WARNING! A CAREFUL NAVIGATOR NEVER RELIES ON ONLY ONE METHOD TO OBTAIN POSITION INFORMATION. CAUTION When showing navigation data to a position (waypoint), a GPS unit will show the shortest, most direct path to the waypoint. It provides navigation data to the waypoint regardless of obstructions. Therefore, the prudent navigator will not only take advantage of all available navigation tools when traveling to a waypoint, but will also visually check to make sure a clear, safe path to the waypoint

Section 3 contains short, easy-to-scan GPS lessons that follow one an- other in chronological order. They're all you'll need to know to find your way on the water or in the wilderness quickly. After you've learned the basics (or if you already have some GPS expe- rience), you may want to try out some of the IntelliMap 320's many ad- vanced navigation features. That brings us to Section 4, Advanced GPS Operations. This section contains the rest of the unit's GPS command functions, organized in al

NOTE: The above memory capacities refer only to the IntelliMap 320's on- board memory. The amount of GPS data you can record and save for recall later is only limited by the number of MMC cards you have. NOTICE! The storage temperature range for your IntelliMap 320 is from -4 de- grees to +167 degrees Fahrenheit (-20 degrees to +75 degrees Celsius). Extended storage in temperatures higher or lower than specified will damage the liquid crystal display in your unit. This type of damage is not cove

The background map is suitable for many navigation chores, but for maximum accuracy and much more detail, you need our optional map- making software, MapCreate 6. Some unit features — such as searching for businesses and addresses — won't work without a custom MapCreate map. There is so much detail in our background map (and even more in MapCreate) that we'll describe their contents and differ- ences in Section 6, Basic GPS Operations, on page 21. Another portion of the IntelliMap 320's onboard

Introduction to GPS and WAAS Well, now you know the basics of how the unit does its work. You might be ready to jump ahead to Section 2, Installation & Accessories, on page 11, so you can mount your IntelliMap 320 and plug in the power. Or you might want to see how our text formatting makes the manual tuto- rials easy to skim. If that's the case, move on to "How to Use This Man- ual" on page 8. But, if you want to understand the current state of sat- ellite navigation, look over this segment des

determine a position. This is called a 2D fix. It takes four satellites to determine both position and elevation (your height above sea level — also called altitude). This is called a 3D fix. Remember, the unit must have a clear view of the satellites in order to receive their signals. Unlike radio or television signals, GPS works at very high frequencies. These signals can be easily blocked by trees, buildings, an automobile roof, even your body. Like most GPS receivers, this unit doesn’t have

Also remember that this unit will always show navigation information in the shortest line from your present position to a waypoint, regardless of terrain! It only calculates position, it can’t know what’s between you and your destination, for example. It’s up to you to safely navigate around obstacles, no matter how you’re using this product.

Section 2: Installation & Accessories Preparations You can install the GPS system in some other order if you prefer, but we recommend this installation sequence: Caution: You should read over this entire installation section before drill- ing any holes in your vehicle or vessel! 1. Determine the approximate location for the GPS unit, so you can plan how and where to route the cables for the antenna and power. This will help you make sure you have enough cable length for the de- sired configurati

You need to select an antenna installation location that has a clear, un- obstructed view of the sky. After the module is installed, route the cable to the unit, plug it in the center socket on the back and your system is ready to use. See the module's instruction sheet, publication part num- ber 988-0148-37, for complete installation directions. In an automobile, you may achieve good results by simply placing the external antenna on the top of the dash, at the base of the windshield. A piece of

Bracket Installation Mount the IntelliMap 320 in any convenient location, provided there is clearance behind the unit when it's tilted for the best viewing angle. You should also make sure there is enough room behind the IntelliMap 320 to attach the power and GPS antenna/receiver module cables. (A drawing on the next page shows the dimensions of a gimbal-mounted IntelliMap 320.) Holes in the bracket's base allow wood screw or through-bolt mounting. You may need to place a piece of plywood on the
