ẄẅGoTo a Waypoint, City/Town, Point of Interest, Address, Intersection

Making Travel Easier

or Exit

Your GPS receiver makes travel easier through the following ways:

GoTo a Waypoint Ẅ – This GPS receiver guides you in a straight line to a single point.

GoTo a City/Town Ẅ – This GPS receiver is already programmed with hundreds of cities/towns worldwide and can guide you in a

straight line to a selected city/town.

NOTE: A city/town is much larger than the precise location indicated by the coordinates stored in your GPS receiver. See page 39 for details.

GoTo a Point of Interest, Address, Intersection or Exit ẅ – With optional computer software and an interface cable, this GPS

receiver can be connected to a computer to take advantage of powerful mapping programs and to transfer data back and forth between the

computer and your receiver. POI, addresses, intersections and exits transferred from a computer can be saved as waypoints to be used as

points within routes for navigation purposes or your receiver can guide you in a straight line to a selected POI, address, intersection or exit.

Navigate a Route Ẇ – This GPS receiver gives you the opportunity to select two or more points to create a route. You can then use your

GPS receiver to guide you in a straight line from point to point through your stored route.

ẆNavigate a Route

ẇNavigate a Track

Navigate a Track ẇ – This GPS receiver automatically keeps a record of your progress as you travel and gives you a graphic

representation of a “track log” of the path or track you have taken. You can use the track log to create a track that you can recall for

navigation. The track can be navigated in the forward or the reverse direction of the original travel.

Your GPS receiver is already programmed with a Base Map that includes locations of hundreds of worldwide cities; U.S. state, Canadian provincial

and European country boundaries; U.S. interstate freeways, highways and exits; and land cover (inland bodies of water). By using the data

interface, optional SD memory card and optional mapping software, you can also download maps and points of interest from your computer.

The manual is designed to help you take advantage of these and many other features. We suggest that you begin by reading the “General

Information” and “Instrumentation Information” sections first. If you are not familiar with computer-based satellite navigation technology, these

sections will help you understand the basics.

ẄTrack

ẅWaypoints

Navigation

Your GPS receiver receives signals from Global Positioning System satellites that are in fixed orbits (stationary relative to the ground) around the

earth. By acquiring—or locking onto—the signals from at least 3 satellites, your receiver can use triangulation to precisely determine your

current position, elevation above sea level and bearing (the direction you are traveling). As you travel, the receiver automatically acquires the

strongest satellite signals available at your current location.

Your GPS receiver is already programmed with U.S. state, Canadian provincial and European country boundaries; worldwide cities; U.S.

interstate freeways and highways; and U.S. interstate freeway and highway exits and exit details. With optional mapping software, interface

cable and SD Memory Card (needed for map downloading), you can access a computer mapping database to download additional mapping

information that includes points of interest, local roads and streets, intersections and addresses.

By becoming familiar with the receiver’s basic operating features, you will be able to use its powerful navigational capabilities.

ẇ Exits

ẆCities

Tracks Ẅ

Your GPS receiver automatically keeps a record of your travel, called a track. The receiver shows you a map-like picture of your track. You can

create and store up to 10 different tracks. Each track can be recalled and used for navigation as the receiver shows you how to retrace the track

again (either forward or in the reverse direction), how far off course you are in relationship to the track and information such as your current

speed or distance to destination in your track navigation. When traveling in unfamiliar territory, this is a quick and easy way to make sure you

always know how to get back to your starting point. See page 27 for details and instructions.

Waypoints ẅ

In this manual, you will learn how to mark your current location as a waypoint, save cities, addresses, intersections, points of interests or exits

as waypoints or set the coordinates for a waypoint anywhere in the world. You can create and store up to 500 waypoints. You can have the

receiver show you the direction of travel to an individual waypoint or how to navigate along a series of waypoints in a route. The receiver can

also show you how far off course you are in relationship to the waypoint navigation and information such as your current speed or distance to

the destination in your waypoint navigation. See page 32 for details and instructions.

ẈPoints of Interest

Already stored in your GPS receiver are coordinates for cities throughout the world; U.S. interstate freeways and highways; U.S. interstate

freeway and highway exits and exit details; and continental U.S. state, Canadian provincial and European country boundaries. You can have the

receiver show you the direction of travel to an individual city or exit or select the city or exit as a point to be used to navigate along a series of

points in a route. The receiver can also show you how far off course you are in relationship to the current navigation and information such as

your current speed or distance to the destination in your navigation. See page 39 for “Cities” details and instructions. See page 58 for “Exits”

details and instructions.

Points of Interest, Addresses or Intersections Ẉ ẉ Ẋ

With optional mapping software and interface cable, you can access a computer mapping database to download hundreds of points of interest,

addresses and intersections. You can use these for navigation. You can have the receiver show you the direction of travel to an individual POI,

address or intersection; or use the POI, address or intersection as a point to be used to navigate along a series of points in a route. The receiver

can also show you how far off course you are in relationship to the navigation and information such as your current speed or distance to the

destination in your navigation. See page 44 for “Points of Interest” details and instructions. See page 50 for “Addresses” details and

instructions. See page 54 for “Intersections” details and instructions.

ẊIntersection

ẋRoute

Routes ẋ

A route is a series of points which you choose that can be used in forward or reverse navigation. You can create and store up to 50 separate

routes. As many as 50 points may be stored in each route. Once you have created a route, your GPS receiver will guide you in a straight line

from point to point. As you reach each point, the receiver automatically begins navigating to the next one. The receiver can also show you how

far off course you are in relationship to the route and information such as your current speed or distance to the destination in your route

navigation. See page 63 for details and instructions.

Stored Cities Options

Getting to the Find Screen

Already stored in your GPS receiver are coordinates for hundreds of cities throughout the world. You can search or

sort the Cities List to use individual cities for navigation or a GoTo, see an individual city on the Map Page in

relationship to your current location or save a city as a waypoint.

There are three ways to get to the Find Screen:

NOTE: A city is much larger than the precise location indicated by the coordinates stored in your GPS receiver. The

coordinates assigned to a city correspond to a location somewhere within the city’s limits. These coordinates are

intended only for navigation to the city, and not for finding a specific location such as the downtown, commercial

area or geographic center. A waypoint or point of interest can be used for more precise navigation within a city.

Select “NEW” to create a new series of points or a route. As an option, you

can select the “NAME” field to edit the default name. Select the first blank

row in the “POINTS” field to insert a point. Continue inserting points to create

the new route. See “New Route Option,” page 65 for details and instructions.

A route is a series of points which you choose that can be used

in forward or reverse navigation. You can create and store up to

50 separate routes. As many as 50 points (waypoints, cities,

points of interest, addresses, intersections or exits) may be stored

in each route. Once you have created a route, your GPS receiver

will guide you in a straight line from point to point. As you reach

each point, the receiver automatically begins navigating to the

next one.

To assist in your navigation, your GPS receiver is already

programmed with locations of hundreds of worldwide cities;

U.S. state, Canadian provincial and European country boundaries;

and U.S. interstate freeways, highways and exits. With optional

computer software, interface cable and SD Memory Card (needed

for map downloading), you can access a computer mapping

database to transfer in additional mapping information that

includes points of interest, local roads and streets, intersections

and addresses.

General Information

GPS General Information

GPS Basics

How GPS Works

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space-based radio-

navigation system. It consists of 24 satellites which orbit the earth

at an altitude of approximately 11,000 miles and ground stations.

GPS provides users with accurate information on position, velocity

and time. This is available anywhere in the world and in most

weather conditions.

GPS uses a global network of 24 satellites that transmit radio signals

to earth from high earth orbit. Thankfully for users, The United States

has offered free use of the system to the international community.

Many international user groups have accepted GPS as the core for

their international civil satellite navigation system.

Control Segment

The Control Segment of GPS consists of the Master Control Station,

Monitor Stations and Ground Antennas.

The one master control station, located at Falcon Air Force Base in

Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA is responsible for overall

GPS service provides users with extremely accurate positioning

information anywhere on or near the surface of the earth. To

accomplish this, each of the 24 satellites emits signals to receivers

below. GPS determines location by computing the difference

between the time that a signal is sent and the time it is received.

GPS satellites carry atomic clocks that provide extremely accurate

time information. The time information is placed in the codes

broadcast by the satellite so that a receiver can continuously

determine the time the signal was broadcast. The signal contains

data that your GPS receiver uses to compute the locations of the

satellites and to make other adjustments needed for accurate

positioning. Your GPS receiver uses the time difference between the

time of signal reception and the broadcast time to compute the

distance, from the receiver to the satellite. With information about

the distance to four satellites and the location of each satellite when

the signal was sent, your receiver can compute its own three-

dimensional position: latitude, longitude and altitude. People think of

GPS as having three segments: control, space and user.

management of the remote monitoring and transmission sites. As

the center for support operations, it calculates any position or clock

errors for each individual satellite, based on information received

from the monitor stations. Then it “orders” the appropriate ground

antennas to relay the corrective information back to that satellite.

GPS was initiated by The United States Department of Defense in

1973 to reduce the proliferation of navigation aids. By creating a

robust system that overcame the limitations of many previously

existing navigation systems, GPS became attractive to a broader

spectrum of users. GPS has been successful in classic applications

such as aviation and marine navigation since it was first developed.

Since then, it has become useful for a wide range of people because

its capabilities are accessible using small, affordable equipment.

What was once available only in very expensive equipment, the

Cobra Electronics Corporation brings to you with our high quality line

of affordable handheld GPS receivers.

Five monitor stations are located at Falcon Air Force Base in

Colorado, Hawaii, Ascension Island in the Atlantic Ocean, Diego

Garcia Atoll in the Indian Ocean and Kwajalein Island in the South

Pacific Ocean. Each of the monitor stations checks the exact altitude,

position, speed and overall health of the orbiting satellites. The

control segment uses measurements collected by the monitor stations

to predict each satellite’s orbit and clock. The prediction data is

up-linked, or transmitted, to the satellites for transmission back to

the users. The control segment also ensures that the GPS satellite

orbits and clocks remain as designed. A station can track up to 11

satellites at a time. Each station performs this “check-up” twice a

day, as the satellites complete their journeys around the earth.

Noted variations, such as those caused by the gravity of the moon,

sun and the pressure of solar radiation, are passed along to the

master control station.

clocks are accurate to a billionth of a second or a nanosecond. The

atomic clocks within satellites are so accurate because even an

extremely small inaccuracy would translate into an extremely large

position difference (1/100 of a second inaccuracy translates to a

position difference of 1,860 miles to any GPS receiver.)

Selectivity Availability (SA)

Selectivity Availability (SA) was used by the U.S. Department of

Defense to degrade the accuracy of civilian GPS to within 100 meters

(about 300 feet.) This was discontinued on May 1, 2000. The military

will only use regional degradation when needed in the future.

The last of the three pieces of the control segment of GPS are the

ground antennas. Ground antennas monitor and track the satellites

from horizon to horizon. They also transmit correction information to

individual satellites.

External Components

The exterior of the GPS satellite has a variety of antennas. The

signals generated by the radio transmitter are sent to your GPS

receiver via L-band antennas. Another component of the satellite is

the radio transmitter, which generates the signal. Each of the 24

satellites transmits its own unique code in the signal.

Space Segment

The space segment includes the satellites and the Delta rockets that

launch the satellites from Cape Canaveral in Florida. GPS

satellites fly in circular orbits at an altitude of 10,900 miles

(17,500 km) and with a period of 12 hours. The orbits are tilted to

the earth’s equator by 55 degrees to ensure coverage of the polar

regions. Powered by solar cells, the satellites continuously orient

themselves to point their solar panels toward the sun and their

antenna toward the earth. Each of the 24 satellites, positioned in 6

orbital planes, circles the earth twice a day.

User Segment

You and your GPS receiver are a part of the user segment along

with many other private individuals and military personnel and their

GPS receivers. Military GPS equipment has been integrated into

fighters, bombers, tankers, helicopters, ships, submarines, tanks,

jeeps and soldiers’ equipment. GPS is also used on Space Shuttles.

The satellites are composed of three major subsystems: Solar

Panels, Internal Components and External Components.

Cutting edge satellite navigation technology coupled with your GPS

receiver can help overcome many of the hardships and hazards

associated with recreation. Your GPS receiver allows you to go

practically anywhere with confidence knowing

precisely where you are at all times. With your GPS receiver, you

will be able to accurately record any location and return to that

precise spot time and again, anytime, anywhere.

Solar Panels

Each satellite is equipped with solar array panels. These panels

capture energy from the sun, which provides power for the satellite

throughout its life.

Internal Components

Internal Components are subsystems such as atomic clocks and

radio transmitters. Each satellite contains four atomic clocks. The

Interference/Errors

6.3

Interference / Errors

GPS receivers have the potential for position errors due to interference, primarily from the following sources:

Ionosphere and troposphere delays

Most common error

When satellite lock is lost

Most common error is not having a clear view of the sky, or being

under very cloudy conditions, when a satellite signal may not

be received.

Whenever satellite lock is lost, the

following animation sequence appears on

screen and continues to loop until satellite lock is re-acquired.

The satellite signal slows as it passes through the atmosphere. The

system uses a built-in model that calculates an average – though

not exact – amount of delay.

Number of satellites visible

When GPS is turned Off

Signal multi-path

The more satellites the receiver can see, the better the accuracy.

Buildings, terrain, electronic interference or even dense foliage can

block signal reception, resulting in position errors or possibly no

position reading at all. In general, the clearer the view of the sky is

at your location, the better the reception will be. GPS receivers will

not work indoors, underwater or underground.

Whenever GPS is turned Off, the following animation

sequence occurs and continues to loop until search is

activated by user.

This occurs when the GPS signal is reflected off objects such as tall

buildings before it reaches the receiver. This increases the travel time

of the signal, causing errors.

Also, some data fields appear blank until GPS is turned On and

satellite lock is re-acquired.

Receiver clock errors

The built-in clock can have very slight timing errors.

Due to the errors that might occur, it is recommended that the serious

navigator use a second navigational tool, such as a magnetic compass

or map.

Orbital errors

Also known as ephemeris errors, these are inaccuracies of the

satellite’s reported location.

WAAS, Map Datum, North Reference

6.5

WAAS

Map Datum

North Reference

Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) is a GPS-based navigation

system that provides precision above and beyond what GPS can do

on its own. WAAS was designed to improve the accuracy and ensure

the integrity of information coming from GPS satellites.

Maps and charts are essentially grids created from a starting

reference point called a “datum.” Many maps being used today

were originally created decades ago. Over the years, technology has

allowed us to improve our surveying skills and create more accurate

maps. However, there is still a need to adapt GPS receivers to use

with older maps.

The vertical grid lines on any map can be aligned in one of three

different ways.

“True North” means that the vertical lines are aligned with the

geographic north pole. This is the most common method of

orienting maps.

WAAS is a network of 25 ground reference stations that cover the

entire U.S. plus parts of Canada and Mexico. Implemented by the

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for aviation users, these reference

stations are located at precisely surveyed spots and compare GPS

distance measurements to known values. When the WAAS signal is

available, WAAS-capable receivers typically have a much higher

accuracy than non-WAAS receivers.

“Magnetic North” means that the vertical lines are aligned in the

direction indicated as north by a compass, which can differ from True

North to varying amounts, depending on where you are on the Earth

(this difference is called “inclination” and “declination”.)

Most navigational charts and maps will have the datum listed. This

GPS receiver includes up to 100 map datums that allow you to

switch to a setting that matches your map. The most common US

map datums are World Geodetic System 1984 (WGS 84) North

American Datum 1983 (NAD 83) and North American Datum 1927

(NAD 27)

“Grid North” refers to the direction in which the straight lines on a

map are actually aligned, which may be slightly different from True

North, because the rounded surface of the Earth can not be

accurately depicted on the flat surface of a map.

NOTE: Using a map datum that does not match the chart you are

using can result in significant differences in position information.
