Hazardous voltage which can cause electrical shock, burn or serious injury exists inside the equipment. Only qualified

personnel should work inside the equipment.

Do not disassemble or modify the equipment.

Fire, electrical shock or serious injury can result.

Immediately turn off the power at the switchboard if the equipment is emitting smoke or fire.

Continued use of the equipment can cause fire or electrical shock. Contact a FURUNO agent for service.

Do not operate the equipment with wet hands.

Electrical shock can result.

Use the proper fuse.

Fuse rating is shown on the power cable. Use of a wrong fuse can result in damage to the equipment.

About the TFT LCD

The TFT LCD is constructed using the latest LCD techniques, and displays 99.99% of its pixels. The remaining 0.01% of the pixels may drop out or blink, however this is not an indication of malfunction.

CAUTION

Do not use the equipment for other than its intended purpose.

No one navigation device should ever be solely replied upon for the navigation of a vessel.

Always confirm position against all available aids to navigation, for safety of vessel and crew.

Use the proper gain setting.

Incorrect gain may produce wrong depth indication, possibly result ing in a dangerous situation. See "Adjusting the gain" on page 2-6.

The picture is not refreshed when picture advancement is stopped.

Maneuvering the vessel in this condition may result in a dangerous situation.

A warning label is attached to the equipment. Do not remove the label. If the label is missing or illegible, contact

FOREWORD

A Word to GP-1650WD/1650W Owners

Congratulations on your choice of the FURUNO GP-1650WD COLOR DGPS/PLOTTER, GP-1650W COLOR GPS/PLOTTER. 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 installed, 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.

Features

The GP-1650WD provides a totally integrated DGPS beacon receiver, WAAS function, GPS receiver and color video plotter. The GP-1650W mostly shares the same features with the GP-1650WD except it does not have a DGPS beacon receiver.

Navigation information is displayed on a bright 5.6-inch color TFT LCD. On-screen information shown are position, range and bearing to cursor position, range, bearing, ETA and TTG to waypoint, etc.

A high sensitivity receiver tracks up to twelve (WAAS: thirteen) satellites simultaneously. An 8-state Kalman filter ensures optimum accuracy in determination of vessel position, course and speed.

C-MAP NT-FP chart card is available for the GP-1650WD/1650W.

The main features of the

GP-1650WD/1650W are

WAAS capability.

Comprehensive navigation data displays.

Bright 5.6-inch color TFT LCD with temperature compensated tone and brilliance control.

Automatic coastline chart loading.

Position display in latitude and longitude, Loran C or Decca TDs.

Improved position accuracy with optional DGPS beacon receiver (GP-1650W).

Accepts both FURUNO and NAVIONICS chart card or FURUNO and C-MAP NT mini chart cards.

Alarms: Arrival, Anchor Watch, Cross-track Error, Speed and Proximity.

Man overboard feature records latitude and longitude coordinates at time of man overboard.

“Highway” display provides graphic presentation of ship’s track and is useful for monitoring cross track error.

Furuno GP-1650WD, GP-1650W User Manual

WHAT IS WAAS?

WAAS, available in North America, is a provider in the worldwide SBAS (Satellite Based Augmentation System) navigation system. An SBAS provider furnishes GPS signal corrections to SBAS users. Two more SBAS providers are also currently under development, MSAS (Multi-Functional Satellite Augmentation System) for Japan and EGNOS (Euro Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service) for Europe. All providers will be compatible with one another, thus providing “seamless” position fixes to SBAS users.

At the time of this software release, SBAS is still under development. (Providers are expected to have initial operations capability from the times shown above.) During this developmental period, which may last for several years, there is no guarantee of the accuracy, integrity, continuity, or availability of the SBAS signal. Furuno will accept no responsibility for the use of the signal for other than the above stated purpose. It is the user’s responsibility to exercise common prudence and navigational judgment while using the SBAS signal in the developmental phase.

Note: This manual uses “WAAS” when referring to any SBAS provider.

The last-used display appears.

Start-up sequence

For any NG on the start up test display, request service.

The GP-1650WD/1650W takes about 90 seconds to find its position when turned on for the very first time. This is because the equipment has no satellite data, called the Almanac, in its database. If you want to lessen the time needed to find position you may enter your position manually (default position: San Francisco, USA) on the GPS SETUP OPTIONS menu.

Thereafter it takes about 12 seconds to find position each time the power is turned on.

When the satellite signal is being received normally, the GP-1650WD/1650W displays various abbreviations at the bottom left-hand corner of the display which show DGPS/GPS receiver status. The table in below shows these abbreviations and their meanings.

1.Press the [MENU] key followed by the CHART SETUP OPTIONS and TRACK CONTROL soft key.

2.Press the STOP TRACK soft key. The indication “TRACKING” in the TRACK STATUS window changes to “NOT TRACKING”.

On the plotter display, H icon appears.

To restart recording the track, press the START TRACK soft key at step 2 in the above procedure.

When the fishing mode is selected, you can stop or restart plotting the track with the soft key only on the plotter display. Press the [HIDE/SHOW] key several times to show the STOP TRACK soft key on the plotter display. Press the STOP TRACK soft key to stop plotting of track. The message of HOLD TRACK PLOTTING appears approx. 2 seconds and then own ship mark changes to hollow circle. To restart plotting the track, press the START TRACK soft key again. The message START TRACK PLOTTING appears approx. 2 seconds and then plotting restarts.

3.3Changing Track Color

Track can be displayed in red, yellow, green, light-blue, purple, blue or white. It can be useful to change track color to discriminate between previous day's track, past track, etc.

3.4Track Plotting Method, Interval

In drawing the track, first the ship’s position (fed from the DGPS/GPS receiver, WAAS) is stored into the unit’s memory at an interval of time or distance. A shorter interval provides better reconstruction of the track, but the storage time of the track is reduced. When the track memory becomes full, the oldest track is erased to make room for the latest.
