Grounding The display unit contains several CPUs. While they are operating, they radiate noise, which can interfere with other radio equipment. Ground the unit as follows to prevent it. • The grounding wire should be 1.25sq or larger. • The grounding wire should be as short as possible. External Equipment The DATA1, DATA2, and DATA3 ports are used to connect an external equipment such as autopilot, remote display, navigation equipment.
The default setting is "manual". Automatic DGPS setup GP-150 can automatically select optimum reference station. If it takes more than five (5) minutes to fix DGPS position at the automatic mode, switch to manual mode. Use the manual mode when an external beacon receiver has no automatic function of station selection.
4. Press to select Auto. 5. Press the NU/CU ENT key. 6. Press the MENU ESC key. Manual DGPS setup Enter frequency and baud rate of station. 1. Press MENU ESC, 9 and 7 to display the WAAS/DGPS SETUP menu. 2.
