Description - Version 3.3

Calculate and display your current Gradient (Grade)

* For use with devices which do not support a native Grade Data Field
* New option to increase font
* Now records to Grade Activity Recording
* Data is dependent on the accuracy of the GPS Data. There is a possibility this data will differ from devices with a native Barometric altimeter.
* A maximum Gradient is also available

A Data Field which shows your current gradient based on a configurable distance.

The data is recorded to the Activity FIT File

The configurable settings are:
- Frequency: The distance (in metres) for the grade to be calculated. The default is 100 metres. Shorter distances will give more updates, but with a greater chance of variation.
- Ignore Poor GPS Data: When the GPS data quality drops, the data field can ignore, which stops the possibility of incorrect readings. The display will show _._% if this occurs.
- Hide Percent Symbol: This option hides the percent (%) symbol, which can increase the available font selected on some devices.
- Hide Minus Symbol: This option hides the minus (-) symbol, which can increase the available font selected on some devices.

The Frequency Setting (in metres) will be displayed as a reminder before the first gradient is processed.

The options can be changed within Garmin Express on your desktop or mobile device. See the following link for more details http://bit.ly/1YZTvye
