CAUTION  
- The GPS Chart Plotter is designed for maritime use. To avoid water intrusion  
ensure the C-MAP BY JEPPESEN C-CARD door is completely closed.  
- Extensive exposure to heat may result in damage to the GPS Chart Plotter.  
- The GPS Chart Plotter 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.  
CLEANING PROCEDURE FOR THE GPS CHART PLOTTER SCREEN  
Cleaning of the chart plotter screen is a very important operation and must be done  
carefully. Since the surface is covered by a antireflective coating, the procedure for  
cleaningallthesurfacescanbeperformedusingthefollowingprocedure:Youneed  
a tissue or lens tissue and a cleaning spray (Windex) containing Isopropanol (a  
normal spray cleaner sold for the PC screen, for example PolaClear by Polaroid).  
Fold the tissue or lens tissue into a triangular shape, moisten the tip and use the  
index finger behind a corner to move the tissue across the surface, in overlapping  
side to side strokes. If the tissue 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 tissue won’t glide easily, and  
may damage the surface.

MOUNTING THE OPTIONAL EXTERNAL GPS ANTENNA  
An external WAAS GPS antenna is available when the CPF180i or CPF300i is flush  
mounted or mounted in an area where satellite reception is not possible with the internal  
antenna.This antenna is designed to be mounted on a base, installed on an extension or  
flush mounted.  
Choose a location for the antenna that has a clear view of the sky and is not located within  
3 FT of Radar or other transmitting antennas. Ensure there are no major obstructions or  
fixturesintheimmediateproximitytotheantenna. Theantennareliesondirect“lineofsight”  
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 GPS  
Chart Plotter has a fix, turn on the Radar to ensure the GPS Chart Plotter 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. Due to the manufacturing process of these mounting brackets, the  
antenna may not tighten all the way down onto all the threads. This is no concern however  
as the antenna must be tightened until the antenna stops rotating.  
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.  
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 GPS Chart Plotter 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 mounting template for the antenna has been included.  
3. Apply the mounting template sticker to the area that was verified for GPS reception.  
4. Then, drill out the 0.31” (8mm) and 0.13” (3.2mm) holes, and remove the template.  
5. Insert the cable into the 0.31” (8mm) hole and route to the GPS Chart Plotter.  
6. Apply a small amount or RTV to the under side 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.

GPS POSITION ON A VHF RADIO  
STANDARD HORIZON has pioneered Digital Selective Calling (DSC) on VHF radios.  
Advancements in DSC have made it possible to show the coordinates of a vessel that has  
transmitted a DSC Distress Call or even Poll the location of another vessel and show the  
position of that vessel on the display of STANDARD HORIZON VHFs.  
STANDARD HORIZON has taken this feature one step further, if the GPS Chart Plotters  
are connected to a STANDARD HORIZON DSC capable VHF, the vessel in Distress or the  
polledpositionofthevesselisshownonthedisplayoftheGPSChartPlotter, makingiteasy  
to navigate to the location of the vessel. This is a great feature that could save someone’s  
life or for anyone wanting to know the position of another vessel.

believes to be reliable) and then merged to the electronic charts in order to provide more  
information useful for the navigation. VAD object can be any cartographic objects and it can be  
distinguished from the official-chart-objects from the Quick Info. A dedicated icon is shown on the  
Quick Info window to indicate that the object queried is a VAD. The same icon is also shown on  
the Full Info page and in addition the extended text Value Added Data is shown on the details of  
the VAD object.  
Chart Lock (*)  
: Turns the chart function On/Off. When Chart Lock is On, the available zoom scales are only the  
ones containing cartographic data. Instead when Chart Lock is Off, it is possible to zoom down  
into zoom scales not covered by cartographic data after the last available zoom scale covered by  
cartographic data. The DSI (Data Safety Indicator) window, if present, will show “NO CHART”,  
when an empty level is entered in the location of map expansion mode.  
Mixing Levels

Example 1  
You anchor in 15 feet of water (under your keel) at a time of day where the water is the  
highest (High Water). Let’s say the High Water window shows 5ft and the Low Water  
window shows 1 foot this means the water under your vessel over a 24 hour period of time  
could fall 4 feet (High Water - Low Water). With your vessel in 15 feet of water and with a  
maximum water change of 4 feet during the day, the worst case situation there will be 11  
feet of water under your vessel.

12.9 VHF DIGITAL SELECTIVE CALLING  
Digital Selective Calling is a semi-automated method of establishing a VHF radio call. DSC  
had also been designated as part of the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System.  
CPF180i and CPF300i  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Page 89  
This new system allow mariners to instantly send a distress call with GPS position (when  
connected to the transceiver) to the US Coast Guard and other vessels within range of the  
transmission. DSC will also allow mariners to initiate POSITION Request, POSITION Send  
calls to or from another vessel equipped with a DSC transceiver.  
STANDARD HORIZON VHF Marine Radios with Digital Selective Calling are able to be  
interfaced with the GPS Chart Plotter which feeds GPS data to the VHF and listens for DSC  
callsfromtheVHF.ByconnectingafewwiresbetweentheSTANDARDHORIZONVHFand  
the GPS Chart Plotter it will receive:  
1. a vessel that has transmitted a DSC Distress call  
2. a vessel that has transmitted a DSC Position Send Call  
3. The position of a vessel that transmitted a DSC Position Request Call  
12.9.0 Interfacing  
To take advantage of these functions the GPS Chart Plotter must be interfaced (wired) to  
a STANDARD HORIZON or compatible DSC VHF.  
Figure13.9.0 - Interfacing to VHF Radio  
For additional information refer to Par. 2.4 Connections.  
12.9.1 DSC Distress Call  
During a Distress situation, a vessel that is equipped with a DSC VHF and connected to a  
GPS, has the capability to transmit a DSC Distress Call with GPS Position.  
When the STANDARD HORIZON VHF receives a DSC Distress Call, DSC/Position  
information of the vessel in Distress is transferred to the GPS Chart Plotter. The GPS Chart  
Plotter Logs the Distress call into the DSC DISTRESS LOG and also prompts the user to  
see the location of the Vessel in Distress and also allows for easy navigation to the vessel.  
12.9.2 Position Request  
STANDARD HORIZON VHF radios can transmit a DSC call to other equipped Vessels with  
a DSC VHF or request this radio transmit the GPS position. When this position is received  
theSTANDARDHORIZONVHFradiosendstheinformationtotheGPSChartPlotterwhich  
displays the GPS position of the vessel on the Chart page. This is a great feature for anyone  
wanting to know the position of another vessel for example you buddy that is catching fish,  
or finding the location of a person you are cruising with.

a. In Home mode the GPSChartPlotter centers the location of the vessel in the center  
of the display. To keep the vessel in the center of the display the GPS Chart Plotter  
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  
isunderthatthreshold,theGPSChartPlotterdisplayszero.Thedefaultsettingis0.9Kts.  
13.1.0 Loran TD  
The Loran TD selection allows the GPS Chart Plotter to be set up so the user can enter in  
LORAN TD’s directly into the GPS Chart Plotter. 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-  
seawaterpath. Normally the user does not enter a ASF value. However for experienced  
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 GPS Chart Plotter computes compass direction from the constellation of GPS  
Satellites. For the GPS Chart Plotter to compute direction the vessel must be moving  
through the water. This menu allows the GPS Chart Plotter to customize the following  
selections:  
Bearings : Selects between True and Magnetic. When Magnetic bearings is enabled, the GPS Chart Plotter applies  
the selected Magnetic Variation (Auto or Manual, see next paragraph) to compute True bearing.  
Variation : Allows the user to select Auto or Manual. When Auto mode is selected the GPS Chart Plotter 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 : This function 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.

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,requiringaminimumofinvolvementofship’spersonnel,andshouldhaveahigh  
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.  
Information being transmitted from vessels over 300 tons that, due to recent worldwide  
legislation, are required to fit Class “A” AIS transponders.  
Connecting to the GPS Chart Plotter an AIS receiver (please contact your local dealer), will  
display vessels with AIS transponder within VHF range on screen giving the skipper or  
navigator a visual interpretation of the data of nearby vessels. This improves safety, and  
specifically for collision avoidance reasons.  
14.0 AIS SYSTEM DEFINITIONS  
· Target:ItisavesselequippedwithAIS. Informationaboutthetargetsisbeingreceived  
by AIS Receiver and displayed on the screen.  
· CPA : Closest Point of Approach is 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.  
· CPALimit:Thisisthedistancefromyourvesselthatatargetmayreachbeforeatarget  
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 is the time remaining until the CPA will occur.  
· TCPA Limit: This is the time remaining before the CPA is reached.  
· TCPA Alarm:OccursifTCPAislessorequaltoTCPALimit. Thistestisdoneforactive

· 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.  
· MMSI 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.  
· ActiveTarget:TargetlocatedwithintheActivationRange.Activetargetisrepresented

17. FISH FINDER  
The Fish Finder consists of a high power transmitter, sensitive receiver and a transducer.  
The Fish Finder sends an electrical pulse to the transducer, which contains an element that  
converts the pulse into acoustic (sound) waves, which is sent through the water. As this  
wave travels from the transducer to the bottom, it may strike fish, structures, thermalclines  
(temperature changes in the water). When the wave strikes an object(s) a certain amount  
of the wave is reflected back to the transducer depending on the composition and shape of  
the object. When the reflected wave is returned to the transducer it is converted into a  
voltage and is amplified by the receiver, processed and sent to the display. The speed of  
sound in water is roughly 4800 Ft/sec, so the time lapse between the transmitted signal and  
the received echo can be measured and the distance to the object determined.

17.1.1 Understanding the Fish Finder display  
Figure 17.1.1 - The Fish Finder display  
Fishes  
Fishes are represented as arcs because of the cone angle of the transducer. In fact as  
the boat passes over the fish the leading edge of the cone strikes the fish, causing a  
display pixel to be turned on. As the boat passes over the fish, the distance to the fish  
decreases turning each pixel on at a shallower depth on the display. When the boat is  
directly over the fish, the first half of the arch is formed and since the fish is closer to  
the boat, the signal is stronger and the arch is thicker. As the boat moves away from  
the fish, the distance increases and the pixels appear at progressively deeper depths  
forming the remaining half of the arch.  
Thermoclines  
Are the zones where two layers of different water temperatures meet. The greater the  
temperature differential, the denser the thermocline shows on the screen. Thermo-  
clinesarerepresentedashorizontalstripesofnoise. Theyareveryimportantforfishing  
since often many species of game fish like to suspend in, just above, or just below the  
thermoclines.  
White Line  
The White Line shows the difference between hard, soft bottoms and even distinguish-  
es between fishes and structures located near the bottom. In this way it is easier to tell  
the difference between a hard and soft bottom and even to distinguish fishes and  
structures located nearby the bottom. For example, a soft, muddy or weedy bottom  
returnsaweakerechothatisshownwithanarrowwhitelinewhileahardbottomreturns  
a strong echo that causes a wide white bottom line.  
Surface Clutter  
Appears like noise at the top of the screen extending many feet below the surface. It’s  
caused by many things, including air bubbles, bait fish, plankton and algae.  
Structures  
Generally, the term “structure” is used to identify objects like wrecks and weeds rising  
from the bottom.  
Bottom Echo Profile  
Bottom profile recorded by the Fish Finder. When the echo sounder is set in Auto  
Range mode, the bottom is kept in the lower half in the display.

The Fish Finder determines automatically the Range as to keep the bottom visible in the  
lower bottom of the screen. In this mode, Shift is always set to 0.  
17.8.0.2  
Bottom Lock  
The Bottom Lock function keeps the screen display locked onto a certain Range around the  
bottom. Let’s say the bottom is 400Ft and the Bottom Lock Range is set to display 30Ft  
around the bottom, the screen (instead of displaying from 0Ft to e.g. 450Ft) will display only  
a Range of 30Ft around the bottom, e.g. from 380Ft to 410Ft.  
17.8.1 Depth  
Moves the display from showing the bottom to the depth value entered.  
17.8.2 Shift  
Shifts the display from the bottom of the transducer to the depth value entered.  
Example: Your vessel is in about 57Ft of water, however there is fish suspended in 35Ft  
of water. You want to display to 10Ft area around the fish. Shift would be set to  
25Ft and Depth would be set to 35Ft shown in example below.

When the Gain Mode option is set to Manual, the Gain can be manually adjusted. When switching  
from Automatic to Manual Mode, the Gain + Offset value is copied into the Manual Gain setting of  
the receiver.  
17.10.1  
STC (Sensitivity Time Control)  
The purpose of this selection is to filter surface noise in the water.  
TheSTCfunctionsreducesoreliminatesSurfaceCluttersignalsbychangingtheSensitivity  
of the receiver, decreasing it near the surface and gradually increasing it as the depth  
increases. Its default value is SHORT for the 200kHz frequency and MID for the 50KHz  
frequency. Such values are good in most conditions. However when navigating in very  
shallow waters it may be necessary to switch it to OFF, while in very deep waters with a lot  
of Surface Clutter it may be better to increase it to MID or LONG.  
NOTE  
In some situations it may be necessary to adjust the STC so the sounder can read through the  
surface noise and show the bottom. One indication that the STC needs to be changed is when the  
display intermittently changes the depth from the correct depth to a very shallow depth.  
Figure 17.10.1 - STC - Surface Clutter  
The STC can be changed from Short, Mid, Long and Custom.  
17.10.1.0  
STC Length  
This is the depth range which the STC operates. In custom mode it can be varied from 0Ft  
to 1000Ft (60Ft or 255Ft on previous software versions). In preset mode it’s value is  
reported in the following table (See Par. 17.10.1.2).  
17.10.1.1  
STC Strength  
It is the starting attenuation value of the STC. It acts by attenuating the Gain of the given  
percentage value. In custom mode it can be varied from 0% to 100%. The STC effect is  
maximum near the surface, to eliminate the Surface Clutter and it progressively diminishes  
to 0 at the selected STC depth.

If in VERY SHALLOW WATER the Fish Finder display is showing a bottom or digital  
readout deeper than the actual depth this situation may occur if STC is set to LONG or  
MID when the bottom is shallow. This issue may be resolved by adjusting the STC value  
to SHORT or even to OFF in very shallow waters.  
If in DEEP WATER the Fish Finder display is showing a very shallow bottom or digital  
readout this may happen because in conditions of strong Surface Clutter the Fish Finder  
may erroneously look on to the Surface Clutter. To solve this situation try to increase the  
STC to LONG or to CUSTOM increasing the STC length and strength.  
If in DEEP WATER the Fish Finder doesn’t see the bottom, this may happen because the  
bottom is out of range or is very near to the maximum depth that can be tracked by the  
Fish Finder. In the latter case this may happen if the bottom composition is soft as mud,  
if the sea conditions are bad, there are thermoclines or the water is full of suspended  
materials (silt, plankton). All these factors may affect considerably the performance of the  
Fish Finder to be able to see the bottom. In these cases change the RANGE MODE from  
AUTO to MANUAL Range and manually adjust the depth range until the bottom echo  
becomes visible on the Fish Finder display.  
17.10.2  
Surface Noise Filter  
An automatic filter that attempts to dynamically remove Surface Clutter that causes the  
screen to be filled up with strong return echoes just below the surface. It may seem that  
the same functionality could be archived using on the STC control however there is main  
difference between such control in fact the STC control impacts the capability to detect  
and track the bottom and is not designed to cancel completely the surface noise, on the  
other side the Surface Noise Filter attempts to cancel completely the surface noise but it  
doesn’t affect the capability to detect and track the bottom.  
The Surface Noise Filter has 9 settings: OFF, 1, ..., 8. When it is set to OFF the Surface  
Noise it is not cancelled. When it is set to 1 the Surface Noise is cancelled up to a depth  
of 5Ft, increasing the Surface Noise increases the depth in which the Surface Noise is  
cancelled up to a depth of 255Ft when the preset is set to 8, as shown in the Surface Noise

18. TROUBLE SHOOTING  
The GPS Chart Plotter 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 GPS Chart Plotter does not get a valid fix. The GPS WAAS Smart Antenna may not  
be in a open sky position or the antenna cable may not be properly connected. Make sure  
that no metal obstacle is placed around the antenna acting as a shield for the antenna and  
disconnect and connect again the antenna cable to the GPS Chart Plotter. If, after 15  
minutes, the GPS Chart Plotter does not get the fix, turn it Off and On again.  
The GPS Chart Plotter does not turn Off. The GPS Chart Plotter may be in an  
unpredictable status. If, after pressing [PWR] (for at least 3 seconds) the GPS Chart Plotter  
does not turn Off, turn Off the voltage.  
The GPS Chart Plotter screen becomes very dark after a long exposure to direct  
sunlight. Theinternaltemperatureisveryhigh. Controlthecontrast. ProtecttheGPSChart  
Plotter from direct sunlight.  
The GPS Chart Plotter does not respond to any command. The GPS Chart Plotter 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. This is usually caused  
when C-MAP Geo-References a nautical chart. Contact Jeppesen Marine with the Latitude  
& Longitude of your vessels position, the position where you think your vessels should be  
and with details of the cartography areas, which can be seen by selecting the Chart page,  
press [INFO], move the ShuttlePoint knob to Data Source and press [ENT]. Write down  
the “Compilation scale”, “Notice to mariners” and “Horizontal datum”. Next contact C-MAP  
USA at 508/477-8010 and advise the problem.  
After storing the Chart Plotter 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 Section 19).  
NOTE  
AfterperformingaRAMClearallMarks, Routesandtrackswillbeerased. Tobackupthesepoints  
refer to Section 11 for details.

memory can be erased and the default setting restored.  
RAM Clear  
To clear internal memory. If the GPS Chart Plotter exhibits unusual operations, or appears  
to be malfunctioning, it may be possible to correct the problem by clearing RAM.  
This operation will erase all Marks, Routes, stored Track plots and Destinations. It will also  
return all selections (Input Data Format, Autopilot selection, etc.) to original default values.  
To confirm clear RAM press [ENT] again (but if at this time you do not wish to clear RAM  
press [CLR]).  
19.0.1 DIM Menu

To check the C-CARD and its connector.  
Internal Data Base Test  
To test the WorldWideBackground.  
C-CARD Test  
To test the C-CARD. There are the possible situations:  
1. if there is a C-CARD inserted in the slot and there is not a malfunction, the name of the  
C-CARD zone and the message "OK" are shown.  
2. if there is a C-CARD inserted in the slot, but it is a defective C-CARD, the name of the  
C-CARD zone and the message "Faulty" are shown.  
3. if there is not any C-CARD inserted in the slot, the message "not present" is shown.  
4. if there is a User C-CARD inserted in the slot, the message USER C-CARD is shown.  
C-CARD Connector  
Indicates if there is a malfunction in the connector.  
19.0.3 Serial Ports  
If you are having problems receiving data from the position-finding instrument, this test  
should help determine the problem.  
Change Parameters  
Tochangetheparametersoftheserialinterface.ThismenuallowstoselectthePort(Signal  
Source) between PORT 1, PORT 2, PORT 3 (PORT4 and PORT 5 ONLY FOR CPF300I); 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 = PORT 2, Baud Rate = 4800, Data Bits = 8, Parity = none,  
Stop Bits = 1.  
Input Data Display  
To allow the GPS Chart Plotter to act as a computer terminal and display the incoming data  
exactly as it is received.  
If the data displayed on the screen are 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.  
A special connector is required.

WAAS2D/3D–TheGPSisreceivinga2Dor3DpositionandthecorrectionfromtheWAAS  
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.

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 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 Vertex Standard) - Attention Factory Service  
- 10900 Walker Street - 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

This limited warranty does not extend to any Product which has been subjected to misuse, neglect,
