1.3 Turning On and Off the Power

Turning on the power

Turning off the power

Press and hold down the [DIM/PWR] key until the screen goes blank.

Press and hold down the [DIM/PWR] key. The unit beeps and then starts up with the last-used display mode. The GP-30/35 takes about two minutes to find its position when turned on for the very first time. This is because the default position is San Francisco, USA. If you want to lessen the time needed to find position you may enter your position manually on the SIMULATOR screen of the SYSTEM SETUP MENU, referring to 1.7 Simulator Display on page 1-8. Thereafter it takes about 20 seconds to find position each time the power is turned on. If position could not be found, GPS NO FIX appears at the center of the display. When the satellite signal is being received normally, the GP-30/35 displays various abbreviations at the top left-hand corner of the display which show receiver status. Table 1-1 shows these abbreviations and their meanings. Table 1-1 Display abbreviations

4. ROUTES
In many cases a trip from one place to another involves several course changes, requiring a series of route points (waypoints) which you navigate to, one after another. The sequence of waypoints leading to the ultimate destination is called a route. The GP30/35 can automatically advance to the next waypoint on a route, so you do not have to change the destination waypoint repeatedly.
Registering a route

The procedure which follows describes how to create a route from two waypoints in Japan, KOBE and OSAKA. 1. Press the [MENU] key twice. 2. Select ROUTES. 3. Press the [ENT] key. The screen shown in Figure 4-2 appears.

4.1 Creating a Route

You can store up to 30 routes and each route may contain up to 30 waypoints. The unit numbers routes from 01 to 30. The easiest way to create a route is to enter appropriate waypoints beforehand and select them from the waypoint list. However, you may also enter waypoints while creating a route. Note: Be sure to record all important routes in a separate log. This unit is not a fail-safe record keeping device.

SMOOTH S/C (Smoothing speed/ course) During position fixing, ships velocity (speed and course) is directly measured by receiving GPS satellite signals. The raw velocity data may changes randomly depending on receiving conditions and other factors. You can reduce this random variation by increasing the smoothing. Like with latitude and longitude smoothing, the higher the speed and course smoothing the more smoothed the raw data. If the setting is too high, however, the response to speed and course change slows. For no smoothing, enter 0. AVR. SPEED (Speed averaging)

Figure 7-12 GPS SETUP menu 3. Select item and press the [ENT] key. 4. Change setting with the Cursor Pad and press the [ENT] key. 5. Press the [MENU] key twice to finish.
GPS SETUP menu description

Calculation of ETA and TTG, etc. is based on average ship's speed over a given period. If the period is too long or too short calculation error will result. Change this setting if calculation error occurs. The default setting is one minute. LAT/LON OFFSET (Position offset) You may apply an offset to position generated by the GPS receiver, to increase position accuracy. DISABLE SV (Disable satellite) Every GPS satellite is broadcasting abnormal satellite number(s) in its Almanac, which contains general orbital data about all GPS satellites. Using this information, the GPS receiver automatically eliminates any malfunctioning satellite from the GPS satellite schedule. However, the Almanac sometimes may not contain this information. You can disable an inoperative satellite manually. Enter satellite number in two digits and press the [ENT] key. To restore a satellite enter 0.

SMOOTH POS (Smoothing position) When the DOP or receiving condition is unfavorable, the GPS fix may change greatly, even if the vessel is dead in water. This change can be reduced by smoothing the raw GPS fixes. A setting between 0 and 999 is available. The higher the setting the more smoothed the raw data, however too high a setting slows response time to change in latitude and longitude. This is especially noticeable at high ships speeds. 0 is the normal setting; increase the setting if the GPS fix changes greatly.

9. INSTALLATION
9.1 Installation of Display Unit
Mounting considerations

9.2 Installation of Antenna Unit

Mounting considerations

The display unit can be installed on a tabletop, on the overhead, or in a panel (optional flush mounting kit required). Refer to the outline drawing on page D-2, D-3 or D-4 for installation instructions. When selecting a mounting location, keep in mind the following points: Locate the unit away from exhaust pipes and vents. The mounting location should be well ventilated. Mount the unit where shock and vibration are minimal. Locate the display unit away from equipment which generates electromagnetic fields such as a motor or generator. Allow sufficient maintenance space at the sides and rear of the unit and leave sufficient slack in cables, to facilitate maintenance and servicing.
Tabletop and overhead mounting

Overhead

Figure 9-1 Tabletop and overhead mounting methods

Flush mounting

There are two types of flush mounting kits. For details, see the outline drawing on page D-3 and D-4.

Install the antenna unit referring to the installation diagram on page D-1. When selecting a mounting location for the antenna unit, keep in mind the following points: Select a location out of the radar beam. The radar beam will obstruct or prevent reception of the GPS satellite signal. The location should be well away from a VHF antenna. A GPS receiver is interfered by a harmonic wave of a VHF antenna. There should be no interfering object within the line-of-sight to the satellites. Objects within line-of-sight to a satellite, for example, a mast, may block reception or prolong acquisition time. Mount the antenna unit as high as possible. Mounting the antenna unit as high as possible keeps it free of interfering objects and water spray, which can interrupt reception of GPS satellite signal if the water freezes. The length of the whip antenna for the GP-35 should be no longer than 1.2 meter to prevent antenna damage. Do not use a 2.5 meter whip antenna. Do not shorten the antenna cable. If the antenna cable is to be passed through a hole which is not large enough to pass the connector, you may unfasten the connector with a needle nose pliers and 3/8-inch open-end wrench. Refasten it as shown in Figure 9-2 after running the cable through the hole.

Figure 9-3 Wiring Note: The fuse holder contains a spring which fixes the fuse. To fix the spring, tie the line as shown in Figure 9-4.
Fuse holder + line (red)

The display unit contains a CPU. While it is operating, it radiates noise, which can interfere with radio equipment. Ground the unit as follows to prevent interference: The ground wire should be 1.25sq or larger. The ground wire should be as short as possible. The signal ground and frame ground are separated, however the power line is not isolated. Therefore, do not connect the signal ground to the frame ground when connecting other equipment to a positive ground battery. The antenna unit GPA-018 must be grounded. Connect a ground wire of 1.25sq or larger (local supply) between the ground terminal on the antenna unit and a stainless steel screw fastened to the mast. Coat the ground terminal, stainless steel screw and crimp-on lugs on the ground wire with silicone sealant. The power of the GP-35 is not isolated, thus the earth lamp may light when the antenna unit is grounded. If it lights, attach two capacitors (1F, 0.1F) in parallel to the antenna earth line.
External equipment
