Features

The GP-1850D is a totally integrated DGPS beacon receiver, GPS receiver, and color video plotter. The GP-1850 mostly shares the same features with the GP-1850D except it does not have a built-in DGPS beacon receiver.

Navigation information is displayed on a bright 6.5-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 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-1850/1850D C-MAP NT.

The main features of the GP-1850D/GP-1850 are

• Comprehensive navigation data displays.

• Bright 6.5-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-1850).

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

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

1.3 Inserting Mini Chart Card

Insert appropriate mini chart card before turning on the power.

1. Push down the lid catch to open the mini chart card slot cover.

Card slot

Figure 1-3 Location of mini chart

card slot cover

2. Insert appropriate mini chart card groove side up.

Your equipment 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 equipment displays various abbreviations at the bottom left-hand corner of the display which show DGPS/GPS receiver status. Table 1-1 shows these abbreviations and their meanings.

3. Close the slot cover to protect the chart drive. (Keep the slot cover closed at all times.)

Note: T urn off power before inserting or ejecting the mini chart card.

1.4 Turning the Power On/Off

Press the [POWER/BRILL] key at bottom lefthand side of the display unit to turn on the power. When the unit is turned on, it proceeds in the sequence shown in Figure 1-4, after displaying the FURUNO information display .

5.1 Entering Waypoints

In navigation terminology , a waypoint is a particular location on a voyage whether it be a starting, intermediate or destination point. A waypoint is the simplest piece of information your equipment requires to get you to a destination, in the shortest distance possible.

This unit has 835 waypoints (including quick waypoints) into which you can enter position information. There are five methods by which you can enter a waypoint: at own ship’s position, at MOB position, by cursor, by range and bearing, and through the waypoint list (manual input of latitude and longitude).

Entering waypoints at own ship’s position

You can save your current position as a waypoint. Press the [SAVE/MOB] key with a touch-and-release action to store your position. This new waypoint will automatically be saved in the waypoint list under the next consecutive waypoint number.

2. Press the [ENTER] key to select MOB

position as destination, or the [CLEAR] key to only mark MOB position.

3. To show range and bearing to the MOB

position, press the soft key NAV L/L followed by the soft key NAV WPT.

6. ROUTES

Often a trip from one place to another involves several course changes, requiring a series of route points (waypoints) which you navigate to, one after another. The sequence of waypoints leading to the ultimate destination is called a route. Your unit can automatically advance to the next waypoint on a route, so you do not have to change the destination waypoint repeatedly.

You can store up to 200 routes. A route may consist of 35 points.

POS SMOOTHING

DISABLE SATELLITE

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 000 to 999 is available. The higher setting the more smoothed the raw data, however too high a setting shows response time to change in latitude and longitude. This is especially noticeable at high ship’s speeds. 000 is the normal setting; increase the setting if the GPS fix changes greatly.

SPD/CSE SMOOTHING

During position fixing, ship’s velocity (speed and course) is directly measured by receiving GPS satellite signals. The raw velocity data may change randomly depending on receiving conditions and other factors. Y ou 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 all zeroes. The default setting is 5 (sec).

Every GPS satellite is broadcasting abnormal satellite number(s) in it’s Almanac, which contains general orbital data about all GPS satellites, including those which are malfunctioning. 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. If you hear about a malfunctioning satellite from another source, you can disable it manually . Enter satellite number (max. 3 satellites) in two digits and press the soft key ENTER or the [ENTER] key.

LATITUDE, LONGITUDE

The default latitude and longitude position is San Francisco, USA (38.00.00’N,

123.00.000’W). When the unit is turned on

first the first time it begins searching for its actual position. To lessen the time required to find position, you may enter your position manually . To switch from North to South and vice versa, use the soft key N<-->S, and to switch from West to East and vice versa, use the soft key W<-->E. Finally, press the soft key ENTER or the [ENTER] key.

GPS SPEED AVE

Calculation of ET A is based on average ship’ s speed over a given period. If the period is too long or too short calculation error will result. Change this setting if calculation error occurs. The default setting is 60 seconds, which is suitable for most conditions.

LAT OFFSET, LON OFFSET

GPS generated position may be off by some seconds due to GPS signal variation. You may apply an offset to GPS position to refine position accuracy.

ANT. HEIGHT

Enter the height of the antenna unit above sea surface. For further details refer to the installation manual. The default setting is 5 m.

FIX MODE

Y ou can choose the position-fixing mode from 2D or 2D/3D. 2D requires three satellites to fix position; 2D/3D requires three or four satellites, whichever is available. The default setting is 2D/3D.

12.2 Replacement of Fuse,

Battery

The fuse on the power cable protects the system from reverse polarity of the ship’s mains and equipment fault. If the fuse blows, find the cause before replacing it. Use only a 3A fuse. Using the wrong fuse will damage the unit and void the warranty.

CAUTION

Use the correct fuse.

A battery installed on a circuit board inside display unit preserves data when the power is turned off. The life of the battery is about three years. When the battery voltage is low the battery icon (

) appears on the display. When this happens, contact your dealer to request replacement of the battery.
