2. Select a data field.

3. Press OK to cycle through available data fields.

Data Fields

• AVG : Displays the average velocity recorded in the current session.
• EXT SPRD: Displays the extreme spread of the shot velocities recorded in the current session. Extreme spread is the difference between the fastest and slowest velocities recorded.
• MAX: Displays the maximum velocity recorded in the current session.
• MIN: Displays the minimum velocity recorded in the current session.
• STD DEV: Displays the standard deviation of shot velocities in the current session. The standard deviation is a number that shows how much recorded velocities deviate from the average velocity recorded. A high standard deviation means that the recorded velocities are more spread out from the average velocity recorded. A low standard deviation means that the recorded velocities are close to the average velocity recorded.

Troubleshooting

The chronograph is not detecting my shot velocity
You can perform these actions to help determine why the chronograph isn’t detecting your velocity.

• Verify the chronograph is facing the target. With the screen facing you, the large, flat side of the chronograph should point at the target.
• Verify the target is at least 20 meters or 20 yards from the chronograph.
• Verify the session is active. The shot data screen appears while the session is active.

The device withstands incidental exposure to water of up 1 m for 30 min. For more information, go www.garmin.com/waterrating

The chronograph is detecting shots from the shooter next to me
It is possible for the chronograph to detect shots from adjacent shooters. For best results, you should always ensure the nearest shooter is at least 1.5 m (5 ft.) from your location.
