Yet another Triton question

[+Insp Gadget]

Just received a Triton 2000 today. No idea how to set the time. Everytime I turn it on the time is at 1:00pm, then later on changes to 9:00am even though it's about 7pm. I have looked in the options but don;t see this listed.

To set up the time/date for your area.

 

Go to the map screen

 

Hit menu button

 

Then click VIEW

 

Then click PROFILES

 

Click on a profile that you want to use either Hiking/Marine/Geocaching

 

Click the page button

 

You'll see Backlight timer, Backlight timer etc.. click down until you see the settings for Time.... Then set them for your area... Note, Triton is such a (profanity removed) that it won't even adjust for daytime savings, you'll have to do it manually every six months....

 

Also each time you change the batteries or connect to VantagePoint, the time will be all messed up once again until it acquires the satellites.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Good luck with your 2000 unit, I hope you got a return policy for it.

I'm glad it's such a simple and straightforward process. I thought I might have to pat my head while rubbing my stomach, something I always found difficult to do.

 

BTW, with the new firmware it will now adjust for DST.

 

Thanks!
