The Garmin fenix 5x Handbook

By Colette Toomer Cruz

I have been using Garmin GPS devices for decades, but when I bought my Garmin fenix 5x I was overwhelmed by its complexity. The fenix does dozens of things but there are only 5 buttons to make it operate. As I do in such situations, I tried to find a book that would describe all of the fenix capabilities and how to make them work. I couldn't find any - except for one in German. So I decided to research and experiment with the fenix 5x and write down what I found. This book is the result.This book describes the fenix user interface in great detail. It also describes the fenix 5x "system" which includes the Garmin Connect app for your cell phone, the Garmin Express app for your computer, the Garmin Connect on-line app and, finally, how to use Garmin BaseCamp to plan activities that will be accomplished using the fenix 5x.It is impossible to fit everything the fenix can do into one small book. All of the examples used throughout this book are based on the Hike activity. I believe that the Running and Cycling activities will operate identically to the Hike activity. But there is nothing in this book about using the fenix for Golf nor for Swimming nor for using Exercise Equipment. Even so, what is in this book will provide a good background no matter what activity you wish to pursue.
