3.1 What is a Point?

In navigation terminology, a point is any location you mark on the plotter display. A
point can be a fishing spot, reference point or other important locations. You can use
a point you have entered to set a destination and create a route.
This unit has 30,000 points into which you can enter position information. There are
three methods that you can use to mark a point:
• At the own ship's position

• At cursor position
• Enter position from [Points List]
When you enter a point, the point is put on the screen with the point symbol selected
as the default point symbol, with the youngest empty point number. The position of the
point, symbol and navigation information (range, bearing, etc.) are saved to [Points
List].

4. ROUTES
4.1 What is a Route?

Often a trip from one place to another involves several course changes, requiring a
series of route points (waypoints) which you navigate to, one after another. The se-
quence of waypoints leading to the ultimate destination is called a route. The equip-
ment can store 200 routes, with a maximum of 50 points per route.
You can follow a route that you have created, with the GOTO feature. When you follow
a route, a line with arrows connects between the points. The arrows show the direction
in which to follow the route.
You can create a route from [Home] and [Menu], and you can edit a route depending
on route status (active or inactive) and method.

This chapter shows you how to get to a desired destination by using “quick points,”
saved points, and routes.
Before you go to a point or follow a route, make sure the path is clear. Zoom your chart
to check for hazards which appear on a smaller scale.

arrows, connects between own ship and the quick point, your destination. The line
shows the shortest path to the destination and the arrows indicate the direction to
go to the destination.

north pole. This causes a difference between the true and magnetic north location.
This difference is called magnetic variation, and varies with respect to the observation
point on earth. Your unit is preprogrammed with all the earth's magnetic variations.

11.2 How to Replace the Fuse

The fuse in the fuse holder on the power cable protects the display unit from overcur-
rent and equipment fault. If you cannot turn on the power, check the fuse to see if it
has blown. If the fuse has blown, find the reason before you replace the fuse. If the
fuse blows again after the replacement, contact your dealer for advice.
WARNING
Use the proper fuse.
Use of a wrong fuse can result in fire and dam-

age the equipment.

Description of GPS status display

• The graphic at the right side of the display shows the position of each GPS satellite
in the sky. The circles are colored according to a satellite’s SNR. Green if the SNR
of the satellite is high enough to be used to fix position, or red if the SNR is too low
to be used to fix position.
• The bars in the graph at the left show the strength of the RX signal from each sat-
ellite. Satellites that have a signal level of 27 or higher are used to fix position. The
bars are colored in the same manner as the circles.
• HDOP (Horizontal Dilution of Precision) is an indication of the precision of the posi-
tion fix from the GPS based on the satellites it is currently using and their geometry.
The lower the number the more accurate the position fix. An HDOP of 4.0 or less is
considered good, and 20.0 and above will result in a loss of fix.
• PDOP (Position Dilution of Precision) is the accuracy of a 3D GPS position based
on the number of satellites and the geometry of satellite positions. PDOP ranges
from 0-99. The lower the number, the more accurate the data.

12. INSTALLATION
12.1 Installation of Display Unit

Installation notices
• The fuse portion of the fused power cable used with this equipment is not water-
proof.
• The power cable also functions as a signal cable. Check the interconnection dia-
gram before wiring.
• Do not connect the connector with wet hands. Electrical shock or equipment failure
can result.
• This equipment has a built-in GPS antenna. Therefore, select a location where
there are no obstacles overhead or in the surrounding area.
Locate the display unit away from radar and Inmarsat beams. If the installation site
causes reception problems, use antenna unit GPA-017 (option).
Install the unit in the upright position. Reception will be degraded if installed at an
angle.
• Paints, anti-rust and electrical contact cleaners contain organic solvents that can
deteriorate the coating and plastic parts of the equipment. Keep them away from the
equipment always.
Mounting considerations
The display unit is designed to be mounted on a tabletop, using the hanger supplied.
Select a suitable mounting location considering the following:
• Keep the display unit out of direct sunlight.

• The temperature and humidity should be moderate and stable.
• Locate the unit away from exhaust pipes and vents.
• The mounting location should be well ventilated.
• Mount the unit where shock and vibration are minimal.
• Keep the unit away from electromagnetic field generating equipment such as motor,
generator.
• For maintenance and checking purposes, leave sufficient space at the sides and
rear of the unit and leave slack in cables.
• A magnetic compass will be affected if placed too close to the display unit. Observe
the compass safe distances shown in the Safety Instructions to prevent interference
to a magnetic compass.
Mounting procedure
Follow the procedure below to mount the display unit. Refer to the outline drawing at
the back of this manual for mounting dimensions.
1. Fix the hanger by self-tapping screws (φ5×20, supplied).

2. Screw the knob bolts into the display unit, set the unit to the hanger, and tighten
the knob bolts.

12. INSTALLATION
12.2 Installation of Antenna Unit GPA-017 (option)

Mounting considerations
The antenna unit GPA-017 is available for receiving GPS signal with greater sensitiv-
ity.
Select a suitable mounting location considering the following:
• Select a location out of the radar beam. The radar beam will obstruct or prevent re-
ception of the GPS satellite signal.
• The location should be well away from a VHF antenna. A GPS receiver is interfered
by a harmonic wave of a VHF antenna.
• There should be no interfering object within the line-of-sight to the satellites. Objects
within line-of-sight to a satellite, for example, a mast, may block reception or prolong
acquisition time.
• Mount the antenna unit as high as possible. Mounting the antenna unit as high as
possible keeps it free of interfering objects and water spray, which can interrupt re-
ception of GPS satellite signal if the water freezes.
• If the antenna cable is to be passed through a hole which is not large enough to
pass the connector, you may unfasten the connector with a needle nose pliers and
3/8-inch open-end wrench. Refasten it as shown below after running the cable
through the hole.
