Garmin 196 Guida Utente

With the Position Data Page open, press MENU to open the options 

menu. You can set up the layout of the page and change the data 

fields. For an explanation of the data fields, refer to 

page 112

 You can also select one of the following options:

Reset Trip—clears trip information, except the maximum speed and 

the odometer. 
Reset Max Speed—clears the maximum speed. 
Reset Odometer—clears the running total of the distance traveled 

since the odometer was last reset.
Reset All—clears all trip information including the maximum speed 

and odometer. 

The Flights tab shows a list of any recorded flights, including date, 

route of flight, and flight time. The GPSMAP 196 saves up to 50 

recorded flights while in Aviation Mode. Entries on this list are 

automatically created for each flight. 
The bottom of the Flights tab shows the time of your last flight. This 

resets if you select All Unit Defaults from the System tab options 

menu. 
An optional FlightBook software package is available to further 

simplify your flight record keeping. For details about FlightBook, 

visit the Garmin Web site at 

.

Recording begins when your speed exceeds 30 knots and you 

gain 500 feet of altitude. The Route of Flight field uses the 

nearest airport as the departure airport. The destination airport is 

continuously updated as your flight progresses. 
If you land and groundspeed drops below 30 knots, the flight entry 

is saved and a new entry is recorded when you depart the airport. 

A touch-and-go or brief stop of less than 10 minutes appends to the 

current flight record, rather than starting a new entry. 
Select any listed entry in the log to view additional information.
