Important
It is the owner’s sole responsibility to install and use the instrument in a manner that will not cause accidents, personal injury or property damage. The user of this product is solely responsible for observing safe boating prac tices.
Global Positioning System: The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the US Government which is solely responsible for its operation, accuracy and maintenance. The GPS system is subjec t to changes which could af fect the accuracy and performance of all GPS equipment anywhere in the world including the TRACKER. Whilst the Navman TRACKER is a precision navigation instrument, it can be misused or misinterpreted, which can result in its use being unsafe. To reduce the risk of misusing or misinterpreting the TRACKER, the user must read and understand all aspects of this Installation and Operation manual. We also suggest that the user prac tice all operations using the built in simulator before using the TRACKER at sea.
Electronic Chart: The elec tronic chart used by the TRACKER is an aid to navigation and is designed to supplement the use of official government charts not replace them. Only off icial government charts supplemented by notices to mariners contain the information required for safe and prudent navigation. Always supplement the information provided by the TRACKER with other plotting sources such as observations, depth soundings, radar and hand compass bearings. Should the information not agree then the discrepancy must be resolved before proceeding any fur ther.
Fuel Computer: Fuel economy can alter drastically depending on the boat loading and sea conditions. The fuel computer should not be the sole source of information concerning available fuel onboard and the electronic information should be supplemented by visual or other checks of the fuel load. This is necessar y due to possible operator induced errors such as forgetting to reset the fuel used when filling the tank, running the engine with the fuel computer not switched on or other operator controlled ac tions that may render the device inaccurate. Always ensure that adequate fuel is carried onboard for the intended trip plus a reserve to allow for unforeseen circumstances.

1 Introduction
1-1 Over view
The NAVMAN TRACKER 5380 is a compact, rugged, highly integrated marine chartplotter. It is easy to use and has a colour display. Complex functions can be performed with a few key presses, taking the hard work out of boating.
This manual covers:
TRACKER 5380
Colour display, ex ternal GPS antenna.
TRACKER 5380i
Colour display, interrnal GPS antenna.
The available func tions, displays and setup menus depend on the optional sensors and instruments that are installed:
Fuel functions require one or more
petrol/gasoline sensors to be installed.
1-2 Cleaning and maintenance
The TRACKER screen is covered by a proprietary anti-reflection coating. To avoid damage, clean the screen only with a damp cloth and mild detergent when dir ty or covered in sea salt. Avoid abrasive cleaners, petrol or other solvents. If a plug -in card gets dirty or wet, clean it with a damp cloth or mild detergent.
1-3 Plug-in cards
The TRACKER can use two kinds of plug-in card:
C-MAP™ chart cards have chart details required for navigating in a par ticular region. When a char t card is plugged in, the extra details automatically appear on the TRACKER chart display.
The TRACKER can use NT, NT+ and NT-MAX
cards.
SmartCraft engine functions require a
SmartCraft system to be installed. For information on using SmartCraft, see the Smart Craft Gateway Installation and Operation Manual.
The TRACKER can send data to other
instruments, such as an autopilot, and receive data from other instruments.
For information on installing options, see section 15-2.
This manual describes how to install and operate the TRACKER. Special terms are explained in Appendix C. For maximum benefit, please read this manual carefully before installing and using the unit. For more information on this instrument and other Navman products, go to our website, www. navman.com.
To optimize performance, avo id walking on or jamming cables and connectors.
Push the dust cover over the display when the TRACKER is turned off.
C-MAP™ user cards are used to store navigation data. Each user card expands the TRACKER memory and allows the data to be transferred to another TRACKER easily (see sec tion 14).
Note: The older 5 volt user cards are not supported.

The chart and highway displays can show a compass at the top of the display.
The compass always shows the boat’s course over ground (COG), a red symbol in the middle. When the boat is navigating to a point, the compass also shows bearing to the destination (BRG), a black symbol.
In this example, BRG is [300]° and COG is [320]°.

3 Navigation: Chart
The chart display shows the char t, the boat’s position course and navigation data.
3-1 Overview of navigating
The TRACKER has two ways of navigating, going straight to a point or following a route.
3-1-1 Navigating to a point
When the TR ACKER is navigating to a point, the chart and highway displays show navigation data:
A The boat position .
B The destination point marked with a circle.
C The boat’s plotted course to the
destination.
D Two CDI lines, parallel to the boat’s plotted
course, which indicate the maximum expected deviation from the plotted course.
For more information, see appendix C.
If the TRACKER is connected to an autopilot, the TRACKER will send data to the autopilot to steer the boat to the destination. Start the autopilot before starting to navigate to the point.
If the TRACKER has no autopilot, steer the boat manually:
3-1-2 Going to a waypoint or to a point on the chart
A waypoint is a position that you can set on the TRACKER chart, for example a f ishing spot or a point on a route (see sec tion 5).
Going to a waypoint from the chart display
1 Go to the char t display.
2 Move the cursor to the waypoint: either use the cursor keys or use Find (see section 3-2-5).

c or use COG and BRG on the compass (see section 2- 8-3).
Note:
1 If the XTE alarm is enabled, an alarm will
sound if the boat deviates too much from its intended course (see section 14-7).
2 If the arrival radius alarm is enabled, then
an alarm will sound to show that the boat has reached the destination (see section 14-7 ).

To create waypoints before creating the
route, see section 5-2-1.
To create a route, see section 6-2-1.
Starting a route from the chart display:

4 The TRACKER displays a chart with the
route marked and star ts navigating from the start of the route.
Navigating
The TRACKER navigates to each waypoint on the route in turn as described in section 3-1-1.
The TRACKER stops navigating to the waypoint at the end of the current leg and starts the next leg of the route:
a when the boat comes within 0.025 nm of
the waypoint
b or when the boat passes the waypoint
c or if you skip the waypoint.
Skipping a waypoint
To skip a waypoint, go to a chart display, press
and select Skip. The TRACKER star ts navigating straight towards the next waypoint on the route.
Warning: Skipping a waypoint with the autopilot on might result in a sudden course change.
