How Lowrance GPS Works You'll navigate faster and easier if you understand how the GlobalMap 3200 scans the sky to tell you where you are on the earth — and, where you're going. (But if you already have a working understanding of GPS receivers and the GPS navigation system, skip on ahead to Section 2, Installation &... - Page 11 GPS Data Files (file format *.usr) can be shared be- tween Lowrance GPS or sonar/GPS units or even personal computers. This GlobalMap 3200 has one more thing in common with a personal computer. Just as computers have a floppy disk drive for storing and ex- changing files, the unit has a slot for an MMC (MultiMedia Card) or SDC (Secure Digital card) flash memory card.

Page 14: How To Use This Manual: Typographical Conventions
You'll find that using your GPS receiver 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 avail- able, such as a map or chart and a compass. - Page 15 2. Press ↓ to Trail 1| 3. You are asked to wait while it converts the trail into a route. 4. The wait message disappears and the GlobalMap 3200 begins showing navigation information along the trail. Now, begin moving and follow your GlobalMap 3200.

6. Mount the GPS unit. GPS Antenna/Receiver Module Installation The GlobalMap 3200 package includes the LGC-12w GPS module. This device contains the GlobalMap 3200's external antenna and receiver for GPS and WAAS signals. The antenna/receiver module comes with a 25- foot extension cable. -
Page 18: Power Connections
Power Connections The GlobalMap 3200 works from a 12-volt battery system. For the best results, attach the power cable directly to the battery. You can attach the power cable to an accessory or power buss, however you may have problems with electrical interference. -
Page 19: Nmea/Dgps Cable Connections
The most popular DGPS system relies on a grid of ground-based trans- mitters that send correction signals to DGPS receivers. These in turn, connect to the GPS receiver (such as the GlobalMap 3200). Lowrance offers an optional DGPS receiver for your unit. -
Page 20: Mounting The Unit: Bracket, In-Dash Or Portable
NMEA-compatible device. Mounting the Unit: Bracket, In-Dash or Portable You can install the GlobalMap 3200 on the top of a dash with the sup- plied gimbal bracket. It can also be installed in the dash or mounted on a portable power supply. -
Page 21: Bracket Installation
Mount the GlobalMap 3200 in any convenient location, provided there is clearance behind the unit when it's tilted for the best viewing angle. You should also make sure there is enough room behind the GlobalMap 3200 to attach the power and GPS antenna/receiver module cables. (A drawing on the next page shows the dimensions of a gimbal-mounted GlobalMap 3200.) - Page 22 GlobalMap 3200. If you choose to fill in the hole, be sure to position the cables against the rear edge of the hole as you apply the fill material.

In other words, if the EPE shows 50 feet, then the position shown by the GlobalMap 3200 is estimated to be within 50 feet of the actual location. This also gives you an indicator of the fix quality the unit currently has. - Page 32 The navigation screen looks like the one below when you're not navi- gating to a waypoint or following a route or trail. Your position is shown by an arrow in the center of the screen. Your trail history, or path you've just taken, is depicted by the line extending from the arrow. The arrow pointing down at the top of the compass rose indicates the cur- rent track (direction of travel) you are taking.
- Page 33 to the destination. No matter what direction you are steering, the Bearing window shows the compass direction straight to the destina- tion from your location at the moment. Distance shows how far it is to the waypoint you're navigating toward. The Off Course window shows the current cross track error.

- Page 37 can reduce screen clutter and make streets and other map features easier to see by simply turning off the display of POIs you're not watching for. (To see how, check the text on Map Detail Category Selection, page 79. It shows how to use the Map Categories Drawn menu to turn individual POI displays off and on.) Even though their display is turned off, you can still search for POIs and their icons will pop-up when your unit finds them for you.
- Page 38 The following page contains a 12-step quick reference for the most basic GPS operations. If you don't want to carry the manual with you as you practice with the GlobalMap 3200, you might consider photocopying this quick reference page and tucking it into your pocket.

Page 40: Find Your Current Position
If for some reason satellite acquisition takes longer, you may be inside a structure or vehicle or in terrain that is blocking signal reception. To correct this, be sure you are positioned so that the GlobalMap 3200's antenna module has as clear a view of the sky as possible, then turn the unit off and back on again. -
Page 41: Selecting Any Map Item With The Cursor
On most items, a pop-up box will give the name of the selected item. Searching Now that you've seen how the GlobalMap 3200 can find where you are, let's search for something somewhere else.
