A dozen data field designed for the Air traveler. Designed with the help of a Pilot.
This multi data field provides navigation, distance remain and ETE to one waypoint, which the waypoint is programmable from Garmin Express or Connect phone app. The way point is entered in degrees only. If either the Longitude or Latitude is negative use the check box to indicate negative.
Custom Destination (Long/Lat) Waypoint entered through Connect App or Garmin Express.
Supports only one way point.
How to use:
From the custom user configuration menu in Garmin Express or Garmin Connect, enter your destination Longitude and Latitude waypoint in decimal degrees. If the coordinate Long/Lat is negative set the negative button. The ETE and Distance Remaining are determined by the way point position and your current position. The heading bug is the heading of your destination.
App Setting/Custom User configuration HOWTO https://apps.garmin.com/settingsHelp
Seeing some Issues with configuration with Android Connect App but not on Apple App. Be sure to use the most current Connect app for configuration. Or use Garmin Express 4.1.11 or greater. The current support software versions does matter, so please keep them updated, too.
Thanks!
