On your Garmin tactix Delta smartwatches, you can change the Power Manager settings by following these instructions:

Allows you to customize system settings to extend battery life in watch mode.

Power Modes

Allows you to customize system settings, activity settings, and GPS settings to extend battery life during an activity.

Some Garmin watches offers a hot key option named Kill Switch. The Kill Switch allows you to reset your watch quickly, dumping any stored data and reverting the watch to factory settings.¹ You may find this option useful if you work in a position where data saved on your watch could be considered sensitive.

Note: The Kill Switch is not set by default. This is because the Kill Switch will perform a reset of your watch, and should only be set to a hot key if your data could be compromised. We recommend setting the Kill Switch to a two button combination hot key so that it is not accidentally engaged.²

Setting the Kill Switch Hot Key

1. 1. Hold Up/Menu
   2. Select System
   3. Select Hot Keys
   4. Select the hot key you would like the Kill Switch set to
   5. Select Kill Switch

¹The Kill Switch will perform a full master reset of your watch. Any saved data, sensor or device pairings, custom settings, and device history will be deleted when using the Kill Switch.

²When the Kill Switch is engaged a countdown timer will start, and the watch will power off and back on. It will then display an eraser icon for several minutes before returning to initial setup.

Stealth Mode can be enabled to turn off track logging and any wireless communication. Activities can still be started to monitor time, pace, elevation, and location, but this information will not be saved on the watch. Stealth Mode can not be enabled during an active activity and can only be enabled from the Control Menu.

Enabling/Disabling Stealth Mode:

NOTE: Save or discard your current activity before enabling Stealth Mode.

1. Press and Hold Light
2. Select

When enabled, Stealth Mode disables:

• Track/Activity Logging
• Bluetooth communication
• ANT+ Communication

1. Hold LIGHT.
2. Select the eye/moon symbol.

1. From any screen, hold START.
2. Select START.
3. If necessary, select DOWN to edit location information.

Warning: The jumpmaster feature is for use by experienced skydivers only. The jumpmaster feature should not be used as a primary skydiving altimeter. Failure to input the appropriate jump related information can lead to serious personal injury or death.

The jumpmaster feature follows military guidelines for calculating the high altitude release point (HARP). The device detects automatically when you have jumped to begin navigating toward the desired impact point (DIP) using the barometer and electronic compass.

Planning a Jump

You can use your tactix Delta watch with:

• • Alpha and Astro dog tracking and training handhelds and collars
  • InReach satellite communicators
  • GPSMAP 66i GPS handheld
  • VIRB cameras
  • Varia products
