CAUTION
- The GPS Chart Plotter is designed for maritime use. To avoid water intrusion,
ensure the C-MAP B
Y JEPPESEN C-CARD door is completely closed.
- Extensive exposure to heat may result in damage to the GPS Chart Plotter.
- The GPS 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 GPS CHART PLOTTER SCREEN
Cleaning of the chart 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: Use a
clean, soft, lint-free cloth to clean the glass. We recommend using a micro-fiber
cloth. Spray a small amount of ammonia-free cleaner (isopropyl alcohol) onto the
cloth. Spraying on the cloth will prevent overspray. Fold the cloth or lens cloth into
a triangular shape, moisten the tip and use the index finger behind a corner to move
the cloth across the surface in overlapping side to side strokes. If the cloth 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 cloth won’t glide easily, and may damage the surface.

mounting the CP390i and CPF390i in an area where satellite reception is not possible with the
internal antenna or when flush mounted, the optional GPS antenna must be installed.
2.1 BRACKET MOUNTING
Before installing ensure the area the bracket is mounted to is strong enough to support the
weight of the GPS Chart Plotter especially while under way. After the location is found,
CP390i and CPF390i Page 17
attach the mounting base to the area using the supplied hardware.
Figure 2.1 - Example of Bracket installation
2.2 FLUSH MOUNTING
The CP390i and CPF390i are supplied with a flush mount template for the cutout hole and
screw holes required to install the GPS Chart Plotter.
NOTE
Before drilling holes make sure there is enough room to mount the GPS Chart Plotter and there
are no obstructions.
Figure 2.2 - Example of Flush installation
Page 18 CP390i and CPF390i
1. After a location is found, peel the template label from the backing and apply the label
to the mounting area.
2. Drill a hole in one area of the cutout area that will allow the blade of a jig saw to be
inserted. Insert and cut out the area on the panel using the jig saw.
3. Next drill the four holes required to insert the GPS Chart Plotter with the mounting studs.
4. Install the mounting studs on the GPS Chart Plotter and insert into the mounting hole.
5. Attach the GPS Chart Plotter to the mounting location by attaching the supplied
hardware to the mounting studs.
2.3 MOUNTING THE OPTIONAL EXTERNAL GPS ANTENNA
An external WAAS GPS antenna is available when the CP390i and CPF390i is flush
mounted or mounted in an area where satellite reception is not possible with the internal
antenna.This antenna is designed to be mounted on a base, installed on an extension or
flush mounted.
Choose a location for the antenna that has a clear view of the sky and is not located within
3Feet of a Radar or other transmitting antennas. 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 of the chosen location, temporarily mount the antenna
in the desired location to verify correct operation. If mounted close to Radar, after the GPS
Chart Plotter has a fix, turn on the Radar to ensure the GPS Chart Plotter holds the fix (use
the GPS Status Page).
The thread used on the antenna is an industry standard (1inch 14TPI) used on a wide range
of mounting brackets.
NOTE
The antenna cable can be cut and spliced to ease installation. Care must be taken when
reconnecting the antenna cable to protect from water and corrosion.
2.3.0 Flush mounting the antenna
NOTE
Before drilling holes, it is recommended the antenna be positioned where the location is planned,
cable connected to the GPS Chart Plotter and power turned on to ensure a GPS Fix is received.
1. Remove the threaded base from the antenna dome.
2. To ease installation a flush mounting template for the antenna has been included.
3. Apply the mounting template sticker to the area that was verified for GPS reception.
4. Then, drill out the 0.78” (20mm) and 0.13” (3.2mm) holes, and remove the template.
5. Insert the cable into the 0.78” (20mm) hole and route to the GPS Chart Plotter.
6. Apply a small amount or RTV to the underside of the antenna.
7. Place the antenna and then screw it into place using the screws.
NOTE
In some cases the screw may not be long enough. If this happens simply apply more RTV to the
underside of the antenna to glue it into place.

2.7 GPS POSITION ON A VHF RADIO
STANDARD HORIZON has pioneered Digital Selective Calling (DSC) on VHF radios.
Advancements in DSC have made it possible to show the coordinates of a vessel that has
transmitted a DSC Distress Call or even Polled the location of another vessel and show
the position of that vessel on the display of STANDARD HORIZON VHFs.
STANDARD HORIZON has taken this feature one step further. If a CP390i or CPF390i is
connected to a DSC capable VHF, the vessel in Distress or the polled position of the vessel
is shown on the display of the GPS Chart Plotter, making it easy to navigate to the location
of the vessel. This is a great feature that could save someone’s life or for anyone wanting
to know the position of another vessel.
