vi 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.
1 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 hand-held technol- ogy, but we have a favor to ask.
2 Easy Mode operation will meet the navigation needs of many users. But, after you've learned the basics (or if you already have some GPS experience), you may want to try out some of the iFINDER's many ad- vanced navigation features. That brings us to Section 4 , Advanced Mode Operation .
3 Input power: ...................... 3 volts DC (two 1.5v AA batteries); operates up to 12 hours on batteries when using one-second position updates (longer update rates further extend battery life, but will reduce GPS accu- racy). Cigarette lighter power adapter in- cluded.
4 Position points: ............. 1,000 waypoints; 1,000 event marker icons. Graphic symbols for waypoints or event marker icons: ................. 42. Routes: ............................. 100; up to 100 waypoints per route. Plot Trails: .............
5 The iFINDER listens to signals from as many satellites as it can see above the horizon, eliminates the weakest signals, then computes its loca- tion in relation to the remaining satellites. Once the iFINDER figures its latitude and longitude, it plots that position on the moving map shown on the screen.
6 ate software. These MapCreate custom maps contain much greater de- tail than the basic background map. These Custom Map Files (file format *.lcm) can also be shared be- tween iFINDERs, other Lowrance GPS or sonar/GPS units and per- sonal computers. You make your own Custom Map Files with our MapCreate software, but you don't have to.
7 A minimum of three satellites are required to determine a 2D fix. The system requires signal reception from three satellites in order to 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).
8 There, however, are some fringe areas of the U.S., including parts of Alaska, that do not yet receive robust WAAS coverage. Continued WAAS development is planned to extend WAAS coverage in the years to come. WAAS boosts the accuracy of land GPS navigation, but the system is designed for aircraft.
9 some kind with the menu item. Text that you may need to enter or file names you need to select are shown in italic type, such as trail name . Instructions = Menu Sequences Most functions you perform with the iFINDER are described as a se- quence of key strokes and selecting menu commands.
10 Notes.
11 Section 2: Installation & Accessories Power The iFINDER operates from AA batteries or on 3 volts DC using an optional external power cable with a cigarette lighter adapter. When the power cable is used, the iFINDER automatically switches to exter- nal power.
12 Do not mix different battery types. Mixing battery types may cause leak- age. (For example, don’t use both alkaline and NiMH batteries at the same time, and don't use standard alkalines with rechargeable alkalines.) Battery Installation Turn the unit over so that the back is facing you.
13 Replace battery compartment cover. Align tabs with slots in the base (left). Press latch firmly until it clicks (right). Cigarette Lighter Power Adapter To use external DC power, plug the power cable's cigarette lighter adapter into a cigarette lighter receptacle.
14 NMEA Cable Connections NMEA is a standard communications format for marine electronic equipment. For example, an autopilot can connect to the NMEA interface on this unit and receive positioning information. The unit can exchange information with any device that transmits or receives NMEA 0183 data.
