Tank pressure data field

Is there a tank pressure data field one can add to a custom data page?

  • Single gas dive
  • Big numbers
  • T2 transmitter

I thought I have added it, but after removing the custom page accidentally I can't find it anymore.

  • You can’t add it to custom page unfortunately. Not sure why but it’s only available on the tank page.

  • This is what i am missing most compared to my old suunto. As the most expensive dive watch you should think it should be possible to add your tank pressure to a custom field. And even show it visual as an bar/arc.

    I think garmin has to integrate the tank sensor better in to the diving settings. Now there are some settings in the dive alarms page and you can also set other dive alarms in the sensor page.

    I really think now with the suunto ocean around garmin has to step up in the software development if the want to stay the best diving watch.

  • I thought it was there, maybe in the previous firmware, and when I changed the pages of the activity with the most recent firmware it crashed/rebooted and afterwards I could not find it anymore. Maybe my mind is playing tricks on me or I simply get old. ;)

  • I have the watch almost from day1 and I have never been able to find it.

    What I do now is remove most pages and only keep one custom page a compass page and the transmitter page. Also i use big numbers setting. Now you can use the down button to switch quickly between compass and tank pressure in the top segment.

    But my goal was to show the compass and the tankpressure at the same time. But I never managed to do this.

  • Ok i found it.. sort of. What you can do is add the dive info page. (Duik gegevens in dutch) not the dive dashboard. When you customise this page you can choos a different layout, at least when you have big numbers on. This alternative layout shows your tank pressure instead of 2 info fields. You still get one customisable info field on the top using this layout. I set that one to the compass widget and i finally have my compass and tankpressure in one page

    Still i think garmin should allow you to add the tankpressure to any customisable field.

  • Thanks. That is interesting. If I do this the watch reboots. Using Garmin Connect the dive data page only has a single data field you can change and there is no option to change the layout.

  • I guess i had the same problem at first. Every time i added the page the watch would reboot and the page was not added. I had to delete all pages from the garmin app, synchronise with the watch and then i could add the page from the garmin app.

    You are also right that you cannot change the layout from the garmin app you have to use the menu in the watch to change it.

  • There are some inconsistencies with configuring the data pages of dive activities between GC and on the watch itself.

    • Layout can't be selected in GC
    • Some pages with 2 or 3 customizable fields on the watch have only one customizable in GC
    • Reboots when editing pages. Have not found out what exactly is the cause, but could be related to the tank pressure data field
    • Tank pressure should be availabe for all customizable data fields on any page esp the custom data page
  • Hi garmin laurie,

    Not sure if you work for garmin or not. But if so can you pass the not being able to add tank pressure to a custom field as a bug to development?

    I tried every screen and every field.
