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 way- point, but will also visually check to make sure a

Section 1: Read Me First! How this manual can get you out on the road, fast! Welcome to the exciting world of GPS satellite navigation! We know you're anxious to begin finding your way with this space-age technol- ® ogy, but we have a favor to ask. Before you grab the GlobalMap and begin installing it, please give us a moment or two to explain how our manual can help you get the best performance from your high- resolution, high-performance GPS+WAAS chart recorder. First, we want to thank y

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 ex- perience), you may want to try out some of the GlobalMap'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 alp

How Lowrance GPS Works You'll navigate faster and easier if you understand how the GlobalMap scans the sky to tell you where you are on the earth — and, where you're going (But if you already have a working understanding of GPS receivers and the GPS navigation system, skip on ahead to Section 2, Installation & Accessories on page 9. If you're new to GPS, read on, and you can later impress your friends with your new-found knowledge.). First, think of your unit as a small but powerful compu

Think of this data storage like the hard drive memory in a computer or a tape in a cassette tape recorder. You can save several different GPS data files, erase 'em and record new ones, over and over again. Like any com- puter file, these GPS Data Files (file format *.usr) can be shared be- tween Lowrance GPS or sonar/GPS units or even personal computers. This GlobalMap has one more thing in common with a personal com- puter. Just as computers have a floppy disk drive for storing and ex- chang

9, so you can mount your GlobalMap and plug in the power. Or you might want to see how our text formatting makes the manual tutorials easy to skim. If that's the case, move on to "How to Use This Manual" on page 7. But, if you want to understand the current state of satellite navigation, look over this segment describing how GPS and its new companion WAAS work together to get you where you're going. The Global Positioning System (GPS) was launched July 17, 1995 by the United States Depart

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 a compass or any other navigation aid built inside. It relies solely on the signals from the satel- lites to calculate a position. Speed, direction of travel, and distance are all calcul

How to use this manual: typographical conventions Many instructions are listed as numbered steps. The keypad and arrow "keystrokes" appear as boldface type. So, if you're in a real hurry (or just need a reminder), you can skim the instructions and pick out what menu command to use by finding the boldface command text. The fol- lowing paragraphs explain how to interpret the text formatting for those commands and other instructions: Arrow Keys The arrow keys control the movement of dotted c

Step 2 would mean: "Press the down arrow key repeatedly to scroll to the trail named Trail 1, and press Enter. Next, press the right arrow key and then the down arrow key to highlight the Navigate command, then press Enter." NOTE: There are slight differences in menu structure among the Global- Map models covered in this manual. The differences are m

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 co

You need to select an antenna installation location that has a clear, un- obstructed view of the sky. After the module is installed, connect it to the unit. The LGC-3000 can communicate with your GPS unit either directly ® (using the supplied extension cable) or through a NMEA 2000 network. NOTE: See the module’s instruction sheet, publication part number 988- 0154-651, for complete installation instructions. In an automobile, you may achieve good results by simply placing the external a

NOTE: There are two basic power connection options, which are shown in the following two diagrams. Read the following instructions carefully to determine which power connection applies to your unit. De- pending on your configuration, you may not use all of these wires. Caution: All of the wires in the power/data cable have bare ends for eas- ier installation. The bare ends on any unused wires could cause an electrical short if left exposed. To prevent this, you should cover the individual

this unit could be damaged to a point that it is irreparable and could even cause harm to the user when not properly fused. Failure to use a 3-amp fuse will void your warranty. If possible, keep the power cable away from other boat wiring, especially the engine's wires. This will provide the best isolation from electrical noise. If the cable is not long enough, splice #18 gauge wire onto it. The display power cable has two wires, red and black. Red is the positive (+) lead, black is negat
