Sam-1 Sonar Access Module; Lowrance Ims And Maplink - Lowrance GlobalMap 2000 Installation And Operation Instructions Manual

SAM SONAR ACCESS MODULE
In order for the GlobalMap 2000 to show sonar data, a sonar access
module (SAM) and transducer must be installed. Follow the installation
instructions included with the sonar access module. Route the cable from
the sonar module to the black connector on the GlobalMap 2000. (Note:
The black sonar connector on the GlobalMap 2000 is covered by a black
plastic cap. Carefully pry this cap off to gain access to the connector.)
Follow the installation instructions included with the transducer and mount
it on the boat. Route its cable to the sonar module and plug it into the black
connector. The sonar module is now ready for use.
LOWRANCE INLAND MAPPING SYSTEM
Until recently, people using inland lakes and rivers were left out of the
electronic mapping market. Lowrance has addressed this market with our
"IMS SmartMap™" series of mapping cartridges that use the MapLink™
to connect to the GlobalMap 2000. All of the contiguous 48 states are
covered by these cartridges, allowing exceptional detail of lakes and rivers.
Also, cities, towns, highways, and roads are shown on these maps. To
order these cartridges, contact your local dealer or LEI Extras at 1-800-
324-0045 (USA only).
MAPLINK™
The GlobalMap 2000 has an internal "background" map that covers almost
the whole world. It shows southern Canada, all of the continental United
States, and Mexico at a higher resolution than other countries. This map
is sufficient for most users, however, Lowrance has an optional cartridge
reader called the Maplink™ that accepts IMS SmartMap™ and C-MAP
cartridges. The SmartMap™ cartridges were created by Lowrance and
have highly detailed maps of the continental United States. The C-MAP
cartridges have small coastal area maps built into them that allows you to
"zoom" in and see much more detail than is available on the built-in map.
The Maplink also has the C-MAP background map built into it, so you have
the option of using it or the Lowrance background map at any time, even
if a C-MAP cartridge isn't plugged into the Maplink.
To install the Maplink, follow the instructions included with it. It can be
mounted on top of the dash, under the dash, or in the dash for a clean,
professional look. Once it's installed, route the cable included with the
Maplink to the small connector on the back of the GlobalMap 2000. If the
supplied cable is too short, an extension cable, model MLXT-12 is
available that is 12 feet long. After connecting the cable, the Maplink is
ready for use. The Maplink receives its power through the connecting
cable, simplifying the installation.
