Profiles

Profiles are a collection of settings that optimize your device 

based on how you are using it. For example, the settings and 

views are different when you use the device for hunting than 

when geocaching.
When you are using a profile and you change settings, such as 

data fields or units of measurement, the changes are saved 

automatically as part of the profile.
