Troubleshooting

Ranging Accuracy

External factors may affect ranging accuracy, such as ambient 

light, weather conditions, target reflectivity, and target size.
• The device can target longer ranges in lower light conditions, 

such as on overcast days. Bright sunlight minimizes ranging 

ability.

• Rain minimizes ranging ability.
• The device can target longer ranges when measuring the 

distance to brightly colored, reflective, or shiny objects. Black 

objects are less reflective, and can be targeted at shorter 

ranges.

• Larger objects are easier to target than smaller objects. For 

example, you should target the flag instead of the pin.

• The device can target longer ranges when the angle to the 

target is closer to 90 degrees. A smaller angle to the target 

limits ranging ability.

Acquiring Satellite Signals

The device may need a clear view of the sky to acquire satellite 

signals. The time and date are set automatically based on the 

GPS position.

1

Go outdoors to an open area.
The top of the device should be oriented toward the sky.

2

Wait while the device locates satellites.
It may take 30–60 seconds to locate satellite signals.

My device cannot find nearby golf courses

If a course update is interrupted or canceled before it completes, 

your device may be missing course data. To repair missing 

course data, you must update the courses again.

1

Download and install course updates from the Garmin 

Express

 application (

Product Updates

, page 5

).

2

Safely disconnect your device (

Disconnecting the USB 

Cable

, page 4

).

3

Go outside, and start a test round of golf to verify the device 

finds nearby courses.

Disconnecting the USB Cable

If your device is connected to your computer as a removable 

drive or volume, you must safely disconnect your device from 

your computer to avoid data loss. If your device is connected to 

your Windows

®

 computer as a portable device, it is not 

necessary to safely disconnect the device.

1

Complete an action:
• For Windows computers, select the 

Safely Remove 

Hardware

 icon in the system tray, and select your device.

• For Apple

®

 computers, select the device, and select
