Introduction

Warnings and Cautions

WARNING: The GPS system is operated by the United States government, which is solely responsible

for its accuracy and maintenance. The system is subject to changes which could affect the accuracy and

performance of all GPS equipment. Although the Garmin GPSMAP 3006C/3010C is a precision electronic

NAVigation AID (NAVAID), any NAVAID can be misused or misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe.

CAUTION: The electronic chart is an aid to navigation and is designed to facilitate the use of autho-

rized government charts, not replace them. Only ofﬁ cial government charts and notices to mariners con-

tain all information needed for safe navigation and, as always, the user is responsible for their prudent use.

CAUTION: Use the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C at your own risk. To reduce the risk of unsafe operation,

carefully review and understand all aspects of this Owner’s Manual, and thoroughly practice operation

using the simulator mode prior to actual use. When in actual use, carefully compare indications from

the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C to all available navigation sources, including the information from other

NAVAIDs, visual sightings, charts, etc. For safety, always resolve any discrepancies before continuing

navigation.

CAUTION: IT IS THE USER’S RESPONSIBILITY TO USE THIS PRODUCT PRUDENTLY. THIS

PRODUCT IS INTENDED TO BE USED ONLY AS A NAVIGATIONAL AID AND MUST NOT BE USED

FOR ANY PURPOSE REQUIRING PRECISE MEASUREMENT OF DIRECTION, DISTANCE, LOCATION,

OR TOPOGRAPHY.

MAP DATA INFORMATION: One of the goals of Garmin is to provide customers with the most

complete and accurate cartography that is available to us at a reasonable cost. We use a combination of

governmental and private data sources, which we identify (as required) in product literature and copyright

messages displayed to the consumer. Virtually all data sources contain inaccurate or incomplete data to

some degree. This is particularly true outside the United States, where complete and accurate digital data

is either not available or prohibitively expensive.

WARNING: This product, its packaging, and its components contain chemicals known to the State

of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or reproductive harm. This Notice is being provided in accor-

dance with California’s Proposition 65. If you have any questions or would like additional information,

please refer to our web site at http://www.garmin.com/prop65.

Understanding the Features

The GPSMAP 3006C/3010C unit’s advanced keypad system is designed to allow quick, convenient

selection of navigation options and data entry. As you progress through this Owner’s Manual, you will

often be directed to press a speciﬁ c key or highlight a ﬁ eld on the screen. When you are directed to press

a key, you should press and quickly release the key. If the key needs to be held down for a period of time

to activate a secondary function, the instructions will tell you to do so. The position of the highlight is

controlled by the ARROW KEYPAD. When a ﬁ eld is selected on the screen, it is highlighted in yellow.

The following features are referred to throughout this manual.

<KEYPAD KEY> - Keypress commands appear in upper case BOLD. Press the corresponding key on

the unit’s keypad. Example ENTER/MARK, PAGE, FCTN, etc.

Cursor – The highlighted area on the screen that can be moved UP/DOWN/LEFT/RIGHT with the

ARROW KEYPAD to select individual ﬁ elds. Moving the cursor to a given location allows you to begin

data entry or scroll through a list. A yellow highlight indicates the location of the cursor.

Field – The location on a page where data or an option may be entered and displayed. The cursor is

placed on a ﬁ eld using the ARROW KEYPAD to begin data entry or selection of options.

Button (On-Screen) – Similar to “ﬁ eld.” Use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight a button and press

ENTER to select the action that corresponds to the button.

Scroll Bar – When viewing a list of items too long to display on the screen, a scroll bar appears along

the right side of the list. The position of the scroll bar indicates which portion of the list is currently dis-

played. The height of the scroll bar indicates the number of items in the list. To scroll through a list, press

UP or DOWN on the ARROW KEYPAD.

Default – A system selection format built into the unit’s memory that is followed unless you change

a setting. For example, the default setting for speed readings is nautical miles per hour (knots), but may

be changed to kilometers or miles per hour. Once a setting is changed, the new setting is retained until

another change is made or a ‘Restore Default’ menu option is selected.

Selecting Options

How To Select Options

You can select and activate options and enter data to customize the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C to ﬁ t your

requirements. You can use the ENTER and DATA ENTRY keys, and the ARROW KEYPAD to select

options, enter names and numbers in data ﬁ elds, activate your selections, or quickly select an option.

To select and activate an option using the ENTER key and ARROW KEYPAD:

1. Press ADJ/MENU to display the options menu for the selected function (see page 21). The options menu

displays a list of optional features which are speciﬁ c for that particular function. Selecting any feature on

the list of options requires movement of the cursor, which is called “highlighting”, selecting or choosing an

item in a list or a ﬁ eld (box) on a page.

2. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to move the cursor (highlight) up and down a list or up, down, and sideways on

menus.

3. Once you have moved to the desired selection, press ENTER to either activate the feature or RIGHT on the

ARROW KEYPAD to display a sub-menu or list if more feature options exist. Repeat this process to select

an option from the list or press the QUIT key to return to the previous setting.

The QUIT key moves backwards through these steps back to the main page you started on.

To select and activate an option button:

When moving about a page with option buttons, like the waypoint ‘Review’ page, you observe functions

such as ‘Add To Route’, ‘Move Wpt’, ‘Delete’ and ’OK’. To activate the option, highlight the desired button

and press ENTER.

To select and activate an option using DATA ENTRY shortcut keys:

1. Press ADJ/MENU to display the options menu for the current page or selected function (see page 21). The

options menu displays a list of optional features which are speciﬁ c for that particular function.

2. To quickly select any feature on the list of options, press the corresponding DATA ENTRY number key. For

numbers 10 and higher, press the ﬁ rst digit, then press the second digit within one second. Shortcut keys

always use the same corresponding number for easy operation.

Entering Data

How To Enter Data

Naming a waypoint or placing any sort of data that has not been predeﬁ ned requires the use of the

ARROW KEYPAD, ENTER, and/or DATA ENTRY keys.

To enter a name or number in a data ﬁ eld:

1. Once you have accessed a page with programmable data ﬁ elds (e.g. ‘ Waypoint Edit’) you can use the

ARROW KEYPAD to move the cursor (Highlight) to ﬁ elds on the page. Use the UP/DOWN arrows to move

up or down and the LEFT/RIGHT arrows to move sideways.

2. Pressing ENTER with the ﬁ eld highlighted begins the process for entering data in the form of alphanumeric

characters.

3. Each DATA ENTRY key has multiple characters assigned to it. Pressing the key one time selects the ﬁ rst

character, twice selects the second character, three times the third character, and four times selects the

number assigned to the key. The only DATA ENTRY key that does not have at least four characters is the

“+, -, 0” key.

When entering data using the DATA ENTRY keys, press the key repeatedly until the correct character is

selected, then pause brieﬂ y or press the next letter/number from a different key. The unit automatically

moves the cursor to the next placeholder.

Use the ARROW KEYPAD UP/DOWN arrows to cycle through numbers 0 to 9, plus/minus symbols, blank

space, and the alphabet. Pressing and releasing the keypad moves you character by character through the

list. Pressing and holding the keypad moves you rapidly through the list.

4. Use the ARROW KEYPAD LEFT/RIGHT arrows to manually move to the next character on the line or back-

wards to edit characters. Press LEFT on the ARROW KEYPAD from the ﬁ rst character position to clear the

entire ﬁ eld. If there are more than two lines of data, keep pressing to the RIGHT to drop down to the next

line.

5. When data entry is completed press ENTER to accept data, then move to the next programmable ﬁ eld. Not

all data ﬁ elds are programmable, such as the date and time. When moving about a page with these ﬁ elds,

the cursor skips over them.

Pressing UP or DOWN

on the ARROW KEYPAD

or using the DATA

ENTRY keys changes

numbers and letters.

Pressing LEFT or RIGHT

on the ARROW KEYPAD

moves the cursor along

the line or to the next

line.

Initializing the Receiver

The ﬁ rst time you power up your new GPSMAP 3006C/3010C MFD and GPS 17 receiver, the receiver

must be given an opportunity to collect satellite data and establish its present position. To ensure proper

initialization, the GPS 17 is shipped from the factory in AutoLocate mode, which allows the receiver to

“ﬁ nd itself” anywhere in the world. The MFD usually provides a position ﬁ x within a few minutes.

Before you initialize, make sure the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C unit and GPS 17 antenna have been cor-

rectly installed on your vessel according to the instructions in the Installation Guide. The antenna needs a

clear and unobstructed view of the sky to receive satellite signals.

To turn the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C on:

Press and hold the POWER key until the display comes on, then release the POWER key.

An Introduction page appears, displaying unit information, Network Connections (attached devices)

and important information regarding the proper use of the unit. It takes a few seconds for the MFD to

search for attached devices. Once the search is complete, the “I Agree” button highlights in yellow. After

reading the Introduction, press the ENTER key if you agree.

Next, you see the ﬁ rst of the Main Pages (see page 18), which is the Map Page. The GPSMAP 3006C/

3010C now begins searching for the GPS satellites. The ﬁ rst time that the unit acquires satellites take sev-

eral minutes. Afterwards, acquisition times are quicker during normal use. The GPS Status icon on the left

side of the Status Bar (see also page 17) shows the progress of the satellite acquisition process. The GPS

icon status colors are:

Red— Acquiring Satellites/ Lost Satellite Reception

Orange— Ready For Navigation/ Ready For Navigation with WAAS

Gray— Lost GPS connection. (Check GPS antenna wiring connections.)

A more detailed visual reference of the satellite acquisition, GPS receiver status, and accuracy is also

available from the GPS tab on the Main Menu.

To view the GPS tab information:

1. Press and hold ADJ/MENU for two seconds, then release. The Main Menu appears.

2. If not already highlighted, use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight the ‘GPS’ tab.

Initializing the Receiver/

Status Bar

When viewing the GPS Info, a signal strength bar for each satellite in view appears on the right of the

page, with the appropriate satellite number under each bar. The progress of satellite acquisition is shown

in three stages:

Creating Waypoints

Waypoint Review Page

You may choose from a list of

useful symbols.

Creating Waypoints

Through this exercise you will create a new waypoint, name the waypoint, and assign a symbol to

the waypoint. You will ﬁ nd the term “Waypoint” is used frequently when talking about navigation. A

“Waypoint” is a position stored in the MFD’s memory that can be used for navigation. Waypoints are used

for direct navigation or you can use several waypoints to build a route.

Creating, or “Marking” a waypoint in the MFD is really very easy. The unit has to be turned on and

receiving at least three satellite signals to mark a waypoint.

Marking your present position as a Waypoint:

Press and hold the ENTER/MARK key for two seconds until the waypoint Review page is displayed.

When you hold the ENTER/MARK key, the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C captures its current location and

displays the Review page. The MFD assigns a square as the default symbol and a number as the default

name. The ‘OK’ button is now highlighted. Pressing ENTER stores the new waypoint using the default

settings for the symbol and name, or you may change the symbol.

Changing the symbol:

1. Using the ARROW KEYPAD, highlight the symbol ﬁ eld, then press ENTER. This displays an alphabetical

list showing all of the available symbols.

2. Using the

ARROW KEYPAD, highlight a symbol and then press ENTER.

We will enter a new waypoint name using the DATA ENTRY keys. When entering data using the

DATA ENTRY keys, press the key repeatedly until the correct character is selected, then pause brieﬂ y

or press the next letter/number from a different key. The unit automatically moves the cursor to the next

placeholder. See page 15 for more information on entering data.

Changing the name:

1. Using the ARROW KEYPAD, highlight the Name ﬁ eld and then press ENTER. This activates the ﬁ eld with

the highlight on the ﬁ rst placeholder.

2. Press the

ARROW KEYPAD to the left one time to clear the ﬁ eld.

Basic Navigation

Navigating to a Waypoint

GPS is all about marking positions as waypoints and navigating to them using the receiver’s steering

guidance and map displays. We’ve already seen how to use the ENTER/MARK key to store our present

position, so it’s time to move on to the fun part—going to a destination.

The NAV/MOB key is the primary tool used to select a destination Waypoint, TracBack (pg. 45), or a

Route (pg. 49) to navigate. The NAV key can be used in two primary ways:

• Pressing NAV once displays a list of options from which you can select ‘Go To Point’, ‘Follow Route’,

‘Follow Track’, ‘TracBack’, or ‘Stop Navigation’.

• Highlighting an on-screen waypoint or map item as a destination directly from the Map Page and

pressing NAV allows you to graphically select points to “Go To”.

When you begin navigation to a waypoint, the GPS sets a straight-line course to that point. The unit

draws a Course Line on the display between the current GPS location and the destination waypoint. You

may use the Map, Compass, or Highway Main Pages (or conﬁ gure any of the other Main Pages) for naviga-

tion. For this exercise, let’s use the Compass Page. You may use the “Practice 1” waypoint you created on

the previous page or any other waypoint you have created.

Going to a waypoint:

1. Press the NAV key.

2. Highlight ‘Go To Point’ and press

ENTER (or press the DATA ENTRY shortcut number).

3. Highlight ‘Waypoints’ and press

ENTER. This displays the ‘Find Waypoints’ window. From this window you

can select waypoints by “Nearest” or “By Name”. Select the ‘Nearest’ tab using the

ARROW KEYPAD.

4. Press the

ARROW KEYPAD UP or DOWN to scroll through the list until the waypoint you wish to navi-

gate to is highlighted. Press

ENTER to display the waypoint Review page.

5. With the ‘Go To’ button highlighted, press

ENTER to begin navigation.

Press the PAGE key and select the Compass Page.

Going to a Waypoint

Using the Compass Page

Located on the Compass Page are the Bearing Pointer, and a Compass Ring. For a GPS to navigate

properly, it has to be moving. When you are moving, the orange Bearing Pointer points toward your

destination, while the Compass Ring reﬂ ects the direction that you are traveling with a red vertical line at

the top of the Compass Ring. When you are headed directly toward your destination, the Bearing Pointer

points toward the top of the display, aligned with the red vertical line displayed at the top of the Com-

pass Ring. If you are not heading toward your destination, the Bearing Pointer turns, continuing to point

toward your destination. To head toward your destination, turn until the Bearing Pointer is aligned with

the red vertical line in the Compass Ring.

Along the right side of the display are the default data ﬁ elds; the top ﬁ eld is the Speed. Also shown are

the distance to your waypoint (DIST NEXT) and estimated time en route (ETE NEXT). The distance and

en route time decreases as you near your destination.

To stop Going To a point:

1. Press the NAV key.

2. Highlight ‘Stop Navigation’ and press

ENTER (or press the DATA ENTRY shortcut number).

Congratulations! You should now have enough experience to use the basic functions of your GPSMAP

3006C/3010C MFD! For detailed instructions on navigating using the Map, Compass, and Highway

Pages, and the rest of the unit’s functions, see the Reference section of this manual.

Basic Navigation

Steer until the arrow is pointing to the red

vertical line. You are then heading straight

towards the point.

How to Use the Map Page

Map Page

The GPSMAP 3006C/3010C’s Map Page provides a comprehensive display of electronic cartography,

plotting and navigational data. When using the unit with the optional BlueChart data or MapSource

software, the map display shows your boat on a digital chart, complete with geographic names, map

items (roads, cities, borders, etc.), navaids, and a host of other chart features. Additional information on

BlueChart data may be found in the “BlueChart User’s Guide”. The unit also plots your track and displays

any routes and waypoints you create. An on-screen cursor lets you pan and scroll to other map areas, deter-

mine the distance and bearing to a position, and perform various route and waypoint functions.

When the cursor is active, an additional data window appears in the upper left of the map to indicate

the position, any identifying text, range, and bearing to the cursor or a selected waypoint or map item. The

map range scale displays at the bottom right of the map.

The UP and DOWN RANGE keys, combined with the ARROW KEYPAD, let you select zoom ranges

and move the cursor. Two basic map operating modes, position mode and cursor mode, determine what

cartography (map data) is shown on the map display. Position mode pans the cartography to keep the pres-

ent position marker within the display area, while cursor mode pans the cartography to keep the cursor

within the display area.

The GPSMAP 3006C/3010C system (by default) powers up in the position mode, with your vessel

centered on the map display.

When the ARROW KEYPAD is pressed, the MFD enters cursor mode. In cursor mode:

• The cursor can be moved over the map display using the ARROW KEYPAD.

• Whenever the cursor reaches the edge of the display, the map scrolls forward under the cursor. Keep

in mind that the boat icon moves with the map scrolling and may go off the display screen (you may

not be able to see your present position).

• When the cursor is stationary, a ﬁ xed coordinate position appears in the position ﬁ eld. Note that the

distance and bearing changes as the boat’s position changes.

• Whenever you change the range in cursor mode, the cursor is centered on screen.

• To return to position mode, press the QUIT key.

When the cursor reaches the edge of the map, the unit may pause as it loads new map

data.

Using the Map Cursor

The cursor allows you to pan away from your present position and scroll to other map areas around

the world (even outside of your current detail coverage). As you pan past the edge of the current map dis-

play, the screen actively scrolls forward to provide continuous map coverage. A hourglass symbol appears

by the pointer while the unit is busy drawing new map detail.

To move the cursor:

Press the ARROW KEYPAD to move the cursor in an up, down, left, right, or diagonal direction.

As you move the cursor, the distance and bearing from your present position to the cursor are dis-

played in the upper left of the map, with the cursor’s position coordinates. Keep in mind that when the

cursor is stationary, the distance and bearing from your present position changes as your boat moves. The

cursor may also be used to ‘snap’ to on-screen waypoints and map items, allowing you to review a selected

position directly from the map display.

To select an on-screen waypoint or map item with the cursor:

1. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to move the cursor to the desired waypoint or map item (if there are several

waypoints grouped closely together, zoom in closer for a better view).

2. When a waypoint or map item is selected, it highlights on screen, with the name and position displayed.

Press ENTER to show details of the map item. When using BlueChart or MapSource data, or if waypoints

are grouped tightly together due to the current Range setting, additional tabs appear on the Review

page. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight the individual tabs to display the information and additional

options. Press QUIT to exit.

To view additional BlueChart chart notes:

1. Select an on-screen BlueChart map item using the steps above.

2. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight the Chart <name> tab. A chart summary appears below the tab.

3. Highlight the ‘Notes’ button and press ENTER. Notes for the chart appear. Highlight the notes ﬁ eld and

press ENTER to scroll the text UP or DOWN using the ARROW KEYPAD. Press QUIT to exit.

Selecting Map Ranges

The map display has 28 available range scales from 20 ft. to 800 mi. (5 m to 1200 km). The map scale

is controlled by the RANGE UP Arrow and DOWN Arrow keys, with the current scale displayed at the

bottom right of the Map window. The scale value represents the distance from one end of the scale bar to

the other.

To select a map range:

Press the RANGE UP Arrow to zoom out and the RANGE DOWN Arrow to zoom in.

The GPSMAP 3006C/3010C’s system has a built-in worldwide database, with more detailed cover-

age available through the use of the optional BlueChart or MapSource data. The GPSMAP 3006C/3010C

displays cartography as long as there is chart information available for the range you’ve selected. Map

coverage conforms to the following conditions:

• When the selected zoom range is covered by either the internal database, BlueChart, or MapSource

data, cartography is displayed.

• When the selected zoom range is covered by both the internal database and BlueChart/MapSource

data, cartography is displayed using the data with the best resolution.

• When the selected zoom range exceeds the resolution of the data in use, overzoom cartography is

displayed and an ‘overzoom’ warning appears below the scale ﬁ eld.

Compass Page

The GPSMAP 3006C/3010C features two different navigation pages: Compass and Highway. Whenever

a NAV goto, Follow Track, TracBack, or Follow Route have been activated, the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C’s

Compass Page guides you to your destination with digital readouts and a graphic compass display, which

includes a bearing pointer.

Located on the Compass Page are the Bearing Pointer and a Compass Ring. For a GPS to navigate

properly, it has to be moving. When you are moving, the orange Bearing Pointer points toward your

destination, while the Compass Ring reﬂ ects the direction that you are traveling with a red vertical line at

the top of the Compass Ring. When you are headed directly toward your destination, the Bearing Pointer

points toward the top of the display, aligned with the red vertical line displayed at the top of the Com-

pass Ring. If you are not heading toward your destination, the Bearing Pointer turns, continuing to point

toward your destination. To head toward your destination, turn until the Bearing Pointer is aligned with

the red vertical line in the Compass Ring.

Along the right side of the display are the default data ﬁ elds, the top ﬁ eld is the Speed. Also shown are

the distance to your waypoint (DIST NEXT) and estimated time en route (ETE NEXT). The distance and

en route time decrease as you near your destination.

The Bearing Pointer, or Compass Ring may point in various directions when you are stationary or at

very low speeds. Once you start moving, the pointer is correct.

You may also customize the Compass Page to show other Functions (pg. 19) and different sizes/types

of Digital Data (pg. 20).

Highway Page

Whenever a Go To, TracBack or route has been activated, the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C’s Highway Page

provides digital and graphic steering guidance to the destination with the Navigation Page. The right side

of the Highway Page features conﬁ gurable Digital Data ﬁ elds that display useful navigation data. The left

section of the screen provides visual guidance to the waypoint on a graphic “highway display.” The line

down the center of the highway represents your desired track line.

As you head toward your destination, the highway perspective moves to indicate your progress to

the waypoint and which direction you should steer to stay on course. If you are navigating a route, the

Highway Page shows each route waypoint in sequence connected by a red “road” with a yellow line down

the middle, which is your desired track line. You may also view Routes details, nearby waypoints not in

the active route, Track Log points, and Saved Tracks can also be displayed. The highway perspective range

may also be zoomed in or out to display a larger or smaller view of the highway. Five settings are available

from 1X to 16X, with a default setting of 8X.

To change the highway perspective range:

Press the RANGE UP Arrow to zoom out and the RANGE DOWN Arrow to zoom in.

Many features of the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C are SOFT KEY driven. The Highway Page provides

access to functions and features relating to the Highway Page (or Highway Function window) using the

Adjustment (ADJ) and/or SOFT KEY options.

The available Adjustment (ADJ)/SOFT KEY options are: Active Route Details, Edit Active Route, and

Setup. As you add optional hardware to the MFD or Garmin Marine Network, Adjustments Menu choices

may appear automatically. See page 14 for instructions on selecting Adjustments. You may also customize

the Highway Page to show other Functions (pg. 19) and different sizes/types of Digital Data (pg. 20). Fol-

lowing are details on using each of these options.

• Active Route Details (Route Details) — displays details such as distance, course, and other useful

information for each waypoint of the Active Route. See page 50 for more information on viewing and

selecting Active Route information.

• Edit Active Route (Edit Route) — allows you to review and modify the Active Route from either a list

of the Route points or a graphically on a map window. See page 51 for more information.

Video Page (Optional)

The Video Page only appears if you attach an optional NTSC or PAL composite video source to the

MFD. (See Installation Manual.) You may input up to two different video signals to the MFD. Once

attached, you may change or alternate between video Source, adjust the Aspect, Brightness, Saturation,

and Contrast. You may also adjust which video standard is being input.

The Video Page provides access to functions and features using the Adjustment (ADJ) and/or SOFT

KEY options. The following options are available:

• Source— lets you select input between ‘Video In 1’ and ‘Video In 2’. Choose ‘Alternate’ to have the

unit switch between source at 5, 10, and 30 second intervals.

• Aspect— you may ‘Stretch’ the video input to ﬁ ll the entire frame or use ‘Standard’ to show the

normal view of the video input.

• Brightness— Affects how bright the overall video input appears on the display (0%-100%).

• Saturation— Adjusts the intensity of the colors. High saturation produces bright colors, low

saturation produces washed out colors.

• Contrast— Adjusts the difference between light and dark areas of the video input. The higher the

Contrast, the brighter the video appears.

• Standard (ADJ key only)— Selects the composite video input Standard. Choose ‘Auto’ to have

the unit automatically select the Standard. Choose ‘NTSC’ for NTSC (National Television System

Committee) or ‘PAL’ (Phase Alternate Line) for composite video input. If set to ‘Auto’ and ‘Alternate’

is selected for ‘Source’, a switching delay may be experienced as the unit determines the video

input. Set to the speciﬁ c Standard for best results.

Creating and Using Waypoints

The MFD stores up to 4000 alphanumeric waypoints with a user-deﬁ ned icon, comment, depth, and

water temperature available for each waypoint. (If you are using optional Garmin Sonar hardware, the

Depth and Water Temp ﬁ elds ﬁ ll in automatically.) Waypoints can be created using three basic methods:

• ENTER/MARK key– used primarily for marking your present position, the ENTER/MARK key

also provides options that allow you to select a map position or map item from the map display.

• Graphically– allows you to deﬁ ne a new waypoint position from the map display using the

ARROW KEYPAD.

• Text Entry– allows you to enter a new waypoint’s coordinates manually (from a chart, etc.).

Marking Your Present Position

The Garmin GPSMAP 3006C/3010C’s ENTER/MARK key lets you quickly capture your present posi-

tion (or cursor or map item position) in order to create a new waypoint. You must have a valid position ﬁ x

to mark your present position. (See page 16.)

To mark your present position:

1. Press and hold the ENTER/MARK key until the waypoint ’Review’ page appears, then release it. You see a

default three-digit name and symbol for the new waypoint.

2. To accept the waypoint with the default name and symbol, press ENTER to conﬁ rm the highlighted ‘OK’

prompt.

3. To enter a different name, highlight the name ﬁ eld and press ENTER, then use the ARROW KEYPAD or

DATA ENTRY shortcut keys to enter the new letters/numbers and press ENTER when done. You may use

up to 10 alphanumeric characters for the name.

4. To enter a different symbol, highlight the symbol ﬁ eld to the left of the name and press ENTER, then use

the ARROW KEYPAD and ENTER or DATA ENTRY shortcut keys to select a new symbol.

5. To enter optional comments, depth, or water temp, highlight the appropriate ﬁ eld and press ENTER, then

use the ARROW KEYPAD or DATA ENTRY shortcut keys to enter the data and press ENTER.

6. To manually enter a set of coordinates, highlight the coordinates and press ENTER, then use the ARROW

KEYPAD or DATA ENTRY shortcut keys to enter the new coordinates and press ENTER when done.

7. When done, use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight the ‘OK’ prompt and press ENTER to save the

waypoint into memory.

Highlight ‘OK’ and press ENTER to use

the default name and symbol.

Highlight a ﬁ eld and press ENTER to enter

a new symbol, name, comment or depth.

Creating Waypoints Graphically

Waypoints may also be quickly created with the Map Page cursor, which allows you to point to any

map position or map feature to create a new waypoint. When you move the cursor over a map item, you

see a highlighted description of that item. The GPSMAP 3006C/3010C uses the map item text shown on

the cartography as the default name and symbol for the new waypoint.

To create a new waypoint on an open map location:

1. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to move the cursor to the desired map position.

2. Press and quickly release the ENTER/MARK key to capture the cursor position (press and hold ENTER/

MARK to mark your present location, not the map cursor’s position).

3. The waypoint ‘Review’ page appears. To accept the waypoint with the default name and symbol, press

ENTER.

4. To change the name, symbol, position, or add a comment, depth, or water temp, highlight the appropriate

ﬁ eld and press ENTER. Make your changes and press ENTER when done. After entering and conﬁ rming

your changes, highlight ‘OK’ and press ENTER.

To create a new waypoint from a map feature:

1. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to move the cursor and highlight the desired map feature.

2. Press ENTER/MARK to capture the cursor position. A ‘Review’ page for that map feature appears. Use the

ARROW KEYPAD to highlight ‘Create Wpt’ and press ENTER.

3. The waypoint ‘Review’ page appears. To accept the waypoint with the default name and symbol (based on

the map feature), highlight ‘OK’ and press ENTER.

To change the name, symbol, position, or enter comments, depth, or water temp, highlight the appropriate

ﬁ eld and press ENTER. Make your changes and press ENTER. After entering and conﬁ rming your changes,

use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight ‘OK’ and press ENTER.

Creating Waypoints

Additional Options For Creating Waypoints

Waypoints may also be created by manually entering position coordinates through the Points tab of

the Main Menu. This method can be useful for creating a waypoint at a speciﬁ c latitude/longitude posi-

tion from a chart or other source. Entering coordinates into the MFD while it is set to a datum different

from in which the coordinates were created may result in an incorrect waypoint location. When entering a

waypoint manually, be sure that the MFD is set to the same position format (pg. 70) and map datum (pg.

71) as the paper chart or coordinate’s source.

To create a new waypoint by manually entering location coordinates:

1. Hold ADJ/MENU for two seconds to display the Main Menu. Highlight the ‘Points’ tab. You may also

MARK your current location using the steps on page 36, then proceed to step 3.

2. Highlight the ‘New Waypoint’ button and press ENTER. The waypoint ‘Review’ page appears, with the next

available waypoint number and the receiver’s last know position as the default name and position.

3. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight the position ﬁ eld and press ENTER. Use the ARROW KEYPAD or

DATA ENTRY keys to enter the desired position coordinates and press ENTER when ﬁ nished.

4. To change the name, symbol, or enter comments, depth, or water temp, highlight the appropriate ﬁ eld and

press ENTER. Make your changes and press ENTER when ﬁ nished.

5. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight ‘OK’ and press ENTER to save the waypoint.

Two additional options are available on the waypoint ‘Review’ page: Add To Route and Move Wpt

(Waypoint).

• Add to Route— Adds the new waypoint to the end of a route.

• Move Wpt— Allows you to move or project the waypoint to a new location on the map display.

To add a new waypoint to a route:

1. Select ‘Add To Route’ button.

2. The ‘Select Route’ screen appears. Highlight the desired route or select ‘New Route’ and press ENTER.

3. With ‘OK’ highlighted, press ENTER to save the waypoint.

Going to a Destination

Using the NAV key, the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C provides four primary ways to navigate to a destina-

tion: Go To Point, Follow Route, Follow Track, and TracBack. Once you are actively navigating, you see a

straight line that always runs from your current location to the destination on the Map Page. The easi-

est method for selecting a destination is the ‘Go To’ function, which lets you select a destination point,

then quickly sets a direct course from your present position. If you highlight a point on a list or the map

and press NAV, ‘Go To <point name>’ appears in addition to ‘Go To Point’. The ‘Go To’ function can be

accessed from any list of points or graphically from the map display.

To activate a ‘ Go To’ from a point list:

1. Press the NAV key.

2. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight ‘ Go To Point’ and press ENTER.

3. From the ‘Find From Current Position’ window, highlight ‘Waypoints’ and press ENTER. (You may also

choose to go to other points, such as Cities, Tide Stations, etc. from this list.)

4. Select a waypoint from the ‘By Name’ or ‘Nearest’ list, then press ENTER. To display the waypoint Review

page for the selected waypoint.

5. With the ‘Go To’ button highlighted, press ENTER to begin navigation.

To stop navigation:

Press the NAV key and select ‘ Stop Navigation’.

Selecting a ‘Go To’ Graphically

A graphical ‘Go To’ may be used to select one of three items from the map display: an existing

waypoint, an on-screen map item (roads, rivers, cities, navaids, etc.), or a new map point (non-map item).

If you select a map item as the ‘Go To’ destination, the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C automatically uses the

name of the map item, but the point is not stored in the waypoint list (see page 37 for creating waypoints

using map items). If you select a new map point (non-map item) as the ‘Go To’ destination, the GPSMAP

3006C/3010C automatically creates or moves a waypoint named ‘MAP’ at the cursor position.

To activate an existing waypoint or map item as a ‘Go To’ from the map display:

1. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight the waypoint or map item on the screen and press NAV.

2. With ‘Go To <waypoint name>’, press ENTER or the associated DATA ENTRY key.

Choose a waypoint from either the ‘By Name’

or ‘Nearest’ tab list.

The waypoint or map item name automati-

cally appears when highlighted and NAV is

Follow Track and TracBack Navigation

A “track” is an electronic breadcrumb trail recording or history of your path. The track that is cur-

rently being recorded is referred to as “Active”. An active Track may be stored in the unit and once stored,

is referred to as “Saved”. Both the ‘Follow Track’ and ‘TracBack’ options navigate in the same way. ‘Follow

Track’ uses stored or “Saved” tracks. ‘TracBack’ uses your current or “Active” track. The TracBack function

allows you to retrace your path using the track log automatically stored in the receiver’s memory, which

eliminates the need to store waypoints along the way. TracBack routes are created by reducing your track

log into a route and activating an inverted route. Once activated, a TracBack route leads you back to the

oldest stored track log point, so it’s a good idea to clear the existing track log before you start your current

trip.

To clear the track log and deﬁ ne a starting point for a TracBack route:

1. Hold ADJ/MENU for two seconds to display the Main Menu. Highlight the ‘Tracks’ tab, then highlight the

‘Active’ tab to the right.

2. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight the ‘Clear’ button and press ENTER.

3. Highlight ‘OK’ and press ENTER.

You must ﬁ rst save a track log before you can use the ‘Follow Track’ feature. The Save feature allows

you to store up to 15 track logs from certain times and dates.

To save a track log:

1. Hold ADJ/MENU for two seconds to display the Main Menu. Highlight the ‘Tracks’ tab, then highlight the

‘Active’ tab to the right

2. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to select ‘Save’ and press ENTER.

3. On the ‘Save Back Through’ window, highlight the desired time, date, or ‘Entire Log’ and press ENTER.

‘Go To MAP Point’ allows you to navigate to

To activate a TracBack using the NAV key:

1. Press the NAV key, then select ‘TracBack’.

2. On the ‘TracBack Through’ window, highlight the desired time, date, or ‘Entire Log’ and press ENTER.

Once a TracBack has been activated, the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C takes the track log currently stored in

memory and divides it into segments called ‘legs’. Up to 300 temporary ‘turns’ (BEGIN, TURN 1, TURN 2,

TURN 3,...., TURN X, END) are created to mark the most signiﬁ cant features of the track log in order to

duplicate your exact path as closely as possible. To get the most out of the TracBack feature, remember the

following tips:

• Always clear the track log at the point that you want to go back to (dock, etc.).

• The ‘Record Mode’ option on the track log setup page must be set to ‘Fill’ or ‘Wrap’. (see page 61)

• There must be at least two track log points stored in memory to create a TracBack route.

• If the track log interval is set to the ‘Time’ option, the route may not follow your exact path (keep

the interval set to ‘resolution’ for best performance).

• If the receiver is turned off or satellite coverage is lost during your trip, the TracBack draws a

straight line between any point where coverage was lost and where it resumed.

• If your track log’s changes in distance and direction are too complex, 300 waypoints may not mark

your path accurately. The receiver then assigns the 300 waypoints to the most signiﬁ cant points of

your track, and simpliﬁ es segments with fewer changes in direction.

To stop TracBack navigation:

Press the NAV key and select ‘Stop Navigation’.

For more information on setting up the Track options and saved tracks, see pages 61.

MOB (Man OverBoard)

Routes

The last way to navigate to a destination is to create a user-deﬁ ned route. A route is a series of

waypoints or map items which may be navigated from point to point. The Garmin GPSMAP 3006C/3010C

system lets you create and store up to 50 reversible routes (numbered 1-50), with up to 300 points each.

Routes can be created and modiﬁ ed in two ways. The ﬁ rst way is to use the ‘Map’ option from the Route

page, allowing you to see each route on a map with a waypoint list as you create, review, or modify the

route. The second way is to use the ‘Numbers’ option from the Route page, allowing you to see a list of

the route points along with distance and course information as you create, review, or modify the route.

You may also switch back and forth between these to options as you create a route. All of the GPSMAP

3006C/3010C’s route functions are accessed through the ‘Route’ tab on the Main Menu page, the NAV key,

or through the Highway function’s Adjustment Menu.

To create a route graphically from the Route map page:

1. Hold ADJ/MENU for two seconds to display the Main Menu. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight the

‘Routes’ tab.

2. Highlight the ‘New Route’ button and press ENTER.

3. The Map window is highlighted. To add an existing waypoint or map item to the route, use the ARROW

KEYPAD to highlight the desired waypoint or map item on screen and press ENTER. To create a waypoint

from a map item, see page 37.

4. To add a new waypoint to be used in the route, use the map cursor to select the desired map position and

press ENTER. Highlight ‘OK’ and press ENTER again to conﬁ rm the new waypoint. You may also change

the name, symbol and other properties of the new waypoint (see pages 40).

As you add each new waypoint to the route, the list to the left shows the waypoint name. The bottom of

the display shows you the number of available and used points. A yellow/red route line appears on the map

to indicate each completed leg, and a blue dotted line appears to indicate the distance and bearing to the

arrow cursor from the last route waypoint.

5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until you have ﬁ nished deﬁ ning all route waypoints.

6. When ﬁ nished press QUIT three times to return to the Route List page; or press FCTN to move the high-

light to the Route waypoint list and option buttons.

GPS Tab— the “Info” submenu tab provides a visual reference of satellite acquisition, receiver status, and

accuracy. The status information gives you an idea of what the receiver is doing at any given moment. The

sky view and signal strength bars give you an indication of what satellites are visible to the receiver and

whether or not they are being tracked. The signal strength is shown on a bar graph for each satellite, with

the satellite number below. As the receiver locks onto satellites, a signal strength bar appears for each satel-

lite in view. The progress of satellite acquisition is shown in three stages:

• No signal strength bars— the receiver is looking for the satellites indicated.

• White signal strength bars— the receiver has found the satellite(s) and is collecting data.

• Green signal strength bars— the receiver has collected the necessary data and the satellite(s) are

ready for use.

As soon as the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C has collected the necessary data from the best satellites in

view to calculate a ﬁ x, the status ﬁ eld indicates “Ready For Navigation” in the Status ﬁ eld. The unit then

updates the position, date and time.

You can use the sky view to help determine if any satellites are being blocked, and whether you have

a current position ﬁ x (indicated by a “Ready For Navigation” in the Status ﬁ eld). The sky view shows a

bird’s-eye view of the position of each satellite relative to the receiver’s last known position. The outer circle

represents the horizon (north up), the inner circle 45º above the horizon, and the center point a position

directly overhead. You can also set the sky view to a ‘Track Up’ conﬁ guration, causing the top of the sky

view to align along your current track heading.

WAAS Capability

The GPSMAP 3006C/3010C is capable of receiving WAAS (Wide Area Augmentation System) satellite

signals. WAAS is an FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) funded project to improve the overall accuracy

and integrity of the GPS signal for aviation use, but land/sea based users may also beneﬁ t from this system.

At this time, the system is still in the development stage and is not fully operational. There are currently

two WAAS satellites that can be received in the U.S.A., one over the Atlantic Ocean and one over the

Paciﬁ c Ocean, in a geo-stationary orbit over the equator. Effective use of the WAAS satellite signal may be

limited by your geographic location in relation to those satellites, now in developmental service. WAAS

satellite signal reception requires an absolute clear view of the sky and works best when there are no

nearby obstructions such as buildings, mountains, etc. WAAS satellites are numbered 33 or higher when

viewing the sky view on your GPSMAP 3006C/3010C. Initial reception of the WAAS signal may take up

to 15-20 minutes, then 1-2 minutes afterwards. When WAAS differential correction has been received for

GPS satellites (numbers 32 or below), a ‘D’ appears in the signal bar of the sky view and “Ready For Navi-

gation with WAAS” appears in the Status ﬁ eld. To learn more about the WAAS system, its satellite posi-

tions and current state of development, visit the FAA web site (http://gps.faa.gov). Since WAAS requires

CPU resources of the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C to search for and track the satellites, you may disable the

WAAS feature to improve unit performance if WAAS reception is not available in your area.

Receiver Status and Accuracy

Receiver status is indicated by the Status ﬁ eld. Current accuracy is indicated by the EPE (Estimated

Position Error) ﬁ eld. Accuracy uses many factors, such as the number of received GPS satellites, signal

strength and satellite orientation to calculate position accuracy in feet or meters. The status ﬁ eld shows

one of the following conditions:

• Searching for Satellites – the receiver is looking for any satellites and collecting data from satellites

visible at its last known or initialized position, but has not collected enough data to calculate a ﬁ x.

This process can take up to ﬁ ve minutes.

• Ready For Navigation – at least three satellites with good geometry have been acquired and your

position is now being calculated in latitude, longitude and elevation. ‘Ready For Navigation with

WAAS’ appears when you are receiving WAAS satellite corrections in and a ‘D’ shows on the

strength bar of satellites being corrected.

Main Menu: GPS Tab

The GPSMAP 3006C/3010C uses GPS technology in

order to ﬁ nd your precise location. GPS stands for Global

Positioning System, a group of 24 satellites, circling the

earth twice a day at an altitude of about 12,000 miles. The

satellites transmit very low power radio signals contain-

ing position and time information, allowing anyone with

a GPS receiver to determine their location on the Earth

within 100 meters or better. For more detailed informa-

tion regarding GPS, Garmin has prepared a booklet titled

“GPS Guide for Beginners” available from our Web site at

www.garmin.com.

memory used and current settings. For the ‘Active’ tab, the following settings are available:

• Record Mode— lets you select one of three track recording options:

Off— No track log is recorded. Note that selecting the ‘Off’ setting prevents you from using the

TracBack feature.

Fill— a track log is recorded until the track memory is full.

Wrap— A track log is continuously recorded, wrapping through the available memory (replacing

the oldest track data with new data).

• Color— lets you choose a color that is used to display the active track log.

• Interval— deﬁ nes the frequency at which the track plot is recorded.

Three interval settings are available:

Distance— records track based on a user-deﬁ ned distance between points.

Time— records track plot based on a user-deﬁ ned time interval.

Resolution— records track plot based upon a user-deﬁ ned variance from your course over

ground or changes in water depth/temp (if equipped). The resolution option is the default setting

and is recommended for the most efﬁ cient use of memory and TracBack performance. The dis-

tance value (entered in the value ﬁ eld) is the maximum error allowed from the true course before

recording a track point.

• Value— deﬁ nes the distance or time used to record the track log.

• Save button— allows you to save the current active track log.

DSC Tab— allows to control and set up DSC (Digital Selective Calling) features on the unit.

What is Digital selective calling (DSC)?

Digital Selective Calling (DSC) uses marine VHF radio and Global Positioning System (GPS) technolo-

gies to transmit and receive location information. DSC is used by mariners to assist them in two major

areas: Distress Calls and Position Reporting.

An emergency DSC Distress Call allows a vessel in trouble to transmit a substantial amount of infor-

mation in a single transmission or “call,” without the need for voice communication. When any nearby

rescuer receives the DSC signal, an alarm sounds and they immediately receive the position of the caller.

The rescuer may then choose to navigate (Go To) the caller’s position to assist or forward the call on to the

Coast Guard. When the Coast Guard receives the call, they can immediately access the caller’s informa-

tion (such as who they are and the type of vessel) in their database while they are in transit to the caller’s

position.

A non-emergency DSC Position Report allows mariners to exchange and display the positions of one

another. Once a DSC position is received, the mariner may choose to create a waypoint or to show the

received position on an electronic map.

Any time a vessel receives a DSC call, they can store that location and quickly navigate to that position

using a Go To. This makes DSC a time-saver, especially in an emergency situation. In order to use DSC,

users must ﬁ rst register their VHF radio with the FCC and receive a Maritime Mobile Service Identity

(MMSI) number.

What is a Maritime mobile service identity (MMSI)?

Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI) basically allows a VHF radio to act like a phone. In order to

make a “call” on a phone, you ﬁ rst need a phone number to dial. The 9-digit MMSI number acts like a

phone number when used in a Position Report and as a unique identiﬁ er to the Coast Guard when used in

an emergency Distress Call. In order to obtain a Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI) number, users

must register their VHF radio with the FCC (Form 605). Garmin does not supply this number!

How ARE MMSI assignments obtained?

Non-commercial users (e.g. recreational users who remain in domestic waters and only carry VHF,

EPIRB (Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacons), and Radar are not required to have a FCC ship

station license. The FCC and Coast Guard have authorized some second and third party vendors to assign

MMSI numbers. This service is limited to registering recreational vessels only. To receive information

on how to obtain a recreational MMSI number please contact: http://www.uscg.mil/rescue21/links/

mmsi.htm or http://wireless.fcc.gov/marine/.

U.S Non-Federal User: Commercial users, or those who travel outside the U.S. or Canada, must apply

for a ship station license, or an amendment to a ship station license. To ﬁ nd out if you require a Ship

Station license contact: http://wireless.fcc.gov/marine/fctsht14.html. If your vessel requires licensing by

the FCC you will obtain a MMSI during the application/licensing process when you ﬁ le FCC Forms 159

and 605.

U.S. Federal User: Federal users can obtain MMSI assignments from their agency radio spectrum

management ofﬁ ce. These procedures are currently under review by the NTIA (National Telecommunica-

tions and Information Administration).

Outside the U.S.: Users can obtain an MMSI assignment from their telecommunications authority or

ship registry, often by obtaining or amending their ship station license.

In Canada: Industry Canada is responsible for assigning MMSI numbers to commercial and recre-

ational vessels. Information is available at the following web site: http://apollo.ic.gc.ca/english/mmsi.html.

How can Garmin help you with DSC?

To receive Distress Calls or Position Reports, you must have a DSC-equipped chartplotter as well as a

VHF radio with DSC support. During normal, non-emergency Position Report communication, Channel

70 (156.525 MHz) has been set aside as the VHF/DSC digital call channel. For a Distress Call, a mariner

presses the MayDay button on their VHF radio. The call transmits on an emergency channel with the

MMSI number attached to the call (if you have DSC support). Any DSC-equipped mariner (on sea or land)

within range can receive the call.

Reference

When the Garmin GPSMAP 3006C/3010C is connected to a VHF with DSC support, the GPS unit dis-

plays a Call List, Log, and a Directory available to store incoming information received from another user’s

DSC capable VHF/GPS combination. Basic wiring is required for the Garmin unit and VHF radio to send

and receive NMEA data from each other (pg.72 and Installation Guide).

DSC Distress Call

With a Garmin DSC capable chartplotter properly connected to a VHF radio with DSC output, you

may receive any DSC Distress Call within range. A window pops up and a message displays when a

Distress Call is received. To notify you a Distress Call has been received, an alarm sounds (if enabled). The

alarm only sounds on a Distress Call, and it does not sound on a Position Report. Distress Calls are broad-

casted to all DSC users in radio range and appear with a blue and white checkered icon.

You also have the ability to input a caller’s name, if it is known. (The caller’s name replaces the MMSI

number as a reference once it is entered.)

DSC Position Report

The Position Report operates similarly to the Distress Call. Remember this type of contact is like a

phone call, but no emergency alarms are set off and the call is speciﬁ c to the receiver. Position Reports are

not broadcasted to all DSC users and appear with a gold boat icon.

DSC Call List

The DSC Call List displays the current calls received. The GPS can manage up to 100 calls. When ‘calls’

are received, they are updated constantly to give the most current information, even if the unit is left unat-

tended. Any entry from the Call List can be selected to show an Entry Review.

DSC Log

When DSC calls are received, they are automatically stored in the Log, with the latest call at the top.

The unit may store up to 100 logs. Once 100 logs are received, the oldest log ﬁ le is removed when a new

call is received.

The Call List and Log both display information of call Type, Date/Time, Position, and MMSI/Name.

Pressing ADJ/MENU from this list allows you to ‘Sort By (Call) Type’, ‘Sort By Time’, ‘Sort By Name’, ‘De-

lete’ (only after highlighting a particular call), and ‘Delete All’. Select the desired option and press ENTER.

A simple way to determine your local time offset is

how many hours you are behind or ahead of UTC

(also called ‘Greenwich’ or ‘zulu’ time).

Example: EST (Eastern Standard Time) is 5 hours

behind UTC, so your offset would be -5. Adding one

hour for daylight savings would make EDT (Eastern

Daylight Time) - 4. Subtract an hour for each time

zone as you travel west.

Offsets for Continental U.S. would be:

EST

-5 EDT -4

CST -6 CDT -5

MST -7 MDT -6

PST -8 PDT -7

Loran TD System

LORAN-C is a radio navigation aid operated and maintained in the United States by the United States

Coast Guard. The name LORAN is an acronym for “LOng RAnge Navigation”. The LORAN system covers

the entire United States and the U.S. Coastal Conﬂ uence Zone. From the perspective of a mariner, the

system is used for ocean and coastal navigation. It can be used as a supplemental system for harbor and

harbor approach navigation, and it is used for inland navigation by recreational vehicles.

LORAN TD Feature

The LORAN TD (Time Delay) feature eases the transition from using LORAN to using GPS. The

GPSMAP unit automatically converts GPS coordinates to LORAN TDs for those who have a collection of

LORAN ﬁ xes for favorite ﬁ shing spots and other waypoints recorded as TDs. You can display your posi-

tion as a TD or enter waypoints as TDs. The accuracy to be expected from this conversion is approximately

thirty meters. When the unit is placed in the LORAN TD format mode, it simulates the operation of a

LORAN receiver. Position coordinates may be displayed as TDs, and all navigation functions may be used

as if the unit was actually receiving LORAN signals.

Using the LORAN TD Format

When creating new waypoints using LORAN TD coordinates, you must set the correct LORAN chain

number and secondary stations in the Setup TD ﬁ eld before storing the waypoint. You must have the

correct chain number as well as the secondary station identiﬁ ers to use this option correctly. These values

varies per coordinate set or geographical location. Failure to enter correct information could result in

inaccuracies for the desired destination. After the waypoint is stored in unit memory, it always references

the LORAN chain number and secondary stations currently selected in the Setup TD ﬁ eld. If you enter a

different LORAN chain number, change the secondary stations or offsets in the Setup TD ﬁ eld, the active

waypoint information reﬂ ects those changes. Since the GPSMAP unit does not rely on the LORAN signal

for navigation, it can reference a different GRI chain and/or secondary stations and still navigate to the

location stored in memory.

The LORAN Position Format ﬁ eld is located under the Units tab in the Main Menu. The ‘LORAN TD

Setup’ window contains the ﬁ elds to select the Loran GRI-Chain Number, Primary and Secondary Stations,

and TD Offsets.

Select ‘Loran TD’, then highlight the

‘Setup’ button and press ENTER.

Appendix D

Loran TD

Getting Started

Main Page Sequence

To setup Loran TD from the Main Menu:

1. Using the ARROW KEYPAD, highlight the ‘System’ tab, then press RIGHT to highlight the ‘Units’ submenu

tab. Highlight the “Position Format” ﬁ eld and press ENTER.

2. Highlight ‘Loran TD’, press ENTER, then highlight the ‘Setup’ button to the right and press ENTER.

3. To change the settings of any of the ﬁ ve ﬁ elds, highlight the ﬁ eld, press ENTER, select/enter the desired

setting and press ENTER.

4. When done, press the QUIT key to return to the Main Menu.

If the active GRI Chain, secondary stations or offsets have been changed since the waypoint was cre-

ated, the waypoint now references the active GRI-chain and secondary stations and adjust the TD coordi-

nates accordingly. Remember that the GPS is not relying on the LORAN signal for navigation and actu-

ally converts the TD coordinate to a useful LAT/LON coordinate (in the background) before storing the

waypoint to memory or using it for navigation. Because of this the unit can navigate to a TD coordinate

anywhere in the world.

For more information on Loran TDs, you may download Garmin’s “Loran TD Position Format Hand-

book” from the Garmin Web site.

Cleaning - The unit’s case is constructed of high quality mate-

rial and does not require user maintenance other than cleaning.

Clean the unit housing using a cloth lightly dampened with

a mild detergent solution and then wipe dry. Avoid chemical

cleaners and solvents that may damage plastic components. Do

not apply cleaner to electrical contacts on the back of the unit.

Storage - Do not store the unit where exposure to temperature

extremes may occur (see left), as permanent damage may

result. User information, such as waypoints, routes, etc. is

retained in the unit’s memory, without the need for external

power. It is always a good practice to back up important user

data by manually recording it or downloading it to a PC (see

pg. 72).

Water Immersion -The GPSMAP 3006C/3010C is water-

proof to IEC Standard 60529 IPX7. It can withstand immersion

in 1 meter of water for 30 minutes. Prolonged submersion

can cause damage to the unit. After submersion, be certain to

remove the data card and dry the compartments before reuse.

To resolve problems that cannot be remedied using this guide,

contact Garmin Customer Support in the U.S.A. at 800-800-

1020 or Garmin Europe at 44-1794-519944.
