Section 3: Basic Gps Operations; Keyboard - Lowrance GlobalMap 5500C Operation Instructions Manual

This section addresses the unit's most basic GPS operations. The tuto-
rials presented in Sec. 3 follow a chronological order. Sec. 4, Advanced
GPS Operations, will discuss other more advanced functions and utili-
ties. Material in Sec. 4 is arranged in alphabetical order.
Before you turn on the unit and find where you are, it's a good idea to
learn about the different keys, the three Page screens and how they all
work together. BUT, if you just can't wait to get outside, turn to the
one-page Quick Reference on page 37.
NOTE
There is a slight difference in menu structure between the Global-
Map 5500C and GlobalMap 4900M. The differences are minimal,
but some of the screenshots in this manual may not perfectly match
some of your unit's menus. Most notably, the GlobalMap 5500C has
the transparency feature and the GlobalMap 4900M does not.
