FOREWORD

A Word to DD-80 Owners
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.

1.2 Turning On and Off the Power

The DD-80 takes about two minutes to find position when turned on for the very first time. Other times it takes about 20 seconds.
Note: The GPS provides highly accurate po-
sition information. However, position should always be check against other aids to naviga­tion to confirm reliability, for the safety of vessel and crew.
Turning on the power
Press the [POWER] key. The unit tests the PROGRAM MEMORY,
SRAM and battery for proper operation and shows the results on the display. "BEACON RCVR INSTALLED" appears at the bottom of the display . The unit starts up with the last used display mode and that mode is indicated at the bottom of the display.

1.5 Transmitting Data

The GPS navigators share the data listed be­low when transmitting data to each other . Any action initiated against those data is automati­cally repeated on the other navigator . For ex­ample, if you register waypoint 27 on one navigator it will be registered on the other navigator under the same waypoint number.
• Alarm settings, alarm buzzer
• Destination data
• Disabled satellite data
• Error messages
• MOB/Event mark data
• Route data
• Waypoint data

Data is transmitted only once. When trans­mission error occurs, the following message appears.

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.

2.1 Enlarging/Shrinking the Display

You may enlarge/shrink the display on the Plotter 1 and Plotter 2 displays, with the [ZOOM IN] and [ZOOM OUT] keys. The horizontal range is available among 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128 and 192 nautical miles. For the Plotter 1 display the ranges are
0.36, 0.71, 1.42, 2.84, 5.69, 11.38, 22.76,
45.51, 91.02, 182.04 and 273.07 nautical miles.
The [ZOOM IN] key enlarges the display and the [ZOOM OUT] key shrinks it. Each time a zoom key is pressed the horizontal range ap­pears at the center of the display for about three seconds.

2.2 Display Orientation

Ship's heading or course is at the top of the display . The north mark appears at the left side of the display.
2.3 The Cursor
The cursor (+) functions to measure the se­lect location for a mark; erase marks, mea­sure range and bearing, etc.
Data and cursor state
Cursor state determines what data are shown on the display.
Cursor turned on
Cursor position is displayed in latitude and longitude or LOPs (depending on menu set­ting) at the top of the display. The range and bearing from own ship to the cursor appear at the right hand side of the display , when in the Plotter 1 display.
Display orientation can be selected on the Plotter 1, Plotter 2 and Highway displays, with the [NU/CU ENT] key. Two display orienta­tions are available: north-up and course-up.
North-up display
In the north-up display, true north (0°) is at the top of the display . Own ship moves on the display in accordance with true speed and true motion. Land is stationary.
Course-up display
Destination set
The destination is at the top of the display and the north mark ( ) appears at the left side of the display.

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.
When plotting is resumed
"Resuming track plot" appears at the center of the display for about three seconds.

2.8 Track Plotting Interval

The plotting interval determines both how the track will be reconstructed on the display and track storage time. A shorter interval provides more accurate reconstruction of track line, however total storage time is reduced. The plotting interval can be selected by time or distance. Plotting by distance offers the ad­vantage that the track is not stored when the vessel is anchored.
Plotting interval by time
The setting range for plotting by time is 00 to 60 minutes.
5) Enter plotting interval in four digits. To enter 30 seconds, for example, press [0] [0] [3] [0].
