SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

Do not work inside the equipment unless totally familiar with electrical circuits.

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

Turn off the power at the mains switchboard before beginning the installation. Post a sign near the switch to indicate it should not be turned on while the equipment is being installed.

Fire, electrical shock or serious injury can result if the power is left on or is applied while the equipment is being installed.

CAUTION

Ground the equipment to prevent electrical shock and mutual interference.

Confirm that the power supply voltage is compatible with the voltage rating of the equipment.

Connection to the wrong power supply can cause fire or equipment damage. The voltage rating appears on the label at the rear of the display unit.

Use the correct fuse.

Use of a wrong fuse can cause fire or equipment damage.

Keep the following compass safe distances:

2. DISPLAY UNIT

The dis play unit can be installed with either of four methods as shown below. Refer to the outline dr awing page D-2, D-3, and D-4.

• Locate the unit aw ay from exhaust pip es and vents.

• The mounting location should be well ventilated.

• Mount the unit where shock and vibration are minimal.

• Keep the display u ni t away el ectromagneti c fi el d g en er ati n g eq ui pm e nt such as motor,

generator.

• Allow sufficient maintenance space and a sufficient slack in cables for maintenance and repair.

• If vibration is a problem, tilt the display unit so it contacts the vibration absorbers attached to the inside of the hanger (t ilted within 5 °).

3. ANTENNA UNIT

Mounting

Install the antenna unit referring to the ins tallation diagram on page D-4. When selec ting a mounting l oc ation for the antenna unit, keep in mind the following points.

• Selec t a location out of the radar beam. The radar beam will obstruct or prevent re ception of the GPS satellite sign al.

• Be sure the location offer s a clean line-of-sight to satellite. Objects within line-of-sight to a satellite, for example, a mast or funnel, blo c k recep tion and cause prolonged acquiring time or in terruption of positi on fix.

• Mount the unit as high as possible. Mounting the antenna as high as possible keeps it free of water spray , wh ich c an int ercept reception of GPS satellite signal, if water spray is frozen.

• The antenna unit GPA-018S must be grounded. Connect gr ou nd wi re of 1.25 sq or larger (local supply) between unit and a stainless steel screw fastened to the mast.

Extending Antenna Cable Length

The standar d c able is 15m long. 30m and 50m long extension cable sets are optionally available. See page 4.

Grounding

The dis play unit contains s everal CPUs. While they are operating, they radiate noise, which can interf er e with other radi o equipment. Groun d the unit as follows to prevent it.

•

The groundi ng wire should be 1.25sq or larger.

•

The groundi ng wire should be as s hor t as possible.

External Equipment

The DATA 1, DATA2, and DATA 3 por ts are used to connect an ex ternal equipment such as autopilot, remote display, navigation equipment. Refer to the interconnecti on diagram on page S-1 for c onnection of DATA1, DATA2 and DATA 3 port. The DATA 4 por t is used to connect NMEA equipment, IBM-PC or DGPS beac on r eceiver as fol lows;

3. At the GP-80, press [MENU ESC], [8] and [1]. Confirm t hat "BEACON OK" is displayed.

Confirm that "BEACON RCVR INSTALLED" is displayed when DGPS function is provided.

DGPS Setup

The default setting is " manual".

Automatic DGPS setup

The GR-800 c an automatical ly select optimum refer ence station by feeding it position data. If it takes mor e than 5 minutes to fix DGPS position at the automatic m ode, switch to manual mode. Use at manual mode when a external beacon receiver has no automatic function of station sel ection.

5. INITIAL SETTINGS

83 21

Beacon signal status Reference station status

DGPS signal strength This value is between 1

and 84. The higher the value, the stronger the signal. If a noise appears at reception band width, the value becomes bigger.

Input/Output Setting

Error rate of connection data This value is between 1 to 22. The higher

the value, the better the reception of beacon signal. When this value is less than 20, the error is included in the correction data. In this time, position fixing is done by using past position data. When the ship is in the service area of a beacon station, this value should be 21 or

22. If not, check as follows.

• Check the grounding.

• Check the radar beam interference.

• Check the noise of power generator of

the ship.

The GP- 80 c an output navigation information to ex ternal equipment . For example, i t can output position data to a radar or ec ho sounder for di s play on their display screen. You can convert a Lor an P lotter to a GPS P lotter with posi tion data from the GP-80.

Before selec ting data to outp ut, confirm w hat data the external equipment requires. O utput necessary data only. Out putting unnecessary data can cause receiving problems at the external equipment.

Talker

All data tr ans m itted by marine electronics equipment is prefixed with a two character code which t ells external equipm ent what equipment is transmitting data. This two character code is called the talker. The GP-80 contains the t alkers GP, LC and DE.

Because GP S is a relatively new s ystem some early m odel equipment do not recognize the GP talk er nam e. In this case transmit data using a con ventional talker, one the equipment recogniz es , such as Loran C.
