Customizing and Sharing the Main Menu
You can customize the main menu, save your customization as a new profile, and share the profile with other
Montana devices. This allows you to display the same main menu settings on multiple devices. This can be
useful if you share multiple devices with other users in your organization.
1 Customize the main menu by adding, moving, and deleting items as needed (Customizing the Main Menu,
page 34).
2 Create a new profile (Creating a Custom Profile, page 53).
The new profile is created with a default name and number. For example, Profile 10. Your main menu
customizations are saved to the new profile.
3 Change the name of your new profile to something easily recognizable (Editing a Profile Name, page 54).
4 Connect the device to your computer using the USB cable (Connecting the Device to Your Computer,
page 58).
5 On your computer, open the file browser, and open the Garmin > Profiles folder.
6 Copy the .gpf file with the recognizable profile name to your computer.
7 Connect the next Montana device to your computer, and copy the .gpf file to the Garmin > Profiles folder.
8 On the Montana device, select Profile Change from the main menu to select the new profile (Selecting a
Profile, page 43).
9 Repeat steps 5 through 8 for each additional Montana device.
