1100 Series™ Introduction
Your 1100 Series™ Chartplotter comes in the following configuration:
Humminbird® 1155c Chartplotter: Networkable GPS Chartplotting System, GPS Receiver included.

How GPS and Cartography Work

Your 1100 Series™ Chartplotter supports GPS and chartplotting, and uses GPS to determine your position and display it on a grid. The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite navigation system designed and maintained by the U.S. Department of Defense. GPS was originally intended for military use; however, civilians may also take advantage of its highly accurate position capabilities, typically within +/- 10 meters, depending on conditions. This means that 95% of the time, the GPS receiver will read a location within 10 meters of your actual position. Your GPS Receiver also uses information from WAAS (the Wide Area Augmentation System), EGNOS (the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service), and MSAS (the MTSAT Satellite Augmentation System) satellites if they are available in your area.
GPS uses a constellation of 24 satellites that continually send radio signals to the earth. Your present position is determined by receiving signals from up to 16 satellites and measuring the distance from the satellites.
All satellites broadcast a uniquely coded signal once per second at exactly the same time. The GPS receiver on your boat receives signals from satellites that are visible to it. Based on time differences between each received signal, the GPS receiver determines its distance to each satellite. With distances known, the GPS receiver mathematically triangulates its own position. With once per second updates, the GPS receiver then calculates its velocity and bearing.
1
Page 10
The GPS Receiver included with your 1100 Series™ Chartplotter allows you to combine easy-to-use chartplotter and navigation capabilities. The following GPS functionality is currently supported by the 1100 Series™ Chartplotter when it is connected to the included GPS receiver:
• View current position
• View current track (breadcrumb trail)
• View precision speed and heading from your GPS receiver
• Save tracks, waypoints and routes
• Travel a route and navigate from one waypoint to the next.
Your 1100 Series™ supports Navionics® Gold, HotMaps™, HotMaps™ Premium, and Platinum™ Cartography on MMC or SD card media.
NOTE: Your 1100 Series™ does not support Navionics® Classic Charts, only Navionics® Gold, HotMaps™, HotMaps™ Premium, and Platinum™ Cartography.
NOTE: Some models come pre-loaded with Navionics® cartography and are referred to as NVB models. NVB models are only available domestically. Currently, there are not any international NVB models.
In non-NVB models, your unit also comes with a built-in UniMap™ with a detailed map of North America (Domestic models) or a detailed map of Europe and Southeast Asia, including Australia and New Zealand (International models). In non-NVB models, the built-in UniMap™ does not contain Port, Tide or Current information, and this information is only available from optional purchase MMC/SD cards.
Your 1100 Series™ uses the GPS Receiver to determine the position of the boat automatically, and uses the zoom level settings on a particular view to select the best chart to display. See Viewing Cartography for more information.

MMC/SD Slot

Your 1100 Series™ Chartplotter also has an MMC/SD slot that is used to insert optional-purchase cards containing additional detailed maps. If you insert an MMC/SD that contains a more detailed chart for a particular location, your 1100 Series™ Chartplotter will retrieve that chart and display it automatically. Use the illustration to locate the position of the MMC/SD slot cover, open the MMC/SD slot cover, then insert the MMC/SD into the slot. The label on the MMC/SD should face toward the left side of the unit. Press down on the card until it clicks into place and close the slot cover.
Inserting an MMC/SD into the Card Slot

Page 11
Software Updates
Use the MMC/SD slot to update the software version of your control head. To update the software in your control head, plug in the appropriate MMC/SD card that contains a software update file; the unit will recognize it, will tell you what software version your control head is currently running, and will ask you if you want to update the software in the unit to match that on the MMC/SD card. You can obtain software updates from the www.humminbird.com website.

Accessory Bus

Use the Accessory Bus to expand the functionality of your 1100 Series™. Accessories plug directly into the 1100 Series™, enabling Advanced features such as WeatherSense and the ®CannonLink™ Downrigger Controller. Additional tabs and menu choices will be added to the menu system automatically when an accessory is plugged into the unit. In addition, multiple accessories can be attached simultaneously. See Accessories Menu Tab and 1100 Series™ Accessories in this manual, as well as your accessory Operations Manual for additional details.
NOTE: Accessories such as the CannonLink™ Downrigger Controller, InterLink™, and the WeatherSense® require separate purchases. You can visit our website at www.humminbird.com or contact our Customer Resource Center at 1-800-633-1468 for additional details.
Video and GPS Output Connectors
Your unit comes with a Video Out connector and a GPS Out connector, which can be used with optional­purchase accessories. For instance, if you purchase a video monitor and attach it to your control head using the Video Out connector, your unit will automatically send a video signal if it detects a monitor. See Setup Main Menu: Video Out for more information.

Inside the boat there is often a channel or conduit used for other wiring, this can be used to route cables.
Be sure to route the cables as far as practical from the antenna cable of VHF radios or tachometer cables
to reduce the possibility of interference. The GPS receiver cable should not be cut, and care should be used
not to damage the cable insulation.
Basic installation tasks that you must perform include:
Installing the control head (choosing either gimbal or in-dash mounting)
Installing the GPS Receiver
Testing the complete installation.
NOTE: Accessories may require a separate purchase. You can visit our website at www.humminbird.com to order these accessories online or contact our Customer Resource Center at 1-800-633-1468.

Control Head Installation
You have two choices for mounting your 1100 Series™ control head, Gimbal mounting, where you use a surface on the boat, such as the dash, to mount the control head so that it can be tilted up or down, or In- dash mounting.

Gimbal Mounting the Control Head

If you are gimbal mounting the Humminbird® 1100 Series™, you can pre-assemble the unit in order to plan the best mounting location.
In addition to the hardware supplied with your control head, you will need a powered hand drill and various drill bits, various hand tools, including a Phillips head screwdriver, a socket wrench and a flat head screwdriver, a marker or pencil, safety glasses and dust mask, and marine-grade silicone sealant.
1. Place the control head into the gimbal bracket. Make sure that the straight side of the gimbal arm is against the back side of the control head.
2. Place a 1" (25 mm) diameter black washer on the gimbal knob and then thread the knob and washer into the housing. Tighten the gimbal knob to secure the 1100 Series™ control head to the mount. Repeat step 2 for the other side.
You can now place the control head in various locations to decide which is best for mounting. Rotating the mounting bracket to the top of the control head will allow for overhead mounting. The chosen mounting area should allow for sufficient room so the control head can pivot through the full tilt range and allow for easy removal and installation.
NOTE: You can drill the cable pass hole underneath the gimbal bracket, allowing you to thread the cables through the large center hole in the mount; however, if you cannot drill the hole directly under the mounting bracket, then you will need to drill the cable pass hole behind the bracket, and will need to mount the hole cover there instead.

NOTE: When drilling holes in fiberglass hulls, it is best to start with a smaller bit and use progressively larger drill bits to reduce the chance of chipping or flaking the outer coating. Fill all holes with marine grade silicone sealant.
NOTE: You must have underside access to the mounting location to pass the cables through to the surface. Also, make sure that the mounting surface is adequately supported to protect the control head from excessive wave shock and vibration and provide visibility while in operation.
NOTE: Go to the installation instructions applicable to your GPS Receiver and accessories. Make the required installations and then run the cables to your control head mounting location. Do not cut any cabling (except the power cable). If your cables are too short, extensions are available from your local dealer or online from www.humminbird.com.
3. After the mounting location has been determined, loosen the gimbal knobs and remove the control head from the gimbal bracket.
NOTE: Alternate hole patterns are available on the gimbal mounting bracket, and may match existing holes on the boat. You may choose to use one of these alternate hole patterns.
4. Place the gimbal bracket in the chosen position on the mounting surface and mark the four mounting screw locations using a pencil or center punch.
5. Set the gimbal bracket aside and drill the four mounting screw holes using a 5/32" (4.0 mm) drill bit.

6a. If the cables must pass through a hole directly beneath the mounting bracket, mark and drill an
additional 1" (25 mm) hole centered between the four mounting holes. Route the cables through the 1" hole. Place the gimbal over the mounting surface hole, then use it to mark the position of the two mounting screws, closest to the center large hole. Remove the gimbal and drill the two mounting holes using a 9/64" (3.5 mm) bit. Do not install the hole cover at this time.
or...
6b. If the cables cannot be routed directly beneath the mounting bracket, mark and drill a 1" (25 mm)
hole that will allow you to run the cables close to the bracket. Pass the cables through the 1" (25 mm) hole, routing the cables through the grommet and pressing the grommet into place. Place the hole cover over the mounting surface hole, then use it to mark the position of the two mounting screws. Remove the hole cover, drill the two mounting holes using a 9/64" (3.5 mm) bit, fill them with marine-grade silicone sealant, then replace the hole cover and insert the #8 Phillips countersink wood screws. Hand-tighten only.
7. Place the mounting bracket on the mounting surface aligned with the drilled holes and fill the mounting holes with marine grade silicone sealant. Insert the four #10 Slotted-Hex wood screws into the mounting holes. Hand-tighten only.
8. If the cable pass through hole is beneath the mounting bracket, you will need to install the hole cover after you have routed all cables. Place the hole cover over the mounting bracket cable pass thru hole and align with holes drilled in step 6a. Insert the #8 Phillips countersink wood screws.
Hand tighten only.
NOTE: Be sure that the cables pass through the slots on the hole cover and that there is enough cable slack to allow for the control head to pivot through its full tilt range. Extra cable slack will also help when connecting/disconnecting the cables.

In-Dash Mounting the Control Head

If you are in-dash mounting the control head, start by placing the components on the surfaces where you intend to install them before installation. Make sure that the surfaces you have chosen provide adequate protection from wave shock, and that all cables can reach the control head.
NOTE: If a cable is too short for your application, extension cables are available. Call Humminbird® Customer Support at 1-800-633-1468 for more information.
Parts and tools specific to In-dash mounting are:
• Threaded rods and hardware
• In-dash mounting foam pads
• In-dash mounting template
• Reciprocating saw for cutting dash material
• Masking tape to hold mounting template in place.
1. Locate a suitable, flat area of the dash to mount the control head. The control head requires a depth of at least 4 inches (102 mm).
2. Tape the paper In-Dash Mounting template to the desired in-dash mounting location.
3. At a location inside the dotted line on the template, drill a hole large enough to insert blade of reciprocating saw. In addition, drill the 4 mounting hole locations using a 3/16" drill bit. Carefully begin cutting toward the dotted line, then follow the dotted line around the template. Remove the template when finished.
4. Insert and tighten the four threaded rods into the four threaded inserts located on the back side of the control head. Peel off the adhesive-backed foam pads and place them on the back of the control head; make sure you notice the difference between the longer top/bottom and shorter side pads.

Connecting the Control Head Power Cable to the Boat

A 6' (2 m) long power cable is included to supply power to the control head. You may shorten or lengthen the cable using 18 gauge multi-stranded copper wire.
CAUTION: Some boats have 24 or 36 Volt electric systems, but the control head MUST be connected to a 12 VDC power supply.
The control head power cable can be connected to the electrical system of the boat at one of two places: a fuse panel usually located near the console, or directly to the battery.
NOTE: Make sure that the power cable is disconnected from the control head at the beginning of this procedure.
NOTE: Humminbird® is not responsible for over-voltage or over-current failures. The control head must have
adequate protection through the proper selection and installation of a 3 Amp fuse.
NOTE: In order to minimize the potential for interference with other marine electronics, a separate power source (such as a second battery) may be necessary.
1a. If a fuse terminal is available, use crimp-on type electrical connectors (not included)
that match the terminal on the fuse panel. Attach the black wire to ground (-), and the red wire to positive (+) 12 VDC power. Install a 3 Amp fuse (not included) for protection of the unit. Humminbird® is not responsible for over-voltage of over­current failures.
or...
1b. If you need to wire the control head directly to a battery, obtain and install an inline
fuse holder and a 3 Amp fuse (not included) for the protection of the unit. Humminbird® is not responsible for overvoltage or over-current failures.
NOTE: Your unit will detect when your battery voltage is too low or too high, and will display either Input Voltage Low or Input Voltage High messages if these limits are exceeded. If you turn the Low Battery Alarm on using the Alarms Main Menu, your unit will use your settings. If you do not turn the Low Battery Alarm on, the unit will use these limits: 7.5 to 7.9 VDC for the low end, and 21 to 21.2 VDC for the high end.

GPS Receiver Installation

To optimize performance of the GPS receiver, mount it in an area that has full exposure to the sky. The effective area of reception is 10° above the horizon. Different circumstances determine the mounting method appropriate for your GPS receiver.
If you have… Then use:
The pinouts of the NMEA cable are as follows:
• Red Wire, +12V (output voltage only)
• Black Wire, Ground
• White Wire, NMEA Out.
CAUTION! Please use caution before connecting the red +12V wire to any other NMEA device. This is an output voltage provided by the control head and GPS receiver and should only be connected to those NMEA devices that need a 12 volt input.

Stem Mounting with an Existing 1" - 14 Thread Stem

Follow these steps to stem mount the GPS receiver:
NOTE: If you have an existing stem for mounting the GPS receiver, proceed directly to step 2 of the following procedure.
1. Determine the best location to mount your GPS receiver. Preplan and test the cable routing to your control head before any drilling or cutting of your boat surfaces. If you have purchased hardware to stem mount your GPS receiver, follow the instructions included with that hardware to mount the stem (antenna pole).
NOTE: AS-EC10 10' extension cables are available from Humminbird® if your planned routing exceeds 20', (6 m). Maximum cable length, including extensions, should not exceed 50' (16 m).
NOTE: Remember to seal screw holes and drilled holes as needed with marine-grade silicone sealant to protect your boat from water damage.

2. Screw on the receiver base to the stem first, making sure that the stem pipe does not protrude from the receiver base. This adds protection to the cable when pulling it through the pipe stem. In addition to this, de-burr the pipe edges to reduce cable abrasion.
3. Use electrical tape to secure the NMEA cable to the receiver cable as shown.
NOTE: Leave the NMEA cable secured to the receiver cable unless needed. This will make removing the receiver easier.
4. Route the GPS receiver cable through the stem and continue with the planned route you chose in step 1.
5. Attach the GPS receiver to its base using the included #6 - 7/8" screws.

Access Under Mounting Location

Follow these steps to deck mount the GPS receiver when routing the cable down through the mounting location:
1. Determine the best location, then test route the 20' (6 m) cable from the mounting location to the control head.
NOTE: Installation details may vary with unit configuration.
2. Mark the mounting location and drill a 3/4" (19 mm) hole for the cable and cable plug. Route the cable.
3. Cover the cable hole with the receiver. Make sure the receiver is flush on the surface and mark the two mounting holes with a pencil or punch.
4. Move the receiver to the side and drill two pilot holes using a 9/64" (3.5 mm) bit.
NOTE: Remember to seal screw holes and drilled holes as needed with marine-grade silicone sealant to protect your boat from water damage.
5. Align the GPS receiver screw holes over the pilot screw holes and attach with the #8 - 1 1/4" Phillips head screws. Hand tighten only!
NOTE: If the mounting surface is thin and made of a lighter material, a backing material may be needed below the mounting surface.

No Access Under Mounting Location

Follow these steps to deck mount the GPS receiver in a situation where you must route the cable to the side because there is no space for a cable underneath the mounting location.
1. Determine the best location, then test route the cable from the mounting location to the control head.
NOTE: AS-EC10 10' extension cables are available from Humminbird® if your planned routing exceeds 20', (6 m). Maximum cable length, including extensions, should not exceed 50' (16 m).
2. Confirm the cable length is good and route the cable from the receiver to the control head. If holes are required to route the cable, they must be 3/4" (19 mm) to allow for the cable connector. Secure the NMEA cable with electrical tape.

Page 26
NOTE: Remember to seal screw holes and drilled holes as needed with marine-grade silicone sealant to protect your boat from water damage.
3. The GPS receiver has two wire routing notches. Use the cable notch closest to the intended cable route.
4. With the cable routed, position the GPS receiver in the planned mounting location and mark the mounting holes with a pencil or punch.
5. Move the GPS receiver to the side and drill the two 9/64" (3.5 mm) pilot holes.
6. Align the GPS receiver's screw holes over the pilot screw holes and attach with the #8 - 1 1/4" Phillips head screws. Hand tighten only!

Finish Routing the Cable and Check GPS Receiver Operation

After installing a GPS receiver, you should perform the following procedure to finish routing the GPS cable to the control head and to check to make sure that the control head is working correctly.
1. Secure the cable along its path to the control head as needed with cable ties.
2. Plug the GPS receiver cable into the Communications port on the control head. See Testing the System Installation to use the System Status start-up option and/or the GPS Diagnostic View to confirm a good installation.

Chart View
Chart Views - The standard Chart, Chart No Readouts, and Chart/Chart Combo Views, as well as the Chart side of the Chart/Bird's Eye Combo View and the Chart/Bird's Eye Combo Instrument View, all show cartography from the built-in UniMap™ or an optional MMC/SD map for the area surrounding your current position. The current track (also known as the position history or breadcrumb trail) showing where the boat has been, along with saved tracks, waypoints, and the current route (when navigating), are overlaid on the chart. You can use the 4-WAY Cursor Control key to shift/pan the chart to another area. You can use the ZOOM (+/-) keys to zoom in and out. You can use the INFO key to get information on the chart objects near the cursor as well as to view Screen Snapshots.
NOTE: Only the standard configuration readouts are shown in the graphics. Readouts can be customized to suit your needs.

NOTE: All views except the Bird's Eye/Chart Instrument View share the same set of 5 selectable readouts that can all be set one way for navigation mode and another way for non-navigation mode. When you change the readout displays on one of these views, you also are changing them on all the other views that share the same configuration. See Navigation X-Press™ menu: Select Readouts and Select Nav Readouts for more information.
NOTE: Your Chart screen will automatically declutter and simplify as you zoom out. When you zoom out, all waypoint icons that might otherwise overlap each other will declutter the screen by changing into very small blue icons, and individual waypoint names will be hidden. When you're panning, and your cursor snaps to a waypoint that is using the declutter icon, that waypoint will display its full-size icon and name temporarily (until you move the cursor off of it). In addition, when a waypoint name will write on top of another waypoint, the name will be truncated until the cursor snaps to it. Different waypoints will use the declutter feature at different zoom levels.

Screen Snapshot View
Screen Snapshot View displays and allows you to view screen snapshot thumbnails captured to an optional-purchase MMC/SD card installed in your unit. In addition, when you are in the Screen Snapshot View, Delete Image and Delete All Images are added to the X-Press™ menu.
The Screen Snapshot View displays up to three screen snapshot thumbnails on the screen at a time; you may have to scroll using the 4-WAY Cursor keys to see the whole list of thumbnails in this view. The selected thumbnail will be highlighted with arrows.
NOTE: The speed of the screen capture depends on the type of card you use; in general, SD cards capture the screen faster than MMC cards do.
Screen Snapshot: When Screen Snapshot is enabled (from the Accessories menu tab), pressing the MARK key creates a saved screen capture (when you have an optional-purchase MMC/SD card installed). Once you have created a screen capture, a screen capture thumbnail is added to the Screen Snapshot View, and is available to view at a later date. See the full-sized image by highlighting a thumbnail (using the Up or Down 4-Way Cursor keys), then using the Right 4-Way Cursor key to view the full image. A border around the full-size screen snapshot indicates that it is just a screen snapshot, not a “live” view. You can delete the selected image, or all images, by selecting a thumbnail and using Delete Image, or using Delete All Images from the Screen Snapshot X-Press™ menu.
W
orking with screen snapshots is a four-step process:
1. Enabling Screen Snapshot from the Accessories Menu.
2. Making a Screen Snapshot using the MARK key.
3. Viewing a Screen Snapshot using the Screen Snapshot View.
4. Deleting a Screen Snapshot using the Screen Snapshot X-Press™ menu.
46
Page 55
For more information, see Accessories Menu Tab: Using Screen Snapshot and Screen Snapshot X-Press™ Menu.
Waypoint Thumbnails: On the Chart View, you can use the INFO key to view Screen Snapshot as Waypoint thumbnails. Waypoints thumbnails are created while the Snapshot feature is turned on. They are linked to snapshot waypoints. Before these snapshot waypoints are edited for the first time, they are assigned a filename that begins with an S and is followed by several numbers, and are represented by the camera icon.
NOTE: You must have an MMC/SD card installed to store or view waypoint thumbnails. If you press the INFO key while the cursor is on a snapshot waypoint and the MMC/SD card is missing, only the normal chart information will be displayed.
When the cursor is active on the Chart View and snaps to one of these snapshot waypoints, a waypoint thumbnail will be displayed. Pressing the INFO key while the cursor is near one of these snapshot waypoints will make the full snapshot appear on the screen. Pressing the EXIT key will show the cursor on the waypoint, with the waypoint thumbnail displayed.

Chart Orientation
All the chart views allow you to choose the orientation of the chart. When North-Up orientation is selected, True North is shown at the top of the display. In other words, objects located to the north of the boat are drawn above the boat. When Course-Up orientation is selected, the direction of motion of the boat is shown at the top of the display. In other words, objects ahead of the boat are drawn above the boat. In both orientations, the view pans automatically, so that the boat is always centered on the display. When the boat is stationary, it is drawn as a circle. When the boat is in motion, it takes on a boat shape, pointed in the direction of motion (always Up in the Course-Up orientation). See Navigation Menu Tab: Chart Orientation for more information.

Viewing Cartography

In the Chart or Combo Views, there are several cartography-related functions that you can access using various keys.
Panning: Use the 4-WAY Cursor keys to move the chart around on the display in the direction of the key being pressed. When you do this, a Bullseye Cursor is drawn at the top of the screen and is linked to the boat by a yellow line, even if the boat is off the screen. At the same time, a cursor dialog box is displayed at the top of the screen with the distance and bearing from the boat to the cursor position and the latitude/longitude coordinates of the cursor. When the cursor is active on the display, you can also use the 4-WAY Cursor Control key to move the cursor diagonally.
Zooming: Use the Plus (+) key to Zoom In and the Minus (-) key to Zoom Out showing the cartography at different scales. The scale is indicated on the left side of the display. If you zoom in beyond the available chart data, the display will go into Overzoom mode whereby the last available chart data is amplified to reflect the scale selected. If you zoom in so far that no cartography is available, a lat/lon grid will be drawn instead.
NOTE: Your Chart screen will automatically declutter and simplify as you zoom out. When you zoom out, all waypoint icons that might otherwise overlap each other will declutter the screen by changing into very small blue icons, and individual waypoint names will be hidden (see Chart View). When you're panning, and your cursor snaps to a waypoint that is using the declutter icon, that waypoint will display its full-size icon and name temporarily (until you move the cursor off of it). In addition, when a waypoint name will write on top of another waypoint, the name will be truncated until the cursor snaps to it. Different waypoints will use the declutter feature at different zoom levels.

Page 59
Chart Info: Use the INFO key to get detailed information about the chart. If the cursor is active, you will see information about the chart objects located near the cursor. If the cursor is not active, the Chart Info menu will appear. You can select the nearest port, the nearest tide station, or the nearest current station to see information about any of these objects using the 4-WAY Cursor Control key.
NOTE: The built-in UniMap™ does not contain any Port, Tide or Current information. This information is only available from optional-purchase MMC/SD cards.
Screen Snapshot Waypoints: Use the INFO and 4-WAY Cursor Control keys to view screen snapshot thumbnails. On the Chart View, you can use the INFO key to view Screen Snapshot waypoints. Snapshot waypoints are waypoints that are created while the Snapshot feature is turned on. See Screen Snapshot View for more information.
Screen Snapshots: Use the INFO and 4-WAY Cursor Control keys to view thumbnails of your Screen Snapshots using snapshot waypoints. Snapshot waypoints are waypoints that are created while the Snapshot feature is turned on. See Screen Snapshot View for more information.
NOTE: You must have an MMC/SD card installed to store or view waypoint thumbnails. If you press the INFO key while the cursor is on a snapshot waypoint and the MMC/SD card is missing, only the normal chart information will be displayed.
Nearest Port: The position and services information for the nearest port to your present position will be displayed. Press the EXIT key to remove the information box and the Bullseye Cursor will be centered over the port position. The Cursor Information Boxes will indicate the distance and bearing to the port from your present position. Press the EXIT key again to return to the Chart View.
Nearest Tide Station: Tide information for the nearest tide station to your present position will be displayed. This includes the position of the station and the times of the high and low tides for today’s date. A tide graph is also displayed showing the rise and fall of the tides for the 24 hour time period encompassing the date. You can change the date to look at tide information before or after the date displayed by pressing the LEFT or RIGHT Cursor key respectively. Press the EXIT key to remove the information box and the Bullseye Cursor will be centered over the tide station position. The cursor information boxes will indicate the distance and bearing to the tide station from your present position. Press the EXIT key again to return to the Chart View.
Nearest Current Station: Current information for the nearest current station to your present position will be displayed. This includes the position of the station and the current changes for today. Two graphs are also presented that show the time, direction and flow speed of the current changes for the 24 hour time period of today’s date. You can change the date to look at current information before or after the date displayed by pressing the LEFT or RIGHT Cursor key respectively. Press the EXIT key to remove the information box and the Bullseye Cursor will be centered over the current station position. The Cursor Information Boxes will indicate the distance and bearing to the current station from your present position. Press the EXIT key again to return to the Chart View.

Introduction to Navigation

Use the 1100 Series™ to establish waypoints at areas of interest and to navigate to those waypoints via a saveable route (representing the shortest intended distance between waypoints). You can also view and save tracks, which represent the actual path of the boat.

Waypoints, Routes and Tracks

Waypoints are stored positions that allow you to mark areas of interest or navigation points. Your 1100 Series™ can store up to 3000 waypoints.

Routes link two or more waypoints together to create a path for navigation, and are used in trip planning. You can link individual waypoints together by using the GOTO key. A route represents your intended navigation and shows the shortest path from each waypoint to the next. As you travel a route, staying on the route line is the most efficient way to get to your destination, although you should always look out for obstacles not shown on the chart. Your 1100 Series™ can store up to 50 routes that can each contain up to 50 waypoints.
Tracks consist of detailed position history, and are displayed as a breadcrumb trail of trackpoints. The Current Track shows the position history since the unit was powered up (maximum of 20,000 trackpoints displayed). You can clear the Current Track or save it at any time. Your 1100 Series™ can store up to 50 saved tracks, each containing 20,000 trackpoints. The current track represents your actual path so far.

Save, Edit, or Delete a Waypoint

Save your current position as a waypoint: On any view, press the MARK key to save the current position of the boat as a waypoint.
Save the cursor position as a waypoint: On the Chart or Combo view, use the Cursor key to designate the position you want to save as a waypoint. Then press the MARK key to save the marked position as a waypoint.
Save a position from the sonar history: Use the Cursor key to point to a feature in the sonar history (also called the Sonar Saver feature). Press the MARK key to create a waypoint at the location where that sonar reading was taken. The new waypoint will also record the depth at that location.
NOTE: When you save a waypoint by any of these methods, a numerical waypoint name is automatically assigned. You can edit the waypoint information later to give it a different name and select an icon to represent it (see Waypoint submenu on the Navigation Main Menu Tab).
Display the Waypoints Submenu: From any view, press the MENU key twice to display the Main Menu System, then use the RIGHT Cursor key to select the Navigation tab. Select Waypoints and press the RIGHT Cursor key to display the Waypoints submenu.
Program a specific position as a waypoint: To create a waypoint that is NOT your current position, from the Waypoints submenu, select the Create option and press the RIGHT Cursor key. Use the Cursor keys to program a waypoint name, latitude, longitude, and icon before selecting Save.
Edit a waypoint: From the Waypoints submenu, select Edit and press the RIGHT Cursor key to display a list of saved waypoints. Select the waypoint you want to edit and press the RIGHT Cursor key. Use the 4­WAY Cursor Control key to move from field to field, and the UP and DOWN Cursor keys to changes values once you are in a field. In the Waypoint Name, Latitude and Longitude fields, use the UP and DOWN Cursor keys to change the letter or number. All upper and lower case letters are available, as well as digits 0-9 and some punctuation characters. In the Waypoint Icon field, use the UP and DOWN Cursor keys to change the icon used to represent the waypoint on the Combo and Chart Views. You can exit these fields with the LEFT and RIGHT Cursor keys or by pressing the EXIT key. Select Save and press the RIGHT Cursor key to save your changes.
53
Page 62
To make it easier to select a waypoint, select Sort By and press the RIGHT or LEFT Cursor keys to select a sort order:
Name shows the waypoints alphabetically
Time shows the most recently-created waypoint first
Distance shows the closest waypoint first.
Delete a waypoint: From the Waypoints submenu, select Delete and press the RIGHT Cursor key to display a list of waypoints. Select the waypoint you want to delete, then press the RIGHT Cursor key. You will be asked to confirm deletion before the waypoint is actually deleted.

Navigate to a Waypoint or Position

Navigate to the cursor position: From any Chart or Combo view, use the Cursor key to select a position or waypoint to which you want to navigate. Press the GOTO key. Navigation will begin immediately.
Navigate to a specified waypoint: Press the GOTO key, then choose the waypoint to which you would like to navigate from the waypoint list and press the RIGHT Cursor key to select it.
NOTE: By repeating the previous instructions, you can add more waypoints to create a longer multi-segment route.
Skipping a waypoint: From the Navigation X-Press™ Menu, select Skip Next Waypoint and press the RIGHT Cursor key. If there is not another waypoint to skip to, navigation will be cancelled.
Cancel navigation: From the Navigation X-Press™ Menu, select Cancel Navigation and press the RIGHT Cursor key. Canceling navigation removes the route and any waypoints created using the GOTO key, but does not remove any saved routes from memory. You will be prompted to save the current route when you cancel navigation.

Man Overboard (MOB) Navigation

As soon as you know that you have a man overboard, you should activate MOB navigation to maximize chances for a successful rescue. MOB navigation allows you create a MOB waypoint to locate the point at which your man went overboard, and the relation of the boat to that point. When MOB is activated, a MOB waypoint, which is a permanent, sharable waypoint with a large, distinctive icon, is created at the boat's current position (regardless of whether the chart cursor is active or not). Any current navigation will be cancelled and the current route discarded without user notification, and MOB navigation will begin immediately. A line will be drawn from the boat's current position to the MOB waypoint, and the MOB waypoint will be targeted. The view is switched to the Chart View automatically when MOB is activated, and an additional info box that shows the lat/lon position of the MOB waypoint and the elapsed time since MOB was activated is added to the Chart View.
It is not possible to re-activate MOB or modify the current route without first canceling MOB navigation. The Off Course trigger is also disabled and the Off Course Alarm circle is not drawn. Any press of the GOTO key, or selection of a GOTO menu item, will cause an error beep and a short message will be displayed to the user that will disappear after 2 seconds.

Page 67
Activate MOB navigation: Press and hold the GOTO key for more than 1.5 seconds to activate the Man Overboard (MOB) function.
Cancel MOB navigation: From the Navigation X-Press™ menu, select Cancel MOB and press the RIGHT Cursor key. Canceling MOB navigation removes the route and any waypoints created using the GOTO key, but does not remove any saved routes from memory.

The Menu System

The menu system is divided into easy-to-use menu modules. The main components of the menu system are:
X-Press™ Menu: The X-Press™ Menu allows you to access the settings that are changed frequently without having to navigate through the whole menu system. Press the MENU key once to display the X-Press™ Menu. When you select a menu item from the X-Press™ Menu, the menu will collapse, leaving only the menu choice on the screen. Use the UP or DOWN Cursor keys to reactivate the X-Press™ Menu.
NOTE: The X-Press™ Menu choices will vary depending on which view is active when you press the MENU key, as well as whether you are in Normal or Advanced User Mode. Either the Navigation or Screen Snapshot X-Press™ Menu will appear, depending on the view you are in.
Main Menu Tabs: Less frequently-adjusted menus are grouped into the Main Menu System. The Main Menu system is organized under main tab menu headings to help you find a specific menu item quickly. Main tab headings are: Alarms, Navigation, Chart, Setup, Views, and Accessories.
Navigating Through the Main Menu Tabs: To change an individual menu setting, use a combination of the MENU and the 4-WAY Cursor Control keys, as follows:
1. Press the MENU key twice to display the Main Menu.
2. Use the 4-WAY Cursor LEFT or RIGHT key to select a specific menu tab.
3. Use the DOWN or UP 4-WAY Cursor Control key to select a specific menu item under that tab.
4. Use the LEFT or RIGHT keys again to change a menu setting.
X-Press™ Menu

QUICK TIPS:
• When your cursor is within a menu tab, press the EXIT key to jump directly to the top of the tab.
• If you are at the bottom of a menu tab, press the DOWN Cursor key to jump directly to the top of the tab.
• If you're at the left or right of a menu tab, you can also jump to the other side by pressing the LEFT or RIGHT cursor keys repeatedly until you have moved past the end of the menu.
• A down arrow at the bottom of a menu means that you can scroll to additional menu choices using the DOWN Cursor key.
• A right or left arrow on a menu choice means that you can use the RIGHT or LEFT Cursor keys to make changes or to see more information.
• If you press MENU or EXIT to leave the main menu system, and then you return to the main menu using the MENU key, you will be at the same main menu tab you were on when you last displayed the main menu.
Total Screen Update: When you change any menu settings that affect the view you are in, the view will update immediately (i.e. you don’t have to exit the menu to apply the change to the screen).
User Mode (Normal or Advanced): The Main Menu choices will vary depending on whether you are in Normal or Advanced User Mode. An Advanced Mode is provided for users who desire the highest level of control over the 1100 Series™ and Normal Mode for users who desire greater simplicity and fewer menu choices. Additional Advanced menu choices will be displayed throughout the menu system when you navigate to specific menus while in Advanced Mode. Any changes made while in Advanced Mode will remain in effect after you switch back to Normal Mode. See Setup Menu Tab: User Mode for specific instructions on changing to the User Mode.
NOTE: The 1100 Series™ defaults to Advanced User Mode on start-up.

Simulator
Use the Simulator to learn how to use your 1100 Series™ before taking your boat on the water. The Simulator is a very powerful tool that simulates on-the-water operation, providing a randomly-updated display. We recommend going through this manual while using the Simulator, since all of the menus function and affect the display the way they actually do when in Normal operation.
NOTE: At startup, while still on the Title screen (while the name of your Humminbird® model is still on the screen) you must press the MENU key and then select Simulator manually to enter Simulator mode. Manually selecting Simulator from the Start-Up Options menu allows you to pre-configure your Chartplotter for on the water operation. Any menu changes you make will be saved for later use.
A Simulation message will appear on the display periodically to remind you that you are using the Simulator.
Exit the Simulator by powering your 1100 Series™ off.
System Status
Use System Status to view system connections and to conduct a unit self-test.
The following screens are displayed in turn when you press the VIEW button when using System Status:
Self Test
Accessory Test
GPS Diagnostic View.
Exit System Status by powering your 1100 Series™ off.

GPS Diagnostic View
GPS Diagnostic View, which is only available when a GPS Receiver is attached to your 1100 Series, shows a sky chart and numerical data from the GPS receiver. The sky chart shows the location of each visible GPS satellite with its satellite number and a signal strength bar. A dark gray bar indicates that the satellite is being used to determine your current position. A light gray bar indicates that the satellite is being monitored, but is not yet being used.
This view also reports the current position, local time and date, and other numeric information. The current GPS Fix Type is reported as No Fix, 2D Fix, 3D Fix, or Enhanced. An Enhanced fix has been augmented using information from WAAS, EGNOS, or MSAS. A 3D or Enhanced Fix is required for navigation. HDOP (the Horizontal Dilution of Precision) is a GPS system parameter which depends on the current satellite configuration. HDOP is used to calculate the Estimated Position Error.
