Congratulations on your choice of the GP-37 DGPS Navigator, GP-32 GPS Navigator.

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.

Your navigator 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 installation, 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-37/GP-32 is a totally integrated GPS receiver and video plotter, and mainly consists of a display unit and an antenna unit. The GP-37 is additionally equipped with a DGPS beacon receiver, built in the display unit.

The high sensitivity GPS receiver tracks up to 13 satellites (12 GPS, 1 WAAS) simultaneously. An 8-state Kalman filter ensures optimum accuracy in determination of vessel position, course and speed.

The main features of the GP-37/GP-32 are

• A DGPS beacon receiver may be

connected to the GP-32 to add DGPS capability.

• WAAS capability.

• Storage for 999 waypoints and 50 routes

• Alarms: Arrival/Anchor Watch, XTE

(Cross-track Error), Trip, Odometer, Time, WAAS/DGPS, and Speed.

• Man overboard feature records position at

time of man overboard and provides continuous updates of range and bearing when navigating to the MOB position.

• Bright 95 x 60 mm LCD with adjustable

contrast and brilliance.

• Autopilot (option) may be connected, and

steering data output to the autopilot.

• Unique Highway display provides a graphic

presentation of ship’s progress toward a waypoint.

• User displays definable by operator.

• Waypoint and route data can be uploaded

from a PC and downloaded to a PC.

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, for even better position accuracy, typically better than three meters. 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, WAAS is still in the developmental phase. During this developmental phase, which may last several years, there is no guarantee of the accuracy, integrity, continuity, or availability of the WAAS signal. Therefore, 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 when using the WAAS signal.

2.5 Changing Track Plotting Interval, Stopping Plotting

To trace the ship’s track, the ship’s position is stored into the memory at an interval of distance or according to display range. For 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.

4. ROUTES

In many cases a trip from one place to another involves several course changes, requiring a series of 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.

4.1 Creating Routes

You can store up to 50 routes (numbered 01 to 50) and one LOG route, which is used to temporarily store a route. A route may be constructed four ways: by the cursor, by waypoints entered from the waypoint list, by waypoints entered from route menu, and by storing current position automatically or manually.

A route may contain 30 waypoints. When 30 waypoints have been saved, a message informs you that you can no longer save waypoints to the route. Press the [ENT] key to erase the message and save the route, under the name of the first and last waypoint numbers used in the route.

Note: Be sure to record all important routes in a separate log. This unit is not a fail-safe record keeping device.

GPS SETUP menu description

SMOOTH POS (Smoothing position)

When the DOP (Dilution of Precision, the index for position-fixing accuracy) 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. The setting range is from 0 (no smoothing) to 999 seconds. 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.

SMOOTH S/C (Smoothing speed/course)

During position fixing, ship’s velocity (speed and course) is directly measured by receiving GPS satellite signals. The raw velocity data may changes 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. The setting range is from 0 (no smoothing) to 9999 seconds.

AVR. SPEED (Speed averaging)

Calculation of ETA and TTG, etc. 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. The setting range is from 0 (no averaging) to 9999 seconds.

LAT/LON OFFSET (L/L posi tion offset)

You may apply an offset to latitude and longitude position generated by the GPS receiver, to increase position accuracy.

DISABLE SV

Every GPS satellite is broadcasting abnormal satellite number(s) in its Almanac, which contains general orbital data about all GPS satellites. 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. Enter satellite number in two digits and then press the [ENT] key. To restore a satellite enter “00”.

7. OTHER FUNCTIONS

DISABLE GEO

Like GPS satellites, the GPS receiver automatically eliminates any malfunctioning WAAS satellite. To disable a WAAS satellite manually, enter three-digit satellite number with the cursor pad and then press the [ENT] key. To restore a satellite, enter “000”.

FIX MODE

Chooses position fixing method; 2D or 2/3D. 2D requires three satellites in view of the GPS receiver; 2/3D requires three or four satellites in view of the GPS receiver, whichever is available. When the 2D mode is selected, enter the antenna height above the waterline, to obtain accurate position data. The default setting is 5 m.

9. INSTALLATION

9.1 Installation of Display Unit

Mounting considerations

The display unit can be installed on a desktop, on the overhead, or in a panel (optional flush mounting kit required). Refer to the outline drawings at the end of this manual for installation instructions. When choosing a mounting location, keep in mind the following points:

•

Locate the unit away from exhaust pipes and vents.

•

The mounting location should be well ventilated.

•

Mount the unit where shock and vibration are minimal.

•

Locate the unit away from equipment which generates electromagnetic fields such as a motor or generator.

•

Allow sufficient maintenance space at the sides and rear of the unit and leave sufficient slack in cables, to facilitate maintenance and servicing.

•

Observe compass safe noted on page ii to prevent interference to a magnetic compass.

Flush mounting

There are two types of flush mounting kits. For details, see the outline drawings at the end of this manual.

9.2 Installation of Antenna

Unit

Mounting considerations

Install the antenna unit referring to the antenna installation diagram at the end of this manual. When choosing a mounting location for the antenna unit, keep in mind the following points:

•

Choose a location out of the radar beam. The radar beam will obstruct or prevent reception of the GPS signal.

•

The location should be well away from a VHF/UHF antenna. A GPS receiver is interfered by a harmonic wave of a VHF/UHF antenna.

•

There should be no interfering object within the line-of-sight to the satellites. Objects within line-of-sight to a satellite, for example, a mast, may block reception or prolong acquisition time.

•

Mount the antenna unit as high as possible to keep it free of interfering objects and water spray, which can interrupt reception of GPS satellite signal if the water freezes.

•

See the outline drawing for the antenna unit at the back of this manual for minimum separation distances from other antennas.

•

If the antenna cable is to be passed through a hole which is not large enough to pass the connector, you may unfasten the connector with a needle nose pliers and 3/8-inch open-end wrench. Refasten it as shown below, after running the cable through the hole.

Spring Washer

Nut

How to assemble the connector

Gasket (reddish-brown)

Shield

Connector

•

Do not shorten the antenna cable.

•

The antenna unit can be installed three ways: screwed into a pipe (local supply), fixed to a post with the optional mast mounting kit, or screwed into an optional mounting base. For fixing by post or pipe, it is recommended to use stays to secure the post or pipe to prevent damage to the GPS receiver by vibration.

DISPLAY UNIT GP-32 OR GP-37

Ground

Grounding

The display unit contains a CPU. While it is operating, it radiates noise, which can interfere with radio equipment. Ground the unit as follows to prevent interference:

•

The ground wire for the display unit should be 1.25sq or larger and as short as possible.

•

The signal ground and frame ground are separated, however the power line is not isolated. Therefore, do not connect the signal ground to the frame ground when connecting other equipment to a positive ground battery.

External equipment

The power supply port is commonly used for connection of external equipment such as a radar. Refer to the interconnection diagram on page S-1 or S-2 for connection of external equipment.

POWER

(12-24 VDC)

* = Cut unused cores and tape individually.

Wiring

Note: The fuse holder contains a spring that fixes the fuse. To prevent detachment of the spring, which would cause loss of power, tie the line as shown below.
