Current nav point Desired track line Route waypoint Current location
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 3D Highway Page shows each route waypoint in sequence connected by a magenta road with a line down the
For the compass to work, the GPS must be moving. When you are moving, the orange Bearing Pointer points toward your destination, while the Compass Ring reflects the direction you are traveling by 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 screen, aligned with the red vertical line at the top of the Compass 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.

The bottom of each chart shows a 24-hour block of local time for your location. Day (yellow bar) and night (blue bar) at the Current Station appear across the time scale, with the time progressing from left to right (sunrise and sunset information may not be available for some stations). The solid, light vertical lines are in 4-hour increments, and the light, dotted vertical lines are in 1-hour increments. A solid, vertical line (with the local time at the top) indicates the strength of the current that corresponds to the time shown in the local time box. To select the Current Station nearest to your location:

Using Radar

This section covers the features and operation of the GMR 20/40 GMR 21/41, or GMR 404/406 marine radar when networked with your GPSMAP 3005C. Read the installation instructions included with your Garmin marine radar to install and configure your GMR 20/40 GMR 21/41, or GMR 404/406.
NOTE: You must have a GMR 20/40, GMR 21/41, or GMR 404/406 marine radar installed and connected to your GPSMAP 3005C to use the radar features.
As a safety feature, the radar enters standby mode after it warms up. This gives the operator an opportunity to verify that the area around the scanner is clear before beginning radar transmission. It is important to remember that the microwave energy transmitted by the scanner can potentially be dangerous.
Caution: The marine radar transmits microwave energy that has the potential to be harmful to humans and animals. Before beginning radar transmission, verify that the area around the radar is clear. The radar transmits a beam approximately 12 above and below a line extending horizontally from the center of the scanner. Avoid looking directly at the scanner, because the eyes are the most susceptible part of the body.

Understanding Radar

The Garmin marine radar transmits a narrow beam of microwave energy in a rotating 360 pattern. When the transmitted energy contacts a target, some of that energy is reflected and returned to the scanner. The scanner collects the returned energy for processing and display. Your GMR 20/40, GMR 21/41, or GMR 404/406 is operated and adjusted using controls on your GPSMAP 3005C. You can view radar data on the Radar Page or as an overlay on the Map Page. All radar controls are accessible from both pages. When you turn on the radar, the status bar shows the message Radar Warming Up with a countdown to Standby Mode. The countdown also appears in the middle of the Radar Page. When the countdown reaches 0 (zero), the Hold FCTN to transmit message appears. Radar
When the area surrounding the scanner is clear, press and hold the FCTN key. The message Do you want to begin radar transmission? is shown. Select Yes, and then press ENTER.
Using Radar> Understanding Radar
Before transmission begins, the message Spinning Up is shown while the radar antenna reaches nominal rotation speed. After the message disappears, the radar begins painting an image.
Understanding the Radar Display
The Radar Page shows a status bar along the top, user-configurable digital navigation data down the right side, a Heading Line, and Range Rings. Soft keys that allow quick access to radar functions and setting changes appear along the bottom of the page.

Heading Line

Using Range Rings Use the Range Rings to quickly determine the distance to a target. The lowerright corner of the screen contains two scales. The scale value represents the distance from the center of the radar display to the outermost complete ring. The top scale represents this value. The bottom scale represents the ring separation or the distance between the Range Rings. Use the RANGE keys to zoom in or out. The tick marks on the Range Rings are arranged with major tick marks at 30 degree increments and minor tick marks every five degrees. The tick marks can help in quickly determining the azimuth to a target

Range Rings 1/2 nm

To access and change a setting on the Radar tab:
1. Press the Radar Options soft key. 2. Press the Hide Radar soft key. The radar overlay is hidden.
Using Radar> Radar Tab
Use the General sub tab to select orientation, timed transmit, and cross-talk rejection. The available General sub tab options are: Orientationsets the orientation of the Radar Page display. The settings are Heading Up, North Up, or Course Up. North Indicatortoggles the north indicator arrow on or off. Timed Transmitused to save power, usually while at anchor. When Timed Transmit is On, the radar uses the settings in Timed Transmit XMIT Time and Timed Transmit STBY Time fields. When Timed Transmit is Off, these fields are unavailable. Timed Transmit XMIT Timesets the amount of time (in minutes) for which the radar transmits. For example, if set to 01 min, the radar transmits for one minute before switching to standby for the amount of time entered in the Timed Transmit STBY Time field. Timed Transmit STBY Timesets the amount of time (in minutes) that the radar is in standby mode. For example, if set to 10 min, the radar is in standby mode for 10 minutes before switching to transmission for the amount of time entered in the Timed Transmit XMIT Time field. When the radar is in standby mode, the scanner does not rotate or transmit; however, power is still applied to the Magnetron, eliminating the need for a warm-up cycle. Cross-talk Rejectiontoggles cross-talk rejection on or off. Radar crosstalk may occur when two or more radar equipped vessels are operating in proximity to one another. Cross-talk rejection automatically filters out the cross-talk interference.

Display Sub Tab

Use the Display sub tab to adjust settings for: Center Offset, Rings, Background, Heading Line, Bearing Reference, and Navigation Features.
The available Display sub tab options are: Center Offsetsets your location on the screen. Center places your current location in the center of the screen. Look Ahead shifts your current location toward the bottom of the screen, allowing you to view an area farther ahead. Auto Shift adjusts your location on the screen according to the current speed. Ringstoggles the radar rings on or off. Backgroundsets the background color for the Radar Page. Available options are Black, Blue, or White. Heading Linetoggles the heading line on or off.

Course Lineshow a course line from your starting point to the active destination waypoint, which is similar to navigation on a map.
The available MARPA sub tab options are: Vector Lengthpredicts the targets approximate position at a set time interval. This setting determines the length of the Vector Line, based on the time interval setting and the targets speed. The time interval settings range from.05 minutes to 60 minutes. Target Historyis a trail showing a targets movement. Target History can be turned On or Off. Own Vessel Safe Zoneis a circular area defined by a range setting that is centered on your own vessel. If a target enters the defined area an alarm is sounded. The Safe Zone can be set to a distance between.01 and 2 nautical miles. Time To Safe Zonesounds an alarm if MARPA determines that a target will intersect the Own Vessel Safe Zone within the defined time interval. The time interval settings range from 3 to 24 minutes. Safe Zone Ringdisplays a ring on the Radar Page depicting the Own Vessel Safe Zone. Velocity Referencehas two settings, Absolute and Relative. This setting determines how speed and direction are displayed on the MARPA list. Relative calculates target speed and direction relative to your own. Absolute shows the targets actual speed.

Satellite Information

What is WAAS/EGNOS?
Center dot - 90 above the horizon Inner ring- 45 above the horizon Outer ring the horizon
The Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) is an FAA-funded service to improve the overall integrity of the GPS signal for users in North America. In Europe, WAAS is referred to as EGNOS. The system is made up of satellites and approximately 25 ground reference stations positioned across the United States that monitor GPS satellite data. Two master stations, located on either coast, collect data from the reference stations and create a GPS data correction message. According to the FAAs Web site, testing of WAAS in September 2002 confirmed an accuracy performance of 12 meters horizontal and 23 meters vertical throughout the majority of the continental United States and portions of Alaska. WAAS is just one service provider that adheres to the Minimum Operational Performance Standard (MOPS) for global Satellite Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS). Eventually there will be several services of worldwide geostationary communication satellites that broadcast integrity information and differential correction data as transmitted by ground reference stations. All SBAS systems use the same receiver frequency; therefore any operational SBAS system should be capable of providing your GPS unit with increased accuracy at any location in the world. Currently, enabling WAAS on your GPSMAP 3005C in regions that are not supported by ground stations might not improve accuracy, even when receiving signals from an SBAS satellite. In fact, it can degrade the accuracy to less than that provided by GPS satellites alone. For this reason, when you enable WAAS on your Garmin GPS receiver, the receiver automatically uses the method that achieves the best accuracy. For more information, go to http://gps.faa.gov.
