FOREWORD............................................ iii
Congratulations on your choice of the
FURUNO DD-80 dual differential GPS navigation system. We are confident you will see
why the FURUNO name has become synonymous with quality and reliability.
For over 50 years FURUNO Electric Company has enjoyed an enviable reputation for
innovative and dependable marine electronics equipment. This dedication to excellence
is furthered by our extensive global network
of agents and dealers.
This equipment is designed and constructed
to meet the rigorous demands of the marine
environment. However, no machine can perform its intended function unless operated and
maintained properly . Please carefully read and
follow the recommended procedures for operation and maintenance.
We would appreciate hearing from you, the
end-user, about whether we are achieving our
purposes.
Thank you for considering and purchasing
FURUNO equipment.
The main features of the DD-80 are
•Comprehensive navigation data displays
•Storage for 999 waypoints and 30 routes
• Alarms: Arrival, Anchor Watch, Crosstrack Error, Speed, Water Temperature,
Depth, and Trip
•Man overboard feature records latitude and
longitude coordinates at time of man overboard and provides continuous updates of
range and bearing to that point
•Menu-driven operation
•Bright 122 x 92 mm LCD with temperature compensated tone and brilliance adjustment
•Power consumption is a low 10 W per navigator.
•Connection of autopilot (option) – steering data output to autopilot
•Digital display of water temperature and
depth with connection of video sounder
having IEC 61162-1/NMEA input
•Memory stores 2,000 points of track and
marks
•3D "Highway" display shows ship's track
overlaid on intended course
•Position may be shown in latitude and longitude or LOP (Loran or Decca)
• Navaid information (lighthouse data,
lighted buoys, etc.) can be displayed by
downloading database from personal computer.
Features
The DD-80 consists of two dual differential
GPS navigator systems and an interface unit.
Each GPS navigator consists of a display unit
combining a GPS receiver, beacon receiver
and video plotter, a GPS antenna and a beacon antenna. The interface unit functions to
exchange data between the GPS navigators
and external equipment. A high sensitivity
receiver tracks up to eight satellites simultaneously . An 8-state Kalman filter ensures optimum accuracy in determination of vessel
position, course and speed.

1.6 The Interface Unit
The Interface Unit IF-2500 outputs data received from the navigators to external equipment. Operational status is shown by the LEDs
on the unit. For further details, see APPENDIX B of this manual. For how to select data
to output, see paragraph 8.4 Outputting Data.
Output data conventions
Figure 1-20
Press any key to erase the message. Follow
"Transmitting data" in this paragraph to transmit data again.
Since both navigators output data to the IF2500 (through two ports on the interface) confusion would reign if it were to try to output
two sets of mostly identical data. Therefore,
data output is governed by the following rules:
•When both navigators are outputting data
correctly, data received at the port having
higher priority is output.
•When the GPS abnormal receive signal is
received at the port having higher priority,
data received from the other port is output.
• 30 seconds after data received at the port
having higher priority becomes normal,
the interface resumes outputting data received from that port.
• When data from both navigators is in er-
ror, data received at the port having higher
priority is output.
• Arrival alarm signal or cross track error
alarm is converted to a contact signal and
output when received at the port having
higher priority.
•When no data is received from one or both
navigators, a contact signal is output.

and Recording of T rack
The DD-80 stores 2,000 points of track and
marks. When the memory becomes full the
oldest track is erased to make room for the
latest. Thus you may want to conserve the
memory when, for example, you are returning to port or are anchored, by stopping plotting and recording of the track.
Procedure
Press the [PLOT ON/OFF] key to start/stop
recording and plotting of track.

4.4 Entering Routes
Often a trip from one place to another involves
several course changes, requiring a series of
route points which you navigate to, one after
another. The sequence of waypoints leading
to the ultimate destination is called a route.
The DD-80 can automatically advance to the
next waypoint on a route, so you do not have
to change the destination waypoint repeatedly .
The DD-80 can store 30 routes and each route
may contain up to 30 waypoints. Routes can
be registered while in the Plotter 1 or Plotter
2 display mode. Routes are mutually registered when the navigators are sharing data.

The range and bearing to a destination are calculated by two ways; Great Circle or Rhumb
Line. However, cross track error is calculated
by rhumb line only.
Great Circle: The great circle courseline is
the shortest course between two points on the
surface of the earth. (Imagine stretching a
piece of yarn between two points on the earth.)
However, this course requires frequent change
of heading to follow course faithfully.
2) If necessary press to switch from
North latitude and to South latitude
vice versa.
3) Key in latitude.
4) If necessary press to switch from W est
longitude to East longitude and vice

a nautical chart. This course does not require
frequent changes of heading however it is not
the shortest since it follows the earth's curvature.

8.1 GPS Menu
Menu description
Fix mode
may change randomly depending on receiving conditions and other factors. You can reduce this random variation by increasing the
smoothing. Like with latitude and longitude
smoothing, the higher the speed and course
smoothing the more smoothed the raw data.
If the setting is too high, however, the response
to speed and course change slows. For no
smoothing, enter "0." "5" is suitable for most
conditions.
Two position fixing modes are available: 2D
and 2/3D. The 2D mode provides two dimensional position fixes (latitude and longitude
only) and is used when three satellites are in
line of sight of the GPS receiver.
The 2/3D mode switches between two and
three dimension position fixing automatically
depending on how many satellites (three or
four) are in light of sight of the GPS receiver.
Disable satellite
Every GPS satellite is broadcasting abnormal
satellite number(s) in the Almanac. Using this
information, the GPS receiver automatically
eliminates any malfunctioning satellite from
the GPS satellite schedule. However, the Almanac sometimes may not contain this information. You can disable an inoperative
satellite manually on the GPS SETUP menu.
GPS smoothing, position
When the DOP or receiving condition is unfavorable, the GPS fix may change greatly,
even if the vessel is dead in water. This change
can be reduced by smoothing the raw GPS
fixes. A setting between 0 and 9 is available.
The higher the setting the more smoothed the
raw data, however too high a setting slows
response time to change in latitude and longitude. This is especially noticeable at high
ship’s speeds. "0" is the normal setting; increase the setting if the GPS fix changes
greatly.
GPS smoothing, speed
Speed average
Calculation of ET A and TTG, etc. is based on
average ship’ s speed over a given period. The
default setting is one minute.
Geodetic datum
Select the geodetic chart system you are using. WGS-84 (standard GPS chart system) and
NAD 27 can be directly selected. For other
charts, select "OTHER" and enter chart number referring to the geodetic chart list in the
Appendix.
Position offset
You may apply an offset to position generated by the internal GPS receiver, to compensate for difference between GPS position and
chart position.
Time difference
The GPS system uses UTC time. If you would
rather use local time, enter the difference in
hours between local time and UTC. Use the
[+] and [–] keys for times later or earlier than
UTC, respectively.
Position
Enter ship's position when cold starting (no
satellite information in memory) the GPS receiver, to fix position faster . Accuracy should
be within 10°.
During position fixing, ship’ s velocity (speed
and course) is directly measured by receiving
GPS satellite signals. The raw velocity data

10.2 How the GPS Receiver
Calculates Position
The basic steps in position fixing are as follows:
10.1 What is GPS?
GPS is an acronym meaning Global Positioning System. GPS is a highly precise satellite
navigation system developed by the U.S. Department of Defense.
A constellation of 24 satellites emplaced in
nearly 20,000-kilometer high 12-hour circular orbits provides highly precise, continuous,
worldwide, all-weather position plus time and
velocity information to GPS receiverequipped vehicles, vessels and aircraft.
All GPS satellites transmit at the same frequency of 1575.42 MHz, and each satellite
has a unique signal coding scheme, so that it
can be identified by a GPS receiver .
1) GPS satellites continually transmit their
own precise orbital data called ephemeris.
The GPS receiver computes satellites’
position by this data.
2) The GPS receiver measures very accurate
distance to the satellites.
3) The GPS receiver fixes its position by the
intersecting point of three satellite positions.

3 Position fix is point of intersection
of three spheres which are draw
around the three satellites with
diameter d1, d2 and d3.

10.3 What is Differential GPS
(DGPS)?
GPS
satellite
Differential GPS is based upon accurate
knowledge of the accurate geograhical location of a reference station which is used to
compute corrections to GPS parameters, error sources and resultant positions. These differential corrections are transmitted to GPS
users, who apply the corrections to their received GPS signals or computed position. For
civil users, differential corrections can improve navigational accuracy from 100 meters
to better than 3 meters.
The DPGS reference stations, located throughout North America and Europe, are fixed at a
geodetically surveyed position. The reference
station tracks all satellites in view , downloads
ephemeric data from them, and computes corrections based on its measurement and geodetic position. These corrections are then
broadcast to GPS users by radio beacons to
improve their position solution.
Corrections sent

Figure 10-3 DGPS system concept
The radio beacons broadcast in the frequency
range of 285–325 kHz and have a transmitting range from 40 nm to 300 nm depending
on radio beacon.

Each GPS satellite broadcasts its own orbital
data as well as general orbital data of all other
GPS satellites. This general orbital data is
called the Almanac. The GPS receiver
receives the Almanac and decodes it to
calculate the quantity and elevation angle of
satellites in view , to know when it can receive
the GPS signal. If there is no Almanac in the
receiver it cannot fix its position. The receiver
is shipped with no Almanac, thus when it is
turned on for the first time it starts receiving
the Almanac. Each time the unit is turned on
the previous Almanac is erased and the latest
received.
Differential GPS (DGPS)
The differential GPS system, consisting of
DGPS land stations and DPGS beacon
receiver-equipped marine vessels, further
refines the accuracy of the GPS measured
position.
A DGPS land station knows its exact position.
If there is a difference between GPS position
and DGPS land station's position this is called
GPS error. The DPGS station transmits GPS
error data to a beacon receiver which relays
the data to the GPS receiver . The GPS receiver
uses this data to refine the accuracy of the GPS
position (within about 10 meters under ideal
conditions).
DGPS stations are strategically located
throughout America (including Hawaii and
Alaska), Europe, Canada, Bermuda and
Brazil.
Beacon receiver
The DGPS (Differential GPS) station
transmits a beacon signal which contains
information about GPS error. The device
which receives the beacon signal is called a
beacon receiver.
Cold start
When the GPS receiver is turned on for the
very first time, it starts receiving the Almanac.
This condition is called cold start. In this
condition it takes about two minutes to find
position. Once the Almanac is stored in the
GPS navigator, it takes only about 20 seconds
to find position. (The normal start-up
condition is called warm start.)
Destination
A destination can be either a single destination
waypoint or a series of waypoints leading to
the ultimate destination. When you set a
destination, the GPS receiver provides range
and bearing data to the destination, to help
you steer to the destination along the shortest
past possible.
Estimated time of arrival (ETA)
The time at which you arrive at the ultimate
destination.
Geodetic chart
A nautical chart is usually made by either
trigonometrical survey or astronomical survey
and according to the geodetic chart standards
of the country where it is used. The GPS
standard chart system is WGS-84.
Thus if you are using a chart different from
WGS-84, there will be error between GPS
position and nautical chart position. To get
correct position, the GPS receiver must know
what chart system you are using, to apply an
offset to GPS position.
GPS measured position
GPS measured latitude and longitude position.
Intermediate waypoint
A waypoint in a route.
A–10
Magnetic bearing
Route
Bearing relative to magnetic north, with the
compass bearing corrected for deviation.
Magnetic variation offset
The location of the magnetic north pole is
different from the geographical north pole.
This causes a difference between the true and
magnetic north direction. This difference is
called magnetic variation, and varies with
respect to the observation point on the earth.
This variation may be entered automatically
or manually.
Navigation calculation
The GPS receiver calculates the range, bearing
and cross track error to next waypoint when
you select a destination. The calculation of
that data is called navigation calculation. The
calculation itself is done using one of two
methods (selectable): Great circle (straight
line between two points) or Rhumb line
(straight line between two points on nautical
chart).
NMEA 0183
The National Marine Electronics
Association's signal format which enables
connection of electronic equipment of
different marine electronics manufacturers.
Plotting interval
A series of waypoints leading to the ultimate
destination.
Route navigation
Following a stored route.
S/A
GPS was developed by the US Department
of Defense mainly for use by its marine
vessels and aircraft. For civil users the
accuracy of the system is purposely
downgraded for national security reasons.
This intentional accuracy reduction is called
S/A. Because GPS position error may be
greater than 100 meters any GPS position
should be double checked against other
sources to confirm position.
Skip
This means to bypass a waypoint in a route.
Storage capacity
Storage capacity defines how many points of
track and marks a memory can hold. The GP80's storage capacity is 2,000 points.
Time-to-go (TTG)
The amount of time necessary to get to a
destination, maintaining current speed and
course.
The plotting interval determines both how the
track will be reconstructed on the display and
track storage time. The shorter the interval the
more accurate the reconstruction of track line,
however total storage time is reduced. The
plotting interval can be selected to time or
distance. Plotting by distance offers the
advantage that the track is not stored when
the vessel is anchored.
Time differences
Time differences (or TDs) are the position
information generated by the Loran C and
Decca position-fixing systems. TDs are the
time in microseconds between the
transmission of pulsed signals in the Loran C
and Decca systems.
Total distance
Total distance is the number of miles from
starting point to end point in a route.

Figure B-2 How to fabricate the signal cable
Grounding
To prevent electrical shock and mutual interference, run a ground wire between the earth
terminal on the unit and ship’s superstructure.
Cabling schedules
The signal cable should be a twisted-pair, double-screened cable. Ground the signal cable at
the cable clamp.

Input signal (NMEA)
The signal from DGPS is connected to J2 and J3. Data being fed to J2 has higher priority
than J3.
#1Alarm signal#1Alarm signal#1Alarm signal
#2Alarm signal#2Alarm signal#2Alarm signal
#3GND#3GND#3GND
Selection of output data format
The output data format is selectable by changing a jumper block; A for RS-422 and B for
NMEA. For example, to select NMEA for J4, change the jumper block from A to B on J401
and J402. Do the same on J5 thru J9.
Default of jumper setting is shown in parenthesis.
Maintenance
Fuse replacement
If the fuse blows, find the cause of the problem before replacing it. Do not use a fuse rated
more than 0.5A, since it may cause more serious damage to the equipment.
Self test 1
The unit performs an internal self-check in the following sequence each time power is turned
on.
1) LEDs CR7 to CR10 blink twice every 2 seconds.
2) ROM and RAM are tested.
3) LED CR13 blinks every second for normal operation. If an error is detected during the
test, the corresponding LED is turned on.
• When CR7 is on, ROM is defective.
• When CR8 is on, RAM is defective.
B–4
Self test 2
The test requires an external loop to check I/O. Follow the steps below to carry out the test.
1) Set the DIP switch #4 of S1 to the ON position.
2) Temporarily disconnect input and output connectors J2 and J4.
3) Solder a jumper block between J2 and J4; #3 and #4 of J2 are connected to #1 and #2 of
J4, respectively.
Jumper block consists of XH-6 pin and 4 pin connectors with two short wires as below.
XH, 6 pin XH, 4 pin
#3 - - - #1
#4 - - - #2
4) Change the jumper block between J2 and J5; J2/J6, J2/J7, J2/J8, J2/J9, J3/J4, J3/J5, J3/
J6, J2/J7, J2/J8, J2/J9.
LED status
The LEDs light according to equipment status as follows:
CR2: Lights when receiving NMEA data from J2.
CR3: Lights when sending NMEA data from J3.
CR4: Lights when sending NMEA data from J4 to J9.
CR6: Blinks every second.
CR7: Lights when ROM error is detected, or no signal at J2 for 300 ms.
CR8: Lights when RAM error is detected, or no signal at J3 for 300 ms.
CR9: Lights when SIO error is detected, or NMEA data is input at J2.
CR10: Lights when NMEA data is input at J2.

Mounting
3. ANTENNA UNIT
Install the antenna unit referring to the ins tallation diagram on p age D-4.
When select ing a mounting locat ion for the antenna unit, keep in mi nd the
following points.
• Select a location out of the radar beam. The radar beam will obstruct or
prevent reception of the GPS satellite signal.
• Be sure the location offers a clean line-of-sight to satellite. Objects
within line-of-sight to a satellite, for example, a mast or funnel, block
recepti o n and caus e prolonged acqui r i ng ti m e or inter r u pti o n o f posi tion fix.
• Mount the unit as high as possible. Mounting the antenna as high as
possible ke eps it free of wat er spra y, which can inte r cept reception of GPS
satellite sign al, if water spray is frozen.
• The antenna unit GPA-018S must be grounded. Connect gr ou nd wi r e o f
1.25 sq or larger (local supply) between unit and a stainless steel screw
fastened to the mast.
