CLEANING PROCEDURE FOR THE CP590 SCREEN
Cleaning of the CP590 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.
CAUTION
· The CP590 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 CP590.
· The CP590 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.
· Because we frequently update our software and applications, the pictures shown
through this Owner’s Manual may be slightly different from what you see.

2.0 MOUNTING THE CP590
The CP590 is supplied with hardware for bracket or flush mounting. Below are pictures
showing actual examples of the two types of installation.
BRACKET Mount
FLUSH Mount
2.1 BRACKET MOUNTING
Before installing ensure the area the bracket is mounted to is strong enough to support the
weight of the CP590 especially while under way. After the location is found, attach the
mounting base to the area using the supplied hardware.
2.2 FLUSH MOUNTING
The CP590 is 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 CP590 and there are no
obstructions.
CP590 Page 13
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 jigsaw to be
inserted. Insert and cutout the area on the panel using the jigsaw.
3. Next drill the four holes required to insert the CP590 with the mounting studs.
4. Install the mounting studs on the CP590 and insert into the mounting hole.
5. Attach the CP590 to the mounting location by attaching the supplied hardware to the
mounting studs.

2.3 EXTERNAL GPS ANTENNA MOUNTING
The CP590 is supplied with a external GPS WAAS antenna with 15m (50ft) of routing cable.
This antenna is designed to be mounted on a base, installed on an extension or even flush
mounted.

GPS OVERALL SHAPE
S8002348
Choose a location for the antenna that has a clear view of the sky and is not located within
3ft 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 CP590
has a fix, turn on the Radar to ensure the CP590 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.
Page 14 CP590
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 CP590 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 mount template for the antenna has been included.
3. Apply the mount 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 CP590.
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.

2.4.1 NMEA Connections
The CP590 PWR ACC1 connector is also used to attach NMEA devices* such as AIS
Receivers, digital instruments, Personal Computers, Autopilots and the optional FF525
Black Box Fish Finder.
*NOTE
RS232 not opto-isolated electrical interface.
*NOTE: AIS RECEIVER OPTION
For more information on AIS refer to Section 14.
The CP590 has to be set up to be able to receive NMEA information from the AIS Receiver. The
CP590 reads the AIS NMEA message VMD, type 1, 2, 3 and 5 for AIS Class A and type 18, 19,
24 for AIS Class B. Select the used Port and transmission speed by following the procedure:
1. From the Chart page, press [MENU], move the ShuttlePoint knob to highlight

AIS 38400 and press [ENT] or move the
ShuttlePoint knob to the right.
6. Press [CLR] or move the ShuttlePoint knob to the left until the Chart page is shown.
**NOTE: AUTOPILOT CONNECTION
Care must be taken when connecting the CP590 to an Autopilot. Normally Port3 (Yellow wire) will
be used to connect to an Autopilot input, however older Autopilots may not be able to read the
sentences due to the talker ID that is being used (II Integrated Instrument). If the Autopilot
connections are made to Port3 (Yellow wire) and the Autopilot is not reading the sentences, change
the connections to Port1 (Brown) or Port2 (White) and change the sentences to APA, APB, XTE,
COG and BOD.

A User Point is an object that you can place on the charts to mark a specific point. The CP590
features two types of User Points: Marks and Waypoints.
· Mark can be a stand alone position or be linked to a Route. A Mark is place on the Chart
page using the [MARK] key or by entering in information in the Marks/Waypoints List
page and selecting
NEW MARK.
· Waypoints are always liked to a Route. They are placed on the Chart page using the
[ROUTE] key.
NOTE
The difference betwen a Mark and a Waypoint is
a. when a Route is created using Waypoints and the Route is deleted the Waypoints are also
deleted.
b. if a Route is created using Marks and the Route is deleted the Marks remain.

9.8.0 Route Check
The Route Check function is used after you have created a Route to ensure you and your
vessel will not have problems while navigating. This is done by the CP590 by reviewing the
Route and looking for the following hazards that may effect safe navigation.
· Land Areas
· Shallow Water
· Intertidal Areas (areas emerged at low tide)
· Rocks
· Wrecks
· Obstructions
· Shoreline Constructions
· Fishing Facility
· Dredged Areas
· Diffusers (submarine pipeline)
· Mooring/Warping Facility
· Production Installation (an installation for the exploitation of natural resources)
· Pingos (small conical hills having a large central core of ice formed from the
encroachment of permafrost and the resulting hydrostatic pressure)
· No Data Available (no adequate data coverage)
If any of these alarm conditions is detected, the function returns the list of dangerous objects
and the relative dangerous Route leg, that is drawn with a different color.
· Route legs which were classified as dangerous are displayed in RED. It means that
there is at least one dangerous object in the vicinity of this leg and it has been found.
· Route legs which were classified as safe are displayed in GREEN. It means that the
data was checked on detailed chart levels and no problems were found for all segments
of the leg.
· Route legs for which there was not sufficient data to be checked are displayed in
YELLOW. It means that no problems were found but the data was not sufficient or not
available at all to classify such a leg as safe.
CP590 Page 67
Figure 9.8.0 - Example of dangerous objects found on the chart
To activate this function:
AUTOMATIC CHECK Turns the Route Checking feature On or Off. Turn the Automatic Route Check on after
you have created a new Route, or if you inserted a new Waypoint, deleted, moved or
edited any Waypoint in a saved Route to confirm the Route can be safely navigated.
ROUTE WIDTH Allows you to select the width from the left and right of the Route leg where the CP590
will check to confirm navigation threats. See the picture below. The default for this
selection is 0.04Nm.
DEPTH LIMIT Allows you to select the water depth in the Route width area so the CP590 can check and
confirm underwater threats. It checks if some objects with the depth attribute (like
Shallow Water, Dredged Areas, Diffusers, Obstructions, Pingos, Production Installation
and Wrecks) are above this depth level. Only if the depth attribute is above the depth limit
are they found and considered as dangerous. See the picture below. The default setting
is 10ft.
ACCURACY Defines a segment length into which a leg of the Route is divided in order to execute the
search for dangerous objects with better accuracy. When accuracy is maximal, a
segment length is the shortest. When accuracy is minimal, a segment length is the
longest. Selects among Minimum, Low, Medium, High and Maximum. See the picture
below. The default setting is Medium.
ROUTE CHECK REPORT Shows the list of the dangerous objects found on the charts crossed by the Route.
Figure 9.8.0a - Route Check parameters
NOTE
Although the functionality is called Route Check, it can also be activated when the navigation is set
to a single point (like DSC, MOB, Mark). In the case of checking a single point towards which the
navigation is started, the leg for which the Route Check is executed is defined by the current position
(the leg’s starting point) and the destination point (the leg’s ending point).

The Track function can be setup to lay down a Track for a predetermined time or distance
interval. If you have a fast moving boat you may want to setup the CP590 to record a Track
point every 0.5Nm or if you have a sail boat you may want to setup to lay down a Track point
once ever 1 minute.
NOTE
Please note the Track point memory is 10,000 points. This means for a long journey you may have

13.1 NAVIGATE
The Navigate menu allows customization of the Coordinate System (Loran TD's), Chart
Datum, Chart Orientation Resolution (angle the vessel has to change before the chart is
redrawn) and Static Navigation. See the following table:
Coordinate System : Selections are:
a. TD: Time Difference, based on Loran (see the following Par. 13.1.0)
b. UTM: Universal Transverse Mercator Grid
c. ddd mm.mmm:Degrees Minutes and Thousands of Minutes
d. ddd mm.mm: Degrees Minutes and Hundredths of Minutes
e. ddd mm.ss: Degrees Minutes and Seconds
Chart Datum : Allows selection of Chart Datums. The default Datum is WGS84 as C-MAP B
Y JEPPESEN
cartography has been compiled using the WGS84 Datum. A datum is a mathematical
model of the Earth which approximates the shape of the Earth, and enables calculations
such as position and area to be carried out in a consistent and accurate manner.
Chart Orientation Resolution : Sets the angle the vessel has to change before the chart is redrawn. The default setting
is 30 degrees. Example: if the vessel is heading 000T at a speed of 25kn, the display
will redraw:
a. In Home Mode the GPS Chart Plotter centers the location of the vessel in the center
of the display. To keep the vessel in the center of the display the CP590 will
occasionally redraw.
b. If the vessel changes course greater than 330T or more than 30T the chart will be
redrawn.
Static Navigation : Sets up a threshold for the speed. When the speed received from the positioning device
is under that threshold, the GPS Chart Plotter displays zero.
Stop Navigation on Arrival : When the Destination is reached, the navigation is automatically stopped. You can
decide whether the navigation is automatically stopped or if the user confirmation is
required (Auto Confirmation is the default setting):
a. Auto Confirmation: the Destination is removed on arrival without informing the user.
b. Manual Confirmation: on arrival a window pop-ups to require the user confirmation
to remove the Destination.
13.1.0 Loran TD
The Loran TD selection allows the CP590 to be set up so the user can enter in LORAN TD’s
directly into the CP590. After the TD’s have been entered, and the user changes to ddd
mm.sss (Degrees Minutes and Seconds) the TD’s will be converted to Lat / Lon coordinates.
To use the TD Coordinate System the user must setup the Chain and Pair information of
the TD’s. If you do not know this information, refer to paper charts that show the Chain and
Pair information.
ASF1/2 : Additional Secondary phase Factor (TD Coordinate System)
Correction to TD1/2 values which can be inserted by the user to take in account the
additional signal propagation delay aver a mixed land/seawater path compared to on all-
seawater path. Normally the user does not enter a ASF value. However for experienced
CP590 Page 93
users this function allows entering of signal delay values to fine adjust the calculated
position. The user should enter delay values to fine adjust the position calculated.
Alter : Alternate Solution (TD Coordinate System)
Parameter selected by the user that is applied in the conversion of geographical coordinates
Lat/Lon to TD values. To be used if the position displayed is roughly not correct.
13.2 COMPASS
The CP590 computes compass direction from the constellation of GPS satellites. For the
CP590 to compute direction the vessel must be moving through the water unless connected
to an optional Flux Gate Compass sensor. The Compass menu allows the CP590 to
customize the following selections:
Bearings : Selects between True and Magnetic. When Magnetic Bearings is enabled, the CP590 applies the selected
Magnetic Variation (Auto or Manual, see next paragraph) to compute Magnetic Bearing.
Variation : Allows the user to select Auto or Manual. When Auto mode is selected the CP590 computes the offset
by the current GPS fixed location. Manual mode allows the user to enter in a Magnetic Variation that is
applied in the True conversion.
Calibration : Allows a user to enter in the offset for areas that the vessel may cruise instead of entering in a manual offset
for one location. This offset is useful for cruising vessels or vessels that travel internationally often.
Figure 13.2 - Compass Table
13.3 ALARMS
The Alarms menu is used to select and setup audible and visual Alarms. Available alarms
are Arrival, XTE, Depth, Anchor and Grounding Alarm.
Arrival Alarm
1
: Alerts when the vessel is approaching single destination point or when arriving at a leg in
a Route. Available selections: 0.00 to 9.99Nm.
XTE Alarm
1
: Alerts when the vessel is deviating from a defined course. Available selections: 0.00 to
9.99Nm.
Depth Alarm
1
: Alerts when the received depth Value is lower than the selected value. Available selections:
0000 to 3000ft.
Anchor Alarm
1
: Alerts when the ships moves off a selected locations by a selected distance. Available
selections: 0.00 to 9.99Nm.
Audible Alarm : Enables or disables the alarm beep.
Grounding Alarm
2
: Looks ahead of the vessels heading to see if a potential danger exists. When the Grounding
Alarm is enabled the CP590 will draw a triangle in front of the vessel on the Chart page
showing the area that is being searched as shown below. The depth and range (distance)
of the area the CP590 looks ahead for a shallow area can be set using this function.
Grounding Alarm Range: Allows setting the distance of the grounding alarm zone (the length of the sector to be
detected) among the 0.25, 0.5, 1.0 Nm selections. When a depth or any of the searched objects
is fond in the scanned area, a tick marker is printed on the relative box in the Grounding Alarm
Report page to identify which dangerous objects have been currently detected.
Grounding Alarm Report: Allows displaying a report of the dangerous objects currently detected.
NOTE
1
Please note that the alarm can be activated only if the CP590 is receiving a Fix position or
Simulation mode is activated. Otherwise an error beep is returned and the Alarm value is kept to
Off.
Page 94 CP590
NOTES
2
The Grounding Alarm function is availabl only if a NT
+
/MAX C-CARD is inserted. It also affects the
screen redraw speed so we suggest to disable it when not used.
When any of the objects checked are found for the first time, the CP590 shows a pop up window
to alert the user of the possible danger. The name of each new dangerous object found is reported
in the warning window. In the Grounding Alarm Report page the relative item has a tick marker next
to it, to identify the dangerous object currently detected. If in the next search cycle the same objects
are found again, the alarm window will not be shown. Instead, if in the next searches the objects
found before are no longer detected, their relevant item in the Grounding Alarm Report page is
cleared (note that in this case, if the same object type is found again later, the Alarm will be shown).
The CP590 shows an icon on the charts that identifies when a Grounding Alarm is detected.
Figure 13.3 - Grounding Alarm
13.4 SIMULATION
The built-in Simulator function allows you to become proficient in the use of the CP590. No
current position fix is required because the CP590 simulates position data internally.

14. AIS
AIS is an Automatic Identification System. It has been introduced to improve the safety of
navigation by assisting in the efficient operation of ship-to-ship location reporting and VTS
applications. The system should enable operators to obtain information from the ship
automatically, requiring a minimum of involvement of ship’s personnel, and should have a high
level of availability. AIS transponders installed on IMO vessels use VHF frequencies to:
· Transmit details of their own vessel
· Receive details from other vessels or navigation aids within VHF range.
CP590 is able to display AIS Target (for collision avoidance) on the Chart page and AIS list
pages when connected to a AIS Receiver (GX2100 or GX2150 STANDARD HORIZON
VHF/AIS transceiver) or transponders which output NMEA-0183 VDM sentence at 38400
or 4800 baud. The CP590 is able to show targets from both Class A (commercial) and Class
B targets.
14.0 SYSTEM DEFINITIONS
· Target: vessel equipped with AIS. Information about the Targets is being received by
AIS Receiver and displayed on the screen.
· CPA (Closest Point of Approach): the closest distance that will be achieved between
your vessel and the tracked Target, based on your vessel’s speed and direction and
the Target’s speed and direction.
· CPA Limit: distance from your vessel that a Target may reach before a Target is
deemed a threat.
· CPA Alarm: occurs if CPA is less or equal to CPA Limit. This test is done for active
Targets only.
· TCPA (Time to Closest Point of Approach): time remaining until the CPA will occur.
· TCPA Limit: time remaining before the CPA is reached.
· TCPA Alarm: occurs if TCPA is less or equal to TCPA Limit. This test is done for active
Targets only and if CPA value is less or equal to CPA Limit.
· Radio Call Sign: international call sign assigned to vessel, often used on voice radio.
· Name: name of ship, 20 characters.
· MMSI (Maritime Mobile Service Identity) number: a unique 9 digit number that is
assigned to a DSC radio station. It primarily registers the boat information in the U.S.
Coast Guard’s national distress database for use in emergency situations.
· Active Target: Target located within the Activation Range. Active Targets are
represented by oriented triangle with COG and Heading vectors. Rate of turn may
also be displayed.
· Dangerous Target: Target detected by CPA or TCPA Alarm. Dangerous Targets are
Active Targets by definition. For better visibility Dangerous Target symbol is flashing.
· Sleeping Target: Target located outside the Activation Range. Sleeping Targets are
represented by a small oriented triangle.
· Lost Target: when the AIS info is not received from that vessel for 3.5 minutes. The
presentation will be a flashing black triangle with a cross through.
· Activation Range: range around your boat where Targets become active. AIS Targets
become active within this range. Activation Range should be greater than CPA Limit
by definition.
CP590 Page 97
NOTE
A Target is removed from the screen if data is not received for 10 minutes.
The maximum number of tracked Class A or B targets is 200.
This information is updated every 3 seconds to 6 minutes depending on speed and rate of turn,
enabling the track of the vessels in range to be plotted.

17. TROUBLESHOOTING
The CP590 does not turn On. The voltage or the polarity may not be correct. Make sure
that the correct voltage (10-35 volt dc) is present. Check also that the polarity is correct.
The CP590 does not get a GPS fix. The external WAAS GPS Antenna may not be in a open
sky position or the antenna cable may not be properly connected. Make sure that no metal
obstacle (solar panel about the CP590) is placed around the CP590 (or external antenna
when connected) acting as a shield for the antenna and disconnect and connect again the
antenna cable to the CP590. If, after 15 minutes, the CP590 does not get the fix, turn it Off
and On again.
The CP590 does not turn Off. The CP590 may be in an unpredictable status. If, after
pressing [PWR] (for at least 3 seconds) the CP590 does not turn Off, turn Off the voltage.
The CP590 screen becomes very dark after a long exposure to direct sunlight. The
internal temperature is very high. Protect the CP590 from direct sunlight.
The CP590 does not respond to any command. The CP590 may be in an unpredictable
status. Try to turn Off, and then turn On. If the problem persists, reset the RAM or remove
power from the battery.
The location of my fix is not shown correctly on the Chart page. Please report to C-MAP
USA (800/424-2627) the Latitude & Longitude of your vessels position, the position where
you think your vessels should be and details of the cartography such as “Compilation scale”,
“Notice to mariners” and “Horizontal datum” (which can be seen by selecting the Chart page,
press [INFO], move the ShuttlePoint knob to
Data Source and press [ENT]).
After storing the CP590 over the winter, It takes a long time to receive a fix.
This is usually caused by the internal rechargeable memory battery from becoming low
which could cause the Internal RAM memory to become corrupted. To solve this issue,
perform a RAM Clear (refer to Chapter 18).
NOTE
After performing a RAM Clear all Marks, Routes and tracks will be erased. To backup these points
refer to Chapter 11 for details.

Change Parameters
To change the parameters of the serial interface. This menu allows to select the Port (Signal
Source) between Port1, Port2, Port3, Port4, Port5; the Baud Rate between 300, 1200,
2400, 4800, 9600, 38400, 115200; the Data Bits (Word Length) between 7 or 8, the Parity
between even, odd or none, the Stop Bits between 1 or 2. Default settings are: Port =
PORT2, Baud Rate = 4800, Data Bits = 8, Parity = none, Stop Bits = 1.
Input Data Display
To allow the CP590 to act as a computer terminal and display the incoming data exactly as
it is received.
If the data displayed on the screen is unrecognizable, you may have selected the wrong
input parameters for your particular receiver, for example, Baud Rate 9600 instead of Baud
Rate 4800. Check your receiver manual to be sure that you have selected the proper
parameter. If the screen is blank, you may have a broken connection, and no data is being
received or you may have connected the device to the other input port.
Use [ZOOM IN] to stop (or continue after pause) data displaying, [ENT] to show data in hex
or ASCII mode (normal or small) and [CLR] to exit.
Loop-Back Test
This is a special test done during the production phase to check the serial ports integrity.
This function is only required by STANDARD HORIZON.

DPT (Depth): Shows the water depth when the optional FF525 50/200kHz Black Box Fish
Finder or digital Depth Sounder is connected.
DRAUGHT: Depth of water the vessel draws. The definition of draught (or draft) of a ship’s
hull is the vertical distance between the waterline and the bottom of the hull (keel).
Draught determines the minimum depth of water a ship or boat can safely navigate. On
the Celestial page the “draught” window shows the height of the tidal water during a 24hr
period of time. This height is dependant on the time of day selected using the
ShuttlePoint knob.
DSC (Digital Selective Calling): Semi-automated method of establishing a VHF Radio Call.
DSC had also been designated as part of the Global Maritime Distress and Safety
System (GMDSS). It is planned that DSC will eventually replace aural watches on
distress frequencies and will be used to announce routine and urgent maritime safety
information broadcasts.
DST (Distance): The distance from your current position to a Destination point.
ETA: Estimated Time of Arrival
GPS Constellation: The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space-based radio-
navigation system consisting of a constellation of satellites and a network of ground
stations used for monitoring and control. A minimum of 24 GPS satellites orbit the Earth
at an altitude of approximately 11,000 miles providing users with accurate information
on position, velocity and time anywhere in the world and in all weather conditions.
GPS2D: The GPS is receiving at least 2 valid satellites.
GPS3D: The GPS is receiving at least 3 valid satellites.
HDG (Heading): Shows heading from a external Flux Gate Compass when connected.
Page 116 CP590
HDOP/VDOP (Horizontal/Vertical Dilution of Precision): Parameter indicating the precision
of the positioning system (GPS). The smaller the HDOP/VDOP value, the more
accurately the position fix is provided.
HEIGHT: The current Tide Height referred to the vertical cursor.
HEIGHT WATER: The maximum level of the Tide Height in 24 hours.
LOW WATER: The minimum level of the Tide Height in 24 hours.
PINGO: Mound of earth-covered ice found in the Arctic and subarctic that can reach up to
70m (230ft) in height and up to 600m (2.000ft) in diameter.
Position Request: Marine DSC VHF Function of transmitting a GPS position to another
Marine DSC VHF. When CP590 is connected to STANDARD HORIZON GPS the
position of another vessel is shown on the Chart page.
SOG (Speed Over Ground): The speed your vessel is travelling at.
SPD (Speed): Shows the Speed Thru the Water when a Digital Speed Log is connected.
STR (Steer): Heading to steer to destination Waypoint.
TIME: Shows the current time received by the GPS.
TLOG (Trip Log): Shows the distance the vessel has travelled since the Trip Log was reset.
TWD (True Wind Direction): Shows the True Wind Direction when an external wind
instrument with NMEA is connected.
TWS (True Wind Speed): Shows the True Wind Speed when an external wind instrument
with NMEA is connected.
TTG (Time To Go): Shows time to go to reach a Destination point.
UNITS
Nm Nautical Mile (1Nm = 1.15SM or 1.85km)
SM Statute Mile (1SM = 0.87Nm or 1.61km)
km kilometer (1km = 0.62SM or 0.54Nm)
ft feet (1ft = 0.167ftm or 0.305m)
ftm Fathom (1ftm = 6ft or 1.83m)
m meters (1m = 3.28ft or 0.55ftm)
kn knots (1kn = 1.15mph or 1.85km/h)
mph miles per hour (1mph = 0.87kn or 1.61km/h)
km/h kilometer per hour (1km/h = 0.54kn or 0.62mph)
VMG: It is the destination closing Velocity. The VMG is calculated using the current speed
of the vessel (SOG) and the difference between the current vessel course and the
bearing to the Destination.
WAAS 2D/3D: The GPS is receiving a 2D or 3D position and the correction from the WAAS
satellite. WAAS consists of approximately 25 ground reference stations positioned
across the United States that monitor GPS satellite data. Two master stations, located
on either coast, collect data from the reference stations and create a GPS correction
message. This correction accounts for GPS satellite orbit and clock drift plus signal
delays caused by the atmosphere and ionosphere. The corrected differential message
is then broadcast through one of two geostationary satellites, or satellites with a fixed
position over the equator. The information is compatible with the basic GPS signal
structure, which means any WAAS enabled GPS receiver can read the signal.
W-T (Water Temperature): Shows the sea water temperature when the FF525 50/200kHz
Black Box Fish Finder or a digital Speed Log/Temp instrument with NMEA is connected.
XTE (Cross Track Error): The distance your vessel is off course (left or right) to a Destination point.

PLEASE NOTE
The following "Limited Warranty" is for customers that have purchased products in
the United States. For Limited Warranty details outside the United States, contact the
dealer in your country.
S T A N D A R D H O R I Z O N L I M I T E D W A R R A N T Y
STANDARD HORIZON (the Marine Division of YAESU USA) warrants, to the original purchaser
only, each new Marine Product ("Product") manufactured and/or supplied by STANDARD HORIZON
against defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and service for a period of 3 years
from the date of purchase.
In the event of a defect, malfunction or failure of the Product during the warranty period, STANDARD
HORIZON's liability for any breach of contract or any breach of express or implied warranties in
connection with the sale of Products shall be limited solely to repair or replacement, at its option,
of the Product or part(s) therein which, upon examination by STANDARD HORIZON, appear to be
defective or not up to factory specifications. STANDARD HORIZON may, at its option, repair or
replace parts or subassemblies with new or reconditioned parts and subassemblies.
To receive warranty service, the purchaser must deliver the Product, transportation and Insurance
prepaid, to STANDARD HORIZON (Marine Division of YAESU USA) - Attention Factory Service -
6125 Phyllis Drive- Cypress, CA 90630, include proof of purchase indicating model, serial number
and date of purchase.
STANDARD HORIZON will not warrant installation, maintenance or service of the Products. In all
instances, STANDARD HORIZON's liability for damages shall not exceed the purchase price of the
defective Product. This warranty only extends to Products sold within the 50 States of the United
Stated of America and the District of Columbia.
STANDARD HORIZON will pay all labor and replacement parts charges incurred in providing the
warranty repair service except where purchaser abuse or other qualifying exceptions exist. The
purchaser must pay any transportation expenses incurred in returning the Product to STANDARD
HORIZON for service.
This limited warranty does not extend to any Product which has been subjected to misuse, neglect,
accident, incorrect wiring by anyone other than STANDARD HORIZON, improper installation, or
subjected to use in violation of instructions furnished by STANDARD HORIZON, nor does this
warranty extend to Products on which the serial number has been removed, defaced, or changed.
STANDARD HORIZON cannot be responsible in any way for ancillary equipment not furnished by
STANDARD HORIZON which is attached to or used in connection with Products, or for the
operation of the Product with any ancillary equipment, and all such equipment is expressly excluded
from this warranty. STANDARD HORIZON disclaims liability for range, coverage, or operation of
the Product and ancillary equipment as a whole under this warranty.
STANDARD HORIZON reserves the right to make changes or improvements in Products, during
subsequent production, without incurring the obligation to install such changes or improvements
on previously manufactured Products. The implied warranties which the law imposes on the sale
of this Product are expressly LIMITED, in duration, to the time period specified above. STANDARD
HORIZON shall not be liable under any circumstances for consequential damages resulting from
the use and operation of this Product, or from the breach of this LIMITED WARRANTY, any implied
warranties, or any contract with STANDARD HORIZON. IN CONNECTION WITH THE SALE OF
ITS PRODUCTS, STANDARD HORIZON MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED
AS TO THE MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR OTHE-
RWISE, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or
limitation on how an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation or exclusions may not apply. This
warranty gives specific legal right, and there may be other right which may vary from state to state.
