charts, which should remain your main reference for all matters related to
the execution of safe navigation.
For this reason we would like to remind you that you should carry on board
and use the official published and approved nautical charts.
CAUTION
- The chart plotter is designed for maritime use. Please give attention to
avoid water intrusion into the C-MAP NT+ C-CARD cartridge holder.
- Extensive exposure to heat may result in damage to the chart plotter.
- The chart plotter contains dangerous high voltage circuits which only
experienced technicians can handle.
- STANDARD HORIZON will not be liable for errors contained herein, or
for incidental or consequential damages in connection with the performance or use of this material.
CLEANING PROCEDURE FOR THE CHART PLOTTER SCREEN
Cleaning of the plotter screen is a very important operation and must be done
carefully. Since the surface is covered by a antireflective coating, the procedure
for cleaning all the surfaces can be performed using the following procedure.You
need a tissue or lens tissue and a cleaning spray containing Isopropanol (a normal
spray cleaner sold for the PC screen, for example PolaClear by Polaroid). Fold the
tissue or lens tissue into a triangular shape, moisten the tip and use the index
finger behind a corner to move the tissue across the surface, in overlapping side
to side strokes. If the tissue is too wet, a noticeable wet film will be left in its path
and you will need to repeat the process. If too dry, the tissue won’t glide easily,
and may damage the surface.

2. GETTING ST ARTED
2.0 INSTALLING THE CHART PLOTTER
Figure 2.0 - Installing/removing chart plotter
The CP1000C has been designed for surface, overhead or flushmounting.
The CP1000C should be temporily connected to power and placed in the desired
mounting location to ensure that no interferance is caused to other electronics or the
compass.
For Surface or Overhead mounting, use the mounting bracket as a template to find the
locations of the bracket screw holes. After the screw locations are found, drill a pilot
hole in each location. Use the supplied hardware to attach the bracket to the dash and
attach the CP1000C to the bracket.
To Flushmount the CP1000C use the supplied template to find the areas that will be
needed to be drilled and cutout. Ensure that you will have enough area behind for
cables.
Cut and drill the areas on the template. Insert the supplied 4 brass studs into the rear
panel of the CP1000C and insert into the holes prevously drilled.
Attached the mounting washers and nuts to each stud from behind the panel.

2.0.0 Chart plotter Dimensions
Figure2.0.0 - Chart plotter Dimensions [mm/inch]
2.1 INSTALLING THE SMART DGPS WAAS ANTENNA
Choose a location for the antenna that has a clear view of the sky. Ensure there are no
major obstructions or fixtures in the immediate proximity to the antenna. The antenna
relies on direct “line of sight” satellite reception. If you are unsure that the chosen location
is suitable it may be advisable to mount the antenna in a temporary manner to verify
correct operation. The thread used on the antenna (1 inch, 14 TPI) is an industry standard
thread used on a wide range of mounting brackets, including the swivel joints commonly
used for angled surfaces. However due to the manufacturing process of these mounting
brackets you may see that there is some slop when tightening down the antenna to the
bracket. This is of no concern however as the antenna must be tightened until the
antenna stops rotating on the antenna mounting bracket.
Page 16 GPS Chart 1000 C
Figure 2.1 - Installing the Smart DGPS WAAS antenna (I)
NOTE
The antenna cable may by cut and spliced to ease installation. Care must be taken
when reconnecting the antenna cable to protect from water and corrosion.
The antenna design also allows for easy flush mounting.
1. Apply the adhesive mounting template sheet in the area that was verified to
receive satellite signal well.
2. Then, following template instruction, drill a 0,63 inch (16 mm) hole and three
0,155 inch (4 mm) holes.
Figure 2.1a - Installing the Smart DGPS WAAS antenna (II)
3. Remove the template and let the cable go through the central hole.
4. Apply a small coat of RTV to the underside of the antenna.
5. Place the antenna and then screw it with the three M3 screws.

2.2 CONNECTING POWER
Before making connections to the chart plotter, check for the correct voltage (10-35V
dc), the correct polarity and be sure the fuse is wired in series on the Black wire.
Connecting the fuse in the black wire protects the NMEA data output wires from
becoming damaged if they are accidentally touched to the red wire (+battery
connection). If the other wires are not used or if the installer is aware of this the 2A fuse
may be used on the red wire from the chart plotter.
