Garmin Approach R10

We have an experimental Approach R10 integration with our OGS Core simulator software. Below you’ll find instructions and troubleshooting tips for connecting your Approach R10.

Windows Setup

First, you’ll need to add the Approach R10 to your paired bluetooth devices in Windows.

  1. Open Settings > Bluetooth
  2. Select Add Bluetooth device
  3. Turn Approach R10 on in pairing mode (hold down the power button)
  4. Select device when discovered. The device should briefly connect and then disconnect. This is normal, just make sure the device remains in your paired devices list.

OpenGolfSim

To setup the Approach R10 as your primary OpenGolfSim launch monitor:

  1. Open OpenGolfSim Desktop and select Simulator in the sidebar.

  2. When prompted to configure your launch monitor, selected the Approach R10 option.
    (Note: If you have already setup a launch monitor, you can go to Settings > Shot Data to change your launch monitor)

  3. The required tools will be downloaded automatically on the next step.

Operation

Once the initial setup is complete, the launch monitor should automatically pair with OpenGolfSim when turned on.
