beyond your target before taking a shot. Failure to account for your
shooting environment could cause property damage, injury, or death.
NOTE: This feature is available only on the tactix 7 Pro Ballistics device.
The Applied Ballistics feature offers customized aiming solutions for long-range shooting based on your
rifle characteristics, bullet characteristics, and various environmental conditions. You can enter parameters
including wind, temperature, humidity, range, and firing direction.
This feature provides the information you need to fire long-range projectiles, including elevation holdover,
windage, and time of flight. It also includes custom drag models for your bullet type. Go to
.com
for more details about this feature. See the
of the terms and data fields.
AB Synapse - Garmin App
The AB Synapse - Garmin app allows you to manage ballistic profiles on your tactix 7 Pro Ballistics watch. You
can also upgrade to the ABX ballistic solver for your watch, which offers added accuracy at longer ranges. You
can download the AB Synapse - Garmin app from the app store on your phone.
