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 GlobalMap 4800's many advanced navigation features. That brings us to Section 4, Advanced GPS Operations. This section contains the rest of the unit's GPS com- mand functions, organized in al

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 3, Basic GPS Operations, on page 31. Another portion of the GlobalMap 4800'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 GlobalMap 4800 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

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). 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

receiver is only a tool. Always have another method of navigation avail- able, such as a map or chart and a compass. 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. How to use this manual: typographical

For example, instructions for navigating a trail would look like this: 1. From the Map Page, press MENU|MENU|↓ to MY TRAILS|ENT. 2. Press ↓ to Trail 1|ENT|→|↓ to NAVIGATE|ENT. 3. You are asked to wait while it converts the trail into a route. 4. The wait message disappears and the GlobalMap 4800 begins showing navigation information along the trail. Now, begin moving and follow your GlobalMap 4800. Translated into complete English, step 1 above would mean: "Start on the Map Page. Press the Menu

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, connect it to the end of the Y-adapter extension cable as shown in the following dia- gram. To connect it to the unit, insert the cable's splitter plug into the Network socket on the back of the unit and your system is ready to use. (When looking at the back case, the left socket is for the power/data cable and the network socket is second from left.) See the modul

Power Supply wires: red, black and white To unit NMEA-2000 Power wires: red, black and shield Data Cable wires: blue, yellow, orange and shield The Power/Data cable for this unit. Depending on your configuration, you may not use all of these wires. (For example, many units cannot operate an optional external speaker, so the white wire on the Power Supply cable isn't functional.) The fol- lowing segments include instructions for installing all the wires that you will use with this unit. Powering

CAUTION: When using the unit in a saltwater environment, we strongly rec- ommend that you shut off the power supply to the power cable when the unit is not in use. When the unit is turned off but still connected to a power supply, electrolysis can occur in the power cable plug. This may result in corrosion of the plug body along with the electri- cal contacts in the cable and the unit's power socket. In saltwater environments we recommend you connect the power cable to the auxiliary power switch
