INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the exciting world of GPS!Whether you’re a first-time user or

a professional navigator, you’ll find the GlobalMap 100 is a full-featured

GPS receiver at a price that was impossible just a few years ago. The

Rockwell^®receiver built inside has 12 channels that will track all of the

satellites that are in view of your location.It’s acquisition time and tracking

ability are second to none in its class.

The Global Positioning System (GPS) was developed by the United States

Department of Defense as a 24-hour a day, 365 days a year global navi-

gation system for the military.Civilian availability was added (but with less

accuracy) using the same satellites.Twenty-four satellites orbit the Earth.

Three of these satellites are spares, unused until needed.The rest virtu-

ally guarantee that at least four satellites are in view of anyplace on Earth

at all times.

The system requires three satellites in order to determine a position.This

is called a 2D fix. It takes four satellites to determine both position and

elevation, (your height above sea level - also called altitude.) called a 3D

fix.

Remember, the unit must have a clear view of the satellites in order to

receive their signals. Unlike radio or television, GPS works at very high

frequencies. The signals can be blocked easily by trees, buildings, even

your body. Fortunately, they do travel through glass and plastic, so your

receiver will work in the car, if it has a clear view of the satellites through

the windshield or side windows. Let someone else drive if you use it in a

car or other vehicle.

Never use this GPS receiver while operating a vehicle!

The first time you use this unit, walk outside and turn it on in your back-

yard, an open field or park. Once it locks onto the satellites, you can ex-

periment with it around buildings and trees. This will give you some idea

of its sensitivity to blockage.

Like most GPS receivers, this unit doesn’t have a compass or any other

navigation aid built inside. It relies solely on the signals from the satellites

to calculate a position. Speed, direction of travel, and distance are all

calculated from position information.Therefore, in order for it to determine

direction of travel, you must be moving and the faster, the better. This is

not to say that it won’t work at walking speeds - it will.There will simply be

more “wandering” of the data shown on the display.

DGPS - What is it?

If you want better performance, (and who doesn’t?) many manufacturers

(including Lowrance) sell a DGPS receiver that attaches to your GPS

receiver.The DGPS system transmits correction signals that increase the

accuracy of your unit.The DGPS receiver takes signals from these land-

based transmitters and gives them to the GPS receiver which then uses

them to show a more accurate position. (You can use the signals from all

of the Coast Guard DGPS stations for free, by the way.) The downside to

this is it requires another piece of electronic gear (the DGPS receiver)

which usually isn’t small enough to carry with you, but will work nicely on

a vehicle. And you have to be close enough to a station to receive the

DGPS signals.

Don’t Get Lost

Generally, you find that using your GPS receiver without DGPS is both

easy and amazingly accurate. It’s easily the most accurate method of

electronic navigation available to the general public today. Remember,

however, that this receiver is only a tool. Always have another method of

navigation available, such as a chart or map and a compass. It’s a good

idea to carry spare batteries with you, especially if you’re venturing into

unknown territory.

Also remember that this unit will always show navigation information in

the shortest line from your present position to a waypoint, regardless of

terrain! It only calculates position, it can’t know what’s between you and

your camp, for example.It’s up to you to safely navigate around obstacles,

no matter how you’re using this product.

GETTING STARTED

Power

The GlobalMap 100 operates from AA batteries or from 5 to 35 volts DC

using an optional external power cable. If the power cable is used, the

GlobalMap 100 automatically switches to it if the external power is greater

than the battery voltage. If the external power fails, the unit automatically

switches to the batteries.

BATTERIES

The unit requires four AA batteries.We recommend you use alkaline bat-

teries for the best trade-off between battery life and cost. However, you

can use nickel-cadmium (ni-cad), or lithium batteries. You can also use

rechargeable alkaline batteries such as RayOVac^®Renewals^®. With the

exception of lithium, none of the above batteries will last as long as stan-

dard alkaline batteries. We recommend DURACELL^®brand, but others

will work. Do not use “heavy-duty” batteries or any type other than the

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

ones listed above. Do not mix different

types of batteries. (For example, don’t

use both alkaline and ni-cad batteries at

the same time.)

Battery Installation

First turn the unit so that its back is fac-

ing you.Push the two tabs to the left and

remove the battery cover as shown at

right.Install the batteries according to this

diagram. (There’s a decal in the battery

compartment showing the correct polar-

ity, also.) Replace the battery compartment

cover and the unit is ready for use.

External Antenna

Although this GPS receiver is extremely sensitive, it can be used in loca-

tions where the built-in antenna simply cannot receive signals from enough

satellites. A second connector on the back of the unit is for an external

antenna.The Lowrance model EA-3 antenna plugs directly into this con-

nector. Other antennas may work. If you use an antenna other than

Lowrance, it will need to be a passive antenna.This unit does not supply

power to the antenna.

Note: There are two plastic caps that cover the power and external an-

tenna connectors. Simply pry these caps off to gain access to the con-

nectors.

OPERATION

Keyboard

There are 12 keys on the keyboard. You navigate through the menus,

adjust the chart’s cursor, and enter data using the arrow keys. The five

major modes of operation are accessed using the PAGES key. Press the

MENU key to select or adjust a feature from a list. The Z-IN and Z-OUT

keys zoom-in or zoom-out the view on the

plotter screen.The ENT and EXIT keys are

used to enter or clear data or screens. Save

and edit waypoints using the WPT key.The

PWR key turns the unit on and off.Pressing

it once while the unit is on turns on the

screen’s backlight.To prevent an accidental

shutdown, you must hold the PWR key down

for a few seconds to turn the unit off.

Menus

Most of the unit’s features are found on “menus’.You can view the menus

by pressing the MENU key. This product has “Intelligent Menus”. There

are many menus that pertain to only the map, for example. When you

press the MENU key and the plotter is showing, menu items for the plotter

show in addition to the normal menus.For example, if the navigation screen

is showing, and you press the MENU key, plotter menu items won’t show

on the list. This helps you find the needed item without scrolling through

unnecessary menus.

Turning Power On

To turn the unit on, simply press the PWR key. A GPS

logo screen appears, then the screen similar to the one

at right appears. Read the message on the screen,

then press the EXIT key to erase it or wait a few sec-

onds and it automatically clears. The screen shown

below appears next.

Satellite Status Screen

This screen appears each time you turn the unit on. It shows a graphical

view of the satellites that are in view. Each satellite is shown on the circu-

lar chart relative to your position.The point in the cen-

ter of the chart is directly overhead. The small inner

ring represents 45° above the horizon and the large

ring represents the horizon. North is at the top of the

screen. You can use this to see which satellites are

obstructed by obstacles in your immediate area if you

hold the unit facing north.

The GPS receiver is tracking satellites that are sur-

rounded by a black box. If the satellite number is not

surrounded by a box, then the receiver hasn’t locked

onto that satellite and it isn’t being used to solve the position.

Beneath the circular graph are the bar graphs, one for each satellite in

view.Although the unit has twelve channels, it dedicates one channel per

visible satellite. Therefore, if only six satellites are visible, only six bar

charts show at the bottom of the screen.The higher the bar on the graph,

the better the unit is receiving the signals from the satellite.

The number in the upper left corner is the “expected horizontal position

error” or expected error from a benchmark location. In other words, if the

expected error shows 50 feet, then the position shown by the unit is esti-

mated to be within 50 feet of the actual location. Although the expected

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

error is only an estimate, it does give you an indicator of the fix quality the

unit currently has.The smaller the expected error number, the better (and

more accurate) the fix is.

If the expected error is flashing, then the unit has not locked onto the

satellites, and the number shown is not valid.

The fix indicator on the left center shows either 2D or 3D. A 2D fix means

the unit has locked onto three satellites and has calculated its position. A

3D fix means the unit has locked onto at least four satellites and has

calculated both the position and altitude.(Remember, it takes three satel-

lites to determine the position - four to determine position and altitude.) If

neither 2D nor 3D are showing, then the unit doesn’t have the position or

altitude.

A battery level indicator on the lower right side of the screen shows ap-

proximately how much life is in the batteries. This runs from “F” (fully

charged) to “E” (expired).

A light bulb indicator at the top right corner of the screen appears when

the backlights are on.

FindingYour Position

Auto Search

To lock onto the satellites, the GPS receiver needs to know it’s current

position, local time, and date.(Elevation (altitude) is also used in the equa-

tion, but it’s rarely required to determine a position.) It needs this data so

that it can calculate which satellites should be in view. It then searches for

only those satellites. When your GPS receiver is turned on for the first

time, it doesn’t know what your position or elevation (altitude) is. It does

know the current UTC time and date since these were programmed into it

at the factory and an internal clock keeps the time while the unit is turned

off. It begins searching for the satellites using the above data that it ac-

quired the last time it was turned on. This probably was at the Lowrance

factory. Since it’s almost certain that you’re not at the Lowrance factory,

it’s probably looking for the wrong satellites. If it doesn’t find the satellites

it’s looking for after five minutes, it switches to Auto Search.The receiver

looks for any satellite in the sky. Due to advanced technology, the auto

search time has shrunk to about five minutes, so the longest time you

should ever have to wait is ten minutes from the time you turn the unit on

until it locks onto the satellites and shows a position. Once the unit locks

onto the satellites, it should take less than a minute to find your position

the next time it’s turned on, provided you haven’t moved more than ap-

proximately 100 miles from the last location it was used.

Manual Initialization

If you don’t want to wait for the Auto Search, then you may be able to

speed up the initialization process by using the manual initialization fea-

ture.Using this feature tells the unit it’s approximate position.Once it knows

it’s location, it determines exactly which satellites should be in view and

starts looking only for those satellites.

To manually initialize the unit, press the MENU key. Now press the down

arrow key until the “GPS SETUP” label is highlighted.

Press the right arrow key. The “INIT GPS” (Initialize

GPS) label is highlighted. Press the right arrow key

again.The screen at right appears.Use the arrow keys

to move the crosshairs to your approximate location

on the map. You may use the ZOUT key to zoom the

map out.This will make it easier and faster to find your

location on the map. Once you have the crosshairs on

your location, press the ENT key. The unit returns to

the satellite status screen.

Using the manual initialization method loads a position

that’s close to yours into the GPS receiver. It should now have position,

time, and date, thereby giving it the data it needs to determine which

satellites are in view. Once the satellites are known, the receiver searches

for only those satellites, making a lock faster than an auto search method.

Position Acquisition

When the receiver locks onto the satellites and calculates a position, it

shows the message “Position Acquired” on the screen. All position and

navigation data flashes until the unit acquires a position. Do not rely on

any data that is flashing! When the numbers are flashing, they represent

the last known values when the unit lost it’s lock on the satellites.

(Note: The altitude data may still flash even if the unit shows a “Position

Acquired” message and all other data is not flashing. The unit must be

locked onto at least four satellites to determine altitude.It only takes three

satellites to determine position.You can navigate with this unit if the alti-

tude is flashing, simply ignore the altitude display until it quits flashing.)

REMEMBER, DO NOT NAVIGATE WITH THIS UNIT UNTIL THE

NUMBERS STOP FLASHING!

Once the unit has acquired the satellites and is showing a fix on the sta-

tus screen, or the position acquired message appears, it’s ready for use.

POSITION/NAVIGATION SCREENS

This unit has four modes: status, map, navigation, and window groups.

Use the PAGES and arrow keys to switch between the different screens.

The four screens that show by default are shown below.

STATUS

NAVIGATION

MAP

WINDOWS

To change modes, simply press the PAGES key. A

screen similar to the one at right appears. Use the up

or down arrow keys to change modes. (The windows

mode is shown as “groups”. Group “A” is the first win-

dows group.)

Press the right arrow key while the above menu is show-

ing to switch between different versions of each mode.

When the desired screen appears, press the EXIT key

to erase the menu.

Navigation Screens

There are two different navigation

screens. Nav screen number one

shows a graphical view of your trip,

Nav screen number 2 shows all

navigation details in large digital

numbers.You can also customize

both navigation screens to show

data other than the default.See the

“Programming Boxes” section for

more information.

NAV-1

NAV-2

Nav Screen #1

This screen has a compass rose that shows not only

your direction of travel, but also the direction to a re-

called waypoint. The navigation screen looks like the

one at right when you’re not navigating to a waypoint.

Your position is shown by an arrow in the center of the

screen. Your trail history, or path you’ve taken is de-

picted by the line extending from the arrow.The arrow

pointing down at the top of the compass rose indicates

the current track (direction of travel) you are taking.

This is also shown in the “TRK” (track) box in the upper right corner of the

screen. On the example shown at right, the track is 355°. The current

ground speed (GS) shows in the box in the lower center of this screen.

When navigating to a waypoint, Nav screen number

one looks like the one at right. Bearing to the destina-

tion waypoint is in the box in the upper left corner.Bear-

ing is also shown by the large arrow pointing up to-

wards the compass, above the present position arrow.

Distance from the present position to the waypoint (DIS)

shows beneath the compass on the lower left side of

the screen.

Lines on either side of the present position show the

current cross track error range.Cross track error is the

distance you are off-course to the side of the desired course line. The

course line is an imaginary line drawn from your position when you started

navigating to the destination waypoint. It’s shown on the screen as a

vertical dotted line.The default for the cross track error range is 0.25 mile.

For example, if the present position symbol touches the right cross track

error line, then you are .25 mile to the right of the desired course. You

need to steer left to return to the desired course. The cross track error is

also shown in the “XTK”box.In the upper right corner is the course (CRS)

box showing the direction from your starting position to the waypoint. Re-

member, a course is a proposed path from the starting

position to the destination. Track is your actual direc-

tion of travel.

A circle depicting your destination (waypoint) appears

on the screen as you approach the waypoint as shown

on the screen at right.

Nav Screen #2

This navigation screen shows all navigation informa-

tion in large digital numbers.To view this screen, press

the PAGES key, then select the “NAV1” label.While it’s

selected, press the right arrow key.The screen shown

at right appears.Press the EXIT key to erase the menu.

This screen is composed of eight digital boxes. Track

(TRK) and ground speed (GS) data are all that show if

you’re not navigating to a waypoint. If you are navigat-

ing to a waypoint, then bearing (BRG), distance to waypoint (DIS), esti-

mated time en route (ETE), cross track error (XTK), destination arrow,

and the CDI also show.

The destination arrow shows the direction to the destination when the top

of the screen is pointing in your direction of travel.

Course Deviation Indicator (CDI)

Once navigation to a waypoint is established, the CDI

shows your distance to the left or right of the desired

course. The vertical line in the box shows both the di-

rection you must steer to get back on course and the

distance to the course line. For example, if you’re trav-

elling straight towards the destination, from the start, then the line stays in

the center.If you drift off course to the right, the line moves to the left.This

signifies that you need to steer to the left to get back on course. This is

called “chasing the needle”. If you steer towards the line (needle), you’ll

always be heading in the correct direction to get back on course.

The CDI’s range shows beneath the CDI label. On the above screen, the

CDI range is .20 mile, which is the default. You can adjust the range by

selecting the “ALARMS/CDI” label on the main menu.This is also shown

by the dotted lines at the far left and right side of the CDI. If the solid line

is on either of the dotted lines, then you are 0.20 mile off course.Remem-

ber, if the line moves to the left, then you are too far to

the right of the desired course line and vice-versa.

Using the CDI with a mapping screen helps you visu-

alize your position in relation to the course.This screen

shows that we are off course to the right. The vertical

bar has moved to the left side of the CDI, showing the

direction to the desired course line.The CDI gives you

a quick, visual indicator of your relationship between

your direction of travel and the destination.

Map

The GlobalMap 100 has a ground map of the world built inside.This map

has the majority of its detail in far southern Canada,

the continental United States and Hawaiian islands,

northern Mexico, the Bahamas, and Bermuda.The map

screens show your course and track from a “birds-eye”

view.If you’re navigating to a waypoint, the map shows

your starting location, present position, course line, and

destination.You don’t have to navigate to a waypoint,

however, to use the map.

Using the map is as simple as pressing the PAGES

key, then highlighting “MAP 1”. A screen similar to the

one at right appears. The arrow flashing in the center

of the screen is your present position. It points in the direction you’re trav-

elling. The solid line extending from the arrow is your plot trail, or path

you’ve taken. The plotter’s range shows in the lower left corner of the

screen. In this example, the plotter’s range is two miles from the left edge

of the screen to the right.

There are three different mapping screens.To view the other map screens,

press the PAGES key, highlight the MAP label, and press the right arrow

key until the desired map screen appears. Press the EXIT key to erase

the menu.Map-2 (shown below) has navigation data added at the bottom

of the screen, beneath the map. The data includes bearing to waypoint

(BRG), track (TRK), and distance to waypoint (DIS).

MAP-1

MAP-2

MAP-3

Map-3 is similar to Map-2. It shows ground speed (GS), track (TRK), and

the CDI at the bottom of the screen.

The Z-IN and Z-OUT keys zoom-in and out all maps to enlarge or reduce

their coverage area.The available ranges are:0.1, 0.15, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.6,

0.8, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 60, 80, 100, 150, 200, 300,

400, 600, 800, 1000, 1500, and 2000 miles.

Cursor

Pressing an arrow key turns on two dotted lines that

intersect at the present position symbol. These lines

are called a “cursor” and have a variety of uses.

To turn the cursor on, simply press the arrow key in the

direction you want the cursor to move. This lets you

view areas on the plotter that are away from your

present position.The zoom-in and zoom-out keys work

from the cursor’s position when it’s active - not the

present position. You can zoom in on any detail, any-

where. The cursor can also place icons and waypoints.

Press the EXIT key to erase the cursor. The unit centers your present

position on the screen after erasing the cursor.

Map Setup

The map has many customization options. To change

them, first press the MENU key while a map is showing

on the screen. The map setup screen is highlighted.

Press the right arrow key. A screen similar to the one

at right appears.

Change Maps

Changes made to the map using the options in the

Map Setup is normally made to all map screens. The

change can be limited to the map screen currently in use, however, by

switching the “All Maps” to “This Map” in the “Change” menu. To do this,

simply highlight the “Change” label, then press the right arrow key. To

switch back, repeat the above.

Map Options

The following map options are listed under the “Map

Options” menu: Map Orientation, Auto Zoom, View

Destination, Range Rings, and Grids.

Map Orientation

By default, this receiver shows the map with north al-

ways at the top of the screen. This is the way most

maps and charts are printed on paper. This is fine if

you’re always travelling due north.What you see to your

left corresponds to the left side of the map, to your right is shown on the

right side of the map, and so on.However, if you travel any other direction,

the map doesn’t line up with your view of the world.

To correct this problem, a track-up mode rotates the map as you turn.

Thus, what you see on the left side of the screen should always be to your

left, and so on.A course-up mode keeps the map at the same orientation

as the initial bearing to the waypoint.

In the north-up view shown below left, we're travelling southeast towards

camp, saved as waypoint number 14. In this view, the present position

indicator appears to move towards the lower right corner of the screen.

NORTH-UP

TRACK-UP

COURSE-UP

In the track-up view, the present position moves straight towards the top

of the display. A "N" shows to help you see which direction is north when

the track-up mode is on. Remember, in the track-up mode, the screen

rotates as you change direction. It always keeps your direction of travel

(track) heading towards the top of the screen.

In the course-up mode, the screen is locked into your original bearing to

the recalled waypoint, regardless of your track.

To select the desired mode, first press the MENU key, select “MAP 1

SETUP”, then select “MAP OPTIONS”.Finally, select “ROTATE”and press

the right or left arrow key until the desired mode appears. Press the EXIT

key to erase this menu.

AUTOZOOM

This receiver has an autozoom feature that eliminates much of the button

pushing that competitive units force you to make. It works in conjunction

with the navigation features. First, recall a waypoint. (See the waypoint

section for more information on navigating to a waypoint.) Then, with the

autozoom mode on, the unit zooms out until the entire course shows,

from the present position to the destination waypoint (recalled waypoint).

As you travel towards the destination, the unit automatically begins zoom-

ing in, one zoom range at a time, keeping the destination on the screen.

The screens below show a slice of the progression of a trip near a lake.

Screen number one is the start and is on the 6 mile range. Intermediate

stages progressively zoom in as it gets closer to the destination.

To use the autozoom feature, first press the MENU key, select “Map 1

WAYPOINTS

This GPS receiver gives you the ability to create your own database of

locations, called “waypoints’.You can save your present position, cursor

position, or enter a coordinate and save it as a waypoint. For example,

you may wish to store the location of your parked car as a waypoint be-

fore starting on a hike.When you want to return to the car, all you have to

do is recall the waypoint and the unit will show distance and bearing from

your present position to the car. This unit stores up to 750 waypoints.

Waypoint Menu

With few exceptions, in order to save, modify, or recall

a waypoint, you’ll use the waypoint menu, shown at

right.The current waypoint number shows at the top of

the screen. Its name appears beneath the “GO TO

WPT”label.The waypoint’s position, distance and bear-

ing from your present position to the waypoint, and the

date and time the waypoint was saved show at the

bottom of the screen. It’s icon shows just to the right of

the distance and bearing.In short, all of the detail about

the waypoint shows on this screen.

SavingYour Present Position as a Waypoint (Quick Save Method)

To save your present position, simply press the WPT

key twice. Your current position is placed into the first

available waypoint number on the list. A message ap-

pears on the display telling you the waypoint number it

just used.This also momentarily places you in the way-

point menu.Anytime this menu is showing, simply press

the WPT key once and the unit will store your present

position on the waypoint list. In this case, waypoint

number two was assigned when the position was saved.

SavingThe Cursor Position as a Waypoint

When the cursor is showing on the map and you press the WPT key

twice, the cursor’s position is placed into the first available waypoint num-

ber. In the example screen shown below, the cursor is placed at the

desired location. Pressing the WPT twice causes waypoint number three

to be placed at the cursor’s crosshairs.(Waypoint 3 was the next available

waypoint number.) A message appears on the display telling you the

waypoint number it just used.Wait a few seconds and the menu will clear

automatically. Press the EXIT key to erase the cursor.

SavingYour Present Position as a Waypoint

(Select Number Method)

The method shown previously doesn’t let you choose

the waypoint number.You can pick the waypoint num-

ber, then save your present or cursor position.To save

your present position, press the WPT key once. (If

you’re saving the cursor position, first move the cursor

to the desired location, then press the WPT key.) A

screen similar to the one at right appears.

Highlight the“WPT”label at the top of the screen.Press

the right or left arrow keys until the desired waypoint

number appears that you wish to save your present

(or cursor) location under.Waypoint number 4 is used

in this example.Now select “CREATEWPT” .A screen

similar to the one at right appears. Finally, highlight

“CURRENT POS” and press the right arrow key. The

unit returns to the waypoint screen with the position

saved under the selected waypoint number. Note: you

can save the position on any waypoint number, even if

a position is already stored on the desired number.

Saving a New Position

To save a position other than the cursor’s or the present

position as a waypoint, first select the waypoint num-

ber as described on the previous page. Next, select

“CREATE WPT”. The screen shown at the bottom of

the previous page appears.Select “ENTER POS”.The

screen shown at right appears. Using the arrow keys,

enter the latitude and longitude of the position that you

want to save. (Note: latitude and longitude is the de-

fault, however if UTM or other position format is in use,

this screen will let you enter the position in the format

that’s currently in use.)

Waypoint Averaging

Although electronic position finding devices such as this one show the

position in precise digital numbers, there is some ambiguity in the dis-

played position.With position pinning turned off, you can see this by watch-

ing the position displayed on the unit move while you’re standing still.This

is due to many factors; SA, atmospheric conditions, the number of satel-

lites being tracked and their location relative to your position, and so on.

However, even with SA turned on, this GPS receiver can show surpris-

ingly accurate position information. If you wish to increase the accuracy

of a saved position, use the waypoint averaging method. This method

requires the unit to remain untouched at the location that you want to

save, preferably for at least one hour. Longer times will result in a better

position. The unit averages all of the positions reported by its GPS re-

ceiver, resulting in typically higher position accuracy.

To use this feature, first press the WPT key and select

a waypoint number, then select “CREATE WPT”. The

screen at the bottom of the previous page appears.

Now select “AVERAGE POS”. The screen shown at

right appears. Your present position shows at the top

of the screen. A box with a plotter graphically shows

the movement of your average position. The number

of positions or points taken appears beneath the plot-

ter.The position is updated once per second.Now place

the unit where it has an unobstructed view of the sky.

At the end of the position gathering time, press the ENT key to save the

averaged position.

Project aWaypoint

You can save a waypoint even if you don’t know it’s

position or location on the map.This unit lets you project

the location of a waypoint from a known waypoint us-

ing only bearing and distance from the known way-

point.This is useful if you don’t know the latitude/longi-

tude of a location, but you do know the distance and

bearing from a saved waypoint or your own position.

(Note: To project a waypoint from your present posi-

tion, you must first save your present position as a

waypoint.)

To use this feature, press the WPT key, then select a

waypoint number that you want to save the projected

waypoint under. Waypoint 5 is used in this example.

Now select “CREATEWPT”.Finally, select “PROJECT

POS”.The screen shown above appears.

The unit needs a location (reference waypoint) to

project the new waypoint from. The default reference

is waypoint number one. Highlight the “REFERENCE

WPT” label on the Project WPT menu and press the

right arrow key. The screen at right appears. Select a

waypoint using either the waypoint number, or way-

point list. When you’ve chosen the waypoint, highlight

the “SET REFERENCE” label and press the right ar-

row key. The unit returns to the Project WPT screen

shown above.The starting waypoint you chose shows

SELECTING AWAYPOINT

In order to edit or navigate to a waypoint, you must first

select it. There are three ways to do this: by waypoint

number, waypoint list, or search by name. All selection

methods are on the main waypoint menu shown at right.

Waypoint Number

To select a waypoint by its number, simply highlight

the “WPT” label at the top of the waypoint menu, then

press the left or right arrow keys until the desired way-

point number appears.

Waypoint List

The waypoint number selection method forces you to

scroll through all waypoint numbers, whether there’s a

location saved in them or not.The waypoint list is com-

posed only of saved waypoints. To use the list, select

“WPT LIST”from the waypoint menu.The screen shown

at right appears.The names of all waypoints stored in

memory show on this list. Simply highlight the desired

waypoint and press the right arrow key to select it.The

waypoint menu reappears.

(Note: When created, a waypoint is given a default name designated by

an asterisk (*). Default names are not shown on the map. The waypoint

number is shown until it’s renamed.)

EDITING A WAYPOINT

You can customize a waypoint by giving it a name or change it’s position

or icon.To do this, first press the WPT key.The waypoint screen appears.

Follow the instructions below for each item.

Edit Position

Any latitude/longitude can be assigned to any waypoint

by manually entering it using the keyboard. First se-

lect the waypoint number that you want to save a po-

sition under from the waypoint menu. Next, highlight

“EDIT POSITION” and press the right arrow key. The

screen shown at right appears. Using the left and right

arrow keys, highlight each number in the position and

change it using the up and down arrow keys. When

you’re ready to save this position and return to the way-

point screen, press the ENT key. Note: You can also

use this method to change the position of an existing waypoint.

Navigating to a Waypoint using the Map

The unique “birds-eye” view used by the map gives

you an easy way to navigate to a waypoint.On the map

screen shown at right, the arrow is your present posi-

tion.The box with the “S”in it was your starting location

when the waypoint was recalled.The dotted line is called

a course line and is the shortest path from the starting

location to the destination.The number “4” is waypoint

number four, which is the recalled waypoint and the

destination. The “D” on the map screen at the top of

this page is the cursor destination, when the cursor

position is used as a destination.If you follow the course

line, you’ll reach the destination, covering the shortest distance in the

least time.

CAUTION!

This product does NOT take land features, restricted or prohibited areas,

or any other feature into account when it projects the course line on the

screen.Use caution when navigating to a location.Make certain there are

no obstructions in your path.

returns to the route list with the waypoint removed from

the list. (Note: This doesn’t delete the waypoint from

the database, it simply removes it from the route.)

Waypoint Statistics

By default, this unit shows the distance and bearing

from each waypoint in the route to the next. It will also

show estimated time en route (ETE), estimated time of

arrival (ETA), or the waypoint names (NAMES).To view

the different statistics, highlight the “SHOW-DIS/BRG”

label, then press the left or right arrow key until the

desired statistic appears.

Following a Route - Direct To Method

Before starting the route, you’ll need to decide if you

want to start at the first waypoint and travel forward to

the last waypoint or start at the last waypoint in the

route and travel backwards (reverse) to the first way-

point. The default is forward.You can also start at the

closest waypoint to your position, then travel forward

or reverse through the route using the “AUTO START”

feature.

To follow a route, first select the route number that you

wish to follow by highlighting the “Route #” label, and

pressing the left or right arrow keys until the desired

route number appears. In this example we’re using

route number one. To run the route from the last way-

point to the first, highlight the “RUN” label and press

the right arrow key to change it from forward to re-

verse.

Now highlight the first waypoint in the route that you

wish to start with and press the right arrow key. (The

first waypoint in the route is used in this example.)The

waypoints in the route. Follow these lines to get to each of the waypoints.

When you enter the radius set by the arrival alarm, the unit automatically

switches to the next waypoint on the list, showing navigation data to that

waypoint, and so on until the last waypoint on the route list has been

reached. (Note: The arrival alarm does not have to be turned on.) The

unit continues to show navigation data to the last waypoint in the route

until you end the navigation. (See “Cancel Navigation)

Following a Route - Auto Start Method

You don’t have to choose the starting waypoint in a

route. Selecting “AUTO START” on the route planning

menu, starts navigation along the leg of the route that

is closest to your present position. The screen shown

below left shows the result of the auto start feature.

When the route was started, the first leg of the route

(from waypoint #4 to waypoint #2) was the closest to

the present position. Therefore, the unit shows navigation information to

waypoint number 2. The first leg of the route, from #4 to #2 is shown on

the screen by a dotted line. Once you arrive at waypoint number 2, the

unit switches to the next waypoint in the route, and so

on.The rest of the route navigation is used normally.

Position Format

The GlobalMap 100 can show the position in degrees, minutes, and thou-

sandths of a minute (36° 28.700') or degrees, minutes, seconds, and tenths

of a second (36° 28' 40.9"). It can also show position in UTM (Universal

Transverse Mercator) projection, British, Irish, Swedish, Swiss, Finnish,

New Zealand, and Military Grid.

UTM’s are marked on USGS topographic charts.This system divides the

Earth into 60 zones, each 6 degrees wide in longitude.

German, Taiwan, British, Irish, Swedish, Swiss, New Zealand, and Finn-

ish grid systems are the national coordinate system used only in their

respective countries. In order to use these grid systems, you must be in

the respective country.This unit will pick the matching datum for you when

you select the grid. See the Datums section for more information.

The military grid reference system (MGRS) uses two grid lettering

schemes, which are referred to as standard and alternate MGRS on the

GlobalMap 100.Your position and datum in use determines which one to

use. If you use the standard, and your position is off significantly, then try

using the alternate.

Note: When the position format is changed, it affects

the way all positions are shown on all screens. This

includes waypoints.

To change the format, highlight the “Position Format”

label on the “GPS Setup” menu, then press the right

arrow key. A screen similar to the one at right appears.

Press the up or down arrow keys to select the desired

format. Press the EXIT key to erase the position for-

mat menu.

DATUM

Maps and charts are based on a survey of the area that’s covered by the

map or chart.These surveys are called “Datums”. Maps that are created

using different datums will show the same latitude/longitude in slightly

different locations.

All datums are named.The GPS system is based on the WGS-84 datum,

which covers the entire world. Other datums may also cover the entire

world, or just a small portion. By default, your position shows using the

WGS-84 datum. However, it can show your position using one of 191

different datums.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

To change the datum, first press the MENU key, then

highlight the “GPS Setup” label and press the right ar-

row key.Now highlight the “Select Datum”label.Finally,

press the right arrow key again. A screen similar to the

one at right appears.

The WGS-84 label is highlighted. To change it, simply

press the up or down arrow keys to highlight the de-

sired datum, then press the ENT key. This selects the

datum and erases the select datum menu. To erase

the menu without changing the datum, simply press

the EXIT key.

A list of the datums used by the GlobalMap 100 is in the back of this

manual.

PCF (Position Correction Factor)

Another method used to make your display match a chart or map is called

“PCF” or Position Correction Factor. This unit gives you the capability to

move or offset the position shown on the display to match one on the

chart.The unit will add this offset to all position and navigation displays at

all times.

Remember, the position error on any radio navigation system is very dy-

namic and the PCF offset should never be used in an attempt to cancel

the error.

In general terms, PCF should only be used if your map indicates what the

possible error is. PCF should always be reset to zero when you’re

finished with the chart.

For example, suppose you are stopped at a location that is accurately

marked on a chart.Your unit shows a longitude position that is .244 min-

utes east of the one on the chart and .047 minutes north latitude. Using

the PCF feature, you can make the GlobalMap 100 match the chart you’re

using. If you move, the unit will continuously add the change to all posi-

tion, navigation, and mapping displays.This makes it more closely match

the datum used by the chart. For this reason, you should be careful when

entering the PCF offset. It’s saved in memory and doesn’t change when

the unit is turned off. However, resetting the unit does erase the PCF

offset.

To change the PCF offset, first press the MENU key, then highlight the

“GPS Setup” label and press the right arrow key. Now highlight the “Set

PCF Offset” label. Finally, press the right arrow key

again.

A screen similar to the one at right appears.

Now enter the correction for your location. Remember,

this is the difference between the location shown on

the present position display and the position shown on

the chart.In this example, we entered 0 degrees, 0.047

minutes north latitude and 0 degrees, 0.244 minutes

east longitude. That is the difference between the

present position shown by the GlobalMap 100 and the

one on our chart.

After you’ve entered the latitude/longitude correction,

press the ENT key to accept it. The GlobalMap 100

erases the PCF entry screen and returns to the navi-

gation or mapping screens with the correction factor

applied.

POSITION PINNING

When using a GPS receiver at extremely low speeds, it can have trouble

determining your course over ground, or direction you’re travelling.This is

due in large part to SA, or selective availability. SA is small inaccuracies

purposefully put into the GPS satellite’s signal by the government. This

cause wide variations in the track display and other navigation displays

when using the unit at slow speeds.

If you’re using this receiver without DGPS and stop, the position pinning

feature locks the present position indicator on the plotter until you’ve moved

a short distance or exceed a very slow speed.This prevents the “wander-

ing” plot trail seen when you’re stopped with position pinning turned off.

This also affects the navigational displays.

The easiest way to see the effects of S/A is to stand still with the GPS

receiver turned on and watch your plot trail with position pinning turned

off.You’ll see the present position change, speed increase and decrease,

and a random plot trail on the plotter’s screen.

If you wish to turn the position pinning feature off, press the MENU key,

then highlight the “GPS Setup” label and press the right arrow key. Now

highlight the “Pinning” label. Finally, press the left arrow key.

Map Fix

Map Fix is used with charts or maps.This system asks

for a reference position in latitude/longitude, which you

take from a marked location on the map. It then shows

the present position as distance on the map from that

reference point. For example, if it shows a distance of

UP 4.00” and LEFT 0.50”, you then measure up four

inches and to the left a half-inch from the reference

point on the map to find your location.

To use this format, you need to follow these steps in

order.First, take your map of the area and determine a

reference latitude/longitude. (Note: in order for this

system to work, the latitude/longitude lines must be

parallel with the edge of the map. USGS maps are

parallel, others may not be.Also, this works better with

smaller scale maps.) The reference position can be

anywhere on the map, but the closer it is to your

location, the smaller the numbers will be that you’ll have

to deal with.

Once you’ve decided on a reference position, you’ll

need to save it as a waypoint.See the waypoint section

for information on saving a waypoint using the EDIT

Position method. Save the reference position as a

waypoint. Exit from the waypoint screens.

Press the MENU key, then select GPS Setup. Now

select“Map Fix Setup”.”Reference Point”is highlighted.

Press the right arrow key. Select the waypoint number

that you saved the reference point under. Select “SET

REFERENCE” and press the right arrow key. The unit

returns to the Map Fix Setup menu. Now select “Map

Scale”. Enter the map’s scale. This is generally at the

bottom of the paper map. It’s shown as a ratio, for

example 1:24000. In this example, we entered 24000

as a map scale. (Ignore the 1:) The unit returns to the

Map Fix Setup screen.

Finally, press the EXIT key to erase this menu. Now

select “Position Format”. Select Map Fix from the list

and press the EXIT key. All position information now

shows as a distance from the reference point you

entered and saved as a waypoint earlier.

ALARMS

The GlobalMap 100 has several alarms.You can set an arrival alarm to

flash a warning message and sound a tone when you cross a preset

distance from a waypoint.For example, if you have the arrival alarm set to

.1 mile, then the alarm will flash a message when you come within .1 mile

of the recalled waypoint. The course deviation indicator alarm (CDI) can

warns when your track drifts too far to the right or left of the course line to

the waypoint. For example, if the alarm is set to .1 mile, then the alarm

flashes a message if you drift .1 of a mile or more to the right or left of the

line to the waypoint.The anchor alarm is triggered when you drift outside

of a preset radius. Again, using the .1 mile as an example, if you’re an-

chored and your boat moves more than .1 of a mile, the alarm will flash a

message and sound a tone.

To use any of these alarms, first press the MENU key,

then select the “ALARMS/CDI”menu.A screen similar

to the one shown at right appears.Press the up or down

arrow key to move the black box to the desired alarm,

then press the right arrow key to turn it on.

To adjust an alarm’s distance, move the black box to

the alarm’s “DIS”menu item, then press the right or left

arrow keys to increase or decrease the alarm’s dis-

tance.

When you’re finished, press the EXIT key to erase this menu.

Important Alarm Notes:

Anchor Alarm - Since civilian users don’t receive the accuracy given to

military users, the anchor alarm may be triggered even when you’re sit-

ting still. This typically happens when using small (less than .05 mile)

anchor alarm ranges. If you have a DGPS beacon receiver connected to

the GlobalMap 100, smaller ranges may be usable.

Arrival Alarm - If you set the arrival alarm’s distance to a small number,

and you run a route (see the routes section), the GlobalMap 100 may not

show navigation data to the next waypoint, once you arrive at the first

one, since you may not be able to come close enough to the first waypoint

to trip the arrival alarm.

MESSAGES

The DGPS message selections are found on the Alarms/CDI menu shown

above. Pressing the EXIT key erases these messages.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

The DGPS message appears whenever the unit begins or stops using

DGPS data to help determine your position.

The default setting for these messages is “on”. To turn the message off,

select the“Setup Alarms”menu from the main menu, then highlight “DGPS

MSG” and press the left arrow key.

SUNRISE/SET MOONRISE/SET CALCULATOR

This unit has a sunrise/sunset and moonrise/moonset calculator that shows

this information anywhere or anytime in the world. To use it, press the

MENU key, then highlight “SUN/MOON CALC” and

press the right arrow key. Highlight either the sun or

moon calculator and press the right arrow key. The

screen shown at right appears if you chose the sunrise

calculator. (Both calculators work identically.The sun-

rise/sunset calculator is used for this example.) The

sunrise and sunset for today’s date appear in the cen-

ter of the screen. Today’s date shows at the top of the

screen. If you want to know the sunrise/sunset for a

different date, press the ENT key, then enter the new

date with the arrow keys. The unit returns to the sun-

rise/sunset calculator screen with the sunrise and sun-

set times shown for the date you entered.

The sunrise and sunset show for your present position. If you move the

plotter’s cursor to a different position before using this calculator, it will

show the sunrise/sunset for the cursor’s location.

The moonrise/moonset calculator works identically to

the sunrise/sunset calculator.It looks like the screen at

right. A moon symbol shows near the bottom of the

screen, showing the approximate phase of the moon.

The arrow next to the symbol shows if it is moving to-

wards a full moon (up) or a new moon (down).

Press the EXIT key to erase this screen.

Note:The sunrise/sunset and moonrise/moonset calculators work using

the present position or cusor position to make the calculations.Make certain

the unit has locked onto the satellites and is showing the correct position

before using the calculator.

SIMULATOR

A simulator is built into this unit that has several options. You can use

nearly all of the unit’s features - even save and recall waypoints. This is

useful for trip planning.

To use the simulator, press the MENU key, then press

the up or down arrow keys until the “SIMULATOR

SETUP” menu is surrounded by the black box. Now

press the right arrow key. The screen shown at right

appears.

If you simply press the right arrow key, turning the simu-

lator on, the GlobalMap 100 will start from your present

position and follow a track of 355° at 100 miles per

hour.

To change either the track or speed, highlight the one you want to change,

then press the right or left arrow key. When the numbers are correct,

press the EXIT key.

Starting Position

Normally, the starting position for the simulator is your

present position. If you want to change the starting

position, highlight the “SET START WPT” label on the

Simulator Setup menu, then press the right arrow key.

The screen shown at right appears.

You can select any waypoint as the simulator’s starting

point.Select the starting point by pressing the right ar-

row key on the “WPT#” label until the desired starting

waypoint number appears.Now highlight the “SET SIM

START” label and press the right arrow key.The unit returns to the Simu-

lator Setup menu using the specified waypoint as the starting waypoint.

Use Arrow Keys to Steer

This option lets you change both the course and speed

on the screen as the simulator is running. To do this,

highlight the “STEER WITH ARROWS” label on the

Simulator Setup screen, then press the right arrow key.

The screen shown at right appears. Use the up and

down arrow keys to increase or decrease the speed.
