Features
The GP-1850D is a totally integrated DGPS
beacon receiver, GPS receiver, and color
video plotter. The GP-1850 mostly shares the
same features with the GP-1850D except it
does not have a built-in DGPS beacon re-
ceiver.
Navigation information is displayed on a
bright 6.5-inch color TFT LCD. On-screen in-
formation shown are position, range and
bearing to cursor position, range, bearing,
ETA and TTG to waypoint, etc.
A high sensitivity receiver tracks up to twelve
satellites simultaneously. An 8-state Kalman
filter ensures optimum accuracy in determi-
nation of vessel position, course and speed.
C-MAP NT-FP chart card is available for the
GP-1850/1850D C-MAP NT.
The main features of the GP-1850D/GP-1850
are
• Comprehensive navigation data displays.
• Bright 6.5-inch color TFT LCD with tem-
perature compensated tone and brilliance
control.
• Automatic coastline chart loading.
• Position display in latitude and longitude,
Loran C or Decca TDs.
• Improved position accuracy with optional
DGPS beacon receiver (GP-1850).
• Accepts both FURUNO and NAVIONICS
or C-MAP NT mini chart cards.
• Alarms: Arrival, Anchor Watch, Cross-track
Error, Speed, Proximity.
• Man overboard feature records latitude
and longitude coordinates at time of man
overboard.
• “Highway” display provides graphic pre-
sentation of ship’s track and is useful for
monitoring cross track error.

START UP TEST
Figure 1-4 Start-up sequence
Your equipment takes about 90 seconds to
find its position when turned on for the very
first time. This is because the equipment has
no satellite data, called the Almanac, in its
database. If you want to lessen the time
needed to find position you may enter your
position manually (default position: San Fran-
cisco, USA) on the GPS SETUP OPTIONS
menu.
Thereafter it takes about 12 seconds to find
position each time the power is turned on.
When the satellite signal is being received
normally, the equipment displays various ab-
breviations at the bottom left-hand corner of
the display which show DGPS/GPS receiver
status. Table 1-1 shows these abbreviations
and their meanings.

5. WAYPOINTS
5.1 Entering Waypoints
In navigation terminology, a waypoint is a par-
ticular location on a voyage whether it be a
starting, intermediate or destination point. A
waypoint is the simplest piece of information
your equipment requires to get you to a des-
tination, in the shortest distance possible.
This unit has 835 waypoints (including quick
waypoints) into which you can enter position
information. There are five methods by which
you can enter a waypoint: at own ship’s po-
sition, at MOB position, by cursor, by range
and bearing, and through the waypoint list
(manual input of latitude and longitude).
Entering waypoints at own ship’s
position
You can save your current position as a
waypoint. Press the [SAVE/MOB] key with a
touch-and-release action to store your posi-
tion. This new waypoint will automatically be
saved in the waypoint list under the next con-
secutive waypoint number.
Entering waypoints at MOB position
The MOB mark functions to mark man over-
board position.
1. Press the [SAVE/MOB] key several sec-
onds to display the following message.
MAN OVER BOARD!
GO TO (MOB)?
YES ... "ENTER" key
NO ... "CLEAR" key
Figure 5-1 MOB message
2. Press the [ENTER] key to select MOB
position as destination, or the [CLEAR]
key to only mark MOB position.

6. ROUTES
Often a trip from one place to another involves
several course changes, requiring a series
of route points (waypoints) which you navi-
gate to, one after another. The sequence of
waypoints leading to the ultimate destination
is called a route. Your unit can automatically
advance to the next waypoint on a route, so
you do not have to change the destination
waypoint repeatedly.
You can store up to 200 routes. A route may
consist of 35 points.

COURSE VECTOR
You may extend a line from the own ship po-
sition to show ship’s course. The line can be
a vector (the length depends on the ship’s
speed.) or a line (course bar). The default set-
ting is LINE.
BEARING
A navigation device outputs both true and
magnetic bearings. A magnetic bearing is true
bearing plus (or minus) earth’s magnetic de-
viation. Thus the equation for finding mag-
netic bearing is;
true bearing ± x (magnetic variation)° = mag-
netic bearing
You can display your ship’s course and bear-
ing to waypoint in true or magnetic bearing,
and the default setting is magnetic.
MAG VARIATION
The magnetic variations for all areas of the
earth are preprogrammed into this unit. The
preprogrammed variation is accurate for most
instances, however you may wish to manu-
ally enter a variation.

GEODETIC DATUM
The GP-1850D, GP-1850 is preprogrammed
with most of the major chart systems of the
world. Although the WGS-84 system, the
GPS standard, is now widely used other cat-
egories of charts still exist. Select the chart
system used, not the area where your boat
is sailing. The default chart system is WGS-
84.

POS SMOOTHING
When the DOP or receiving condition is un-
favorable, the GPS fix may change greatly,
even if the vessel is dead in water. This
change can be reduced by smoothing the raw
GPS fixes. A setting between 000 to 999 is
available. The higher setting the more
smoothed the raw data, however too high a
setting shows response time to change in
latitude and longitude. This is especially no-
ticeable at high ship’s speeds. 000 is the
normal setting; increase the setting if the GPS
fix changes greatly.
SPD/CSE SMOOTHING
During position fixing, ship’s velocity (speed
and course) is directly measured by receiv-
ing GPS satellite signals. The raw velocity
data may change randomly depending on re-
ceiving conditions and other factors. You can
reduce this random variation by increasing
the smoothing. Like with latitude and longi-
tude smoothing, the higher the speed and
course smoothing the more smoothed the
raw data. If the setting is too high, however,
the response to speed and course change
slows. For no smoothing, enter all zeroes.
The default setting is 5 (sec).
GPS SPEED AVE
Calculation of ETA is based on average ship’s
speed over a given period. If the period is
too long or too short calculation error will re-
sult. Change this setting if calculation error
occurs. The default setting is 60 seconds,
which is suitable for most conditions.
LAT OFFSET, LON OFFSET
GPS generated position may be off by some
seconds due to GPS signal variation. You
may apply an offset to GPS position to refine
position accuracy.
DISABLE SATELLITE
Every GPS satellite is broadcasting abnor-
mal satellite number(s) in it’s Almanac, which
contains general orbital data about all GPS
satellites, including those which are malfunc-
tioning. Using this information, the GPS re-
ceiver automatically eliminates any
malfunctioning satellite from the GPS satel-
lite schedule. However, the Almanac some-
times may not contain this information. If you
hear about a malfunctioning satellite from
another source, you can disable it manually.
Enter satellite number (max. 3 satellites) in
two digits and press the soft key ENTER or
the [ENTER] key.
LATITUDE, LONGITUDE
The default latitude and longitude position is
San Francisco, USA (38.00.00’N,
123.00.000’W). When the unit is turned on
first the first time it begins searching for its
actual position. To lessen the time required
to find position, you may enter your position
manually. To switch from North to South and
vice versa, use the soft key N<-->S, and to
switch from West to East and vice versa, use
the soft key W<-->E. Finally, press the soft
key ENTER or the [ENTER] key.
ANT. HEIGHT
Enter the height of the antenna unit above
sea surface. For further details refer to the
installation manual. The default setting is 5
m.
FIX MODE
You can choose the position-fixing mode from
2D or 2D/3D. 2D requires three satellites to
fix position; 2D/3D requires three or four sat-
ellites, whichever is available. The default set-
ting is 2D/3D.
