Here's two quick Garmin eTrex 20 tips - how to take screenshots, and how to create a startup message.
The three current eTrex models are very similar, so this tutorial should also work on the eTrex 10 and eTrex 30. I'm assuming that screenshots on the eTrex 10 will be black and white, as that model has a black and white screen. If anyone happens to have an eTrex 10 and wants to try this out and leave a comment, that would be great.
How to take Screenshots
Setting your GPS up to take screenshots is a snap. In the menu, click on Setup.
Next, click on Display.
Select Screen Capture and change the setting from Off to On.
Any time you see something on your screen that you wish to capture, press the Power / Light button. Instead of popping up with the brightness settings, a screenshot is taken, and the file is left scrn subfolder of the Garmin folder. Connect your GPS to your computer, navigate to that folder (shown below), and you're all set.

Hi Jason! I was just wondering if you knew whether this setting should stay on or not? I set Screen Capture on, but it seems to reset each time I turn my eTrex 20 off, and I need to alter the setting again when I turn it on again.

A critical thing to be remembered while searching for a decent GPS framework is the components accessible. What all elements do we require? Whether our necessities are met by a standard GPS framework or do we have to go in for a more complex one with some extra capacities If we require a straightforward GPS framework we ought not go for something over the value scope of $500. https://www.engadget.com/2016/09/23/what-does-gps-actually-do-other-than-tracking/
