Garmin GPS III - Manual (Page 47)

Many features of the GPS III are menu driven. Each of the main pages has an
options menu, allowing you to custom tailor the corresponding page to your prefer-
ences and/or select special features which specifically relate to that page.
To display the Compass Page Options, press MENU (with the Compass
Page displayed).
The following options are available:
Big Numbers— allows you to select a different Compass Page layout, with a small-
er compass display and two user-selectable, large-character data fields. If ‘Big
Numbers’ is selected, ‘Big Compass’ will appear as an option instead.
To toggle between Compass Page formats, highlight ‘Big Numbers’ (or
‘Big Compass’) and press ENTER.
Change Fields— allows you to choose the data displayed on four user-selectable
data fields (two fields for the ‘Big Numbers’ option). There are twenty-five avail-
able data types, including Average (AVG) Speed, Bearing, Distance (DIST) to
Destination, ETA to Destination (DEST), Speed, Time to Destination (DEST),
Track, and a Trip Odometer. See page 85 for descriptions of data terms.
To change a data field:
1. Highlight ‘Change Fields’ and press ENTER.
2. Highlight the data field you wish to change and press ENTER.
3. Select the type of data you want to appear on this field and press ENTER.
Restore Defaults— resets all data fields to the factory default settings.
To restore the factory default settings, highlight ‘Restore Defaults’ and
press ENTER.
‘Big Numbers’ provides a
smaller compass display, a
large bearing pointer, and two
user-selectable, large charac-
ter data fields.
The ‘Change Fields’ option
allows you to select from a list
of available data types. Four
different items may be dis-
played on the Compass
Page—two when using the
‘Big Numbers’ option.
