MAPLINKTM
The
GlobalMap
1000 has an internal
"background" mapthatcovers
almost
the
whole world. It also shows southern
Canada,
all of the continental
United
States,
and Mexico at a
higher
resolution than othercountries. This
map
is sufficient for most
users, however,
Lowrance has an
optional
cartridge
reader called the
Maplink
that
accepts
both Lowrance and C-
MapTM cartridges.
These
cartridges
have small area
maps
built into them
that allows
you
to "zoom" in and see much more detail than is available on
the built-in
map.
The
Maplink
also has the
CMapTM background map
built
into
it,
so
you
have the
option
of
using
it orthe Lowrance
background map
at
anytime,
even if a
cartridge
isn't
plugged
into the
Maplink.
To install the
Maplink,
follow the instructions included with it. It can be
mounted on
top
of the
dash,
under the
dash,
or in the dash for a
clean,
professional
look. Once it's
installed,
route the cable included with the
Ma1.Aink
to the small connector on the back of the
GlobalMap
1000. If the
supplied
cable is too
short,
an extension
cable,
model MLXT-12 is
available that is 12 feet
long.
After
connecting
the
cable,
the
Maplink
is
ready
for use. The
Maplink
receives its
power through
the
connecting
cable,
simplifying
the installation.

You can attach
up
to seven
Maplink cartridge
readers to the
GlobalMap
1000. This lets
you
use different
cartridges
without
having
to
unplug
one
and
replace
it with anotherwhen
you
move out of the first
cartridge's
area.
This also allows the
mounting
of the
Maplinks
underthe
dash,
out of
sight.
If
you're
not
using
the
Maplink,
connect
the small terminator
plug
supplied
with
the
GlobalMap
1000 into the small connector
on the back of the unit.
This will
protect
the connect from the elements.
PERPENDICULAR
ALARM
The
perpendicular
alarm
sounds
when
your
course is
/
even with
a
waypoint
and is /
starting
to
pass
it. The
perpen-
.., /
dicular alarm
has no
adjust-
''""-—....,,
/
ment. It doesn't care how far
-
from a
recalled
waypoint you
/3
are;
it
soundsonlywhen you're
/
passing
the
recalled
waypoint.
For
example,
on the
map
at
/
right,
the
waypoint
is
perpen-
dicular to the
present position's
course. In this
example,
as soon as the
present position
crosses the
imaginary
dashed
line,
the
perpendicular
alarm will be
"tripped"
and sound an alarm.
NMEA OUTPUT
The
GlobalMap
1000
sends data out
according
to standards set
by
the
NMEA(National
Marine
ElectronicsAssociation).
ThisallowstheGlobalMap
1000 to send
position,
and
navigation
information to "listener'
units,
such
as
autopilots
and other
marine instruments. The
GlobalMap
1000
usesthe
following
NMEAdataprotocols:
NMEAO1 80 and 0183. NMEA 0180 sends
steering
information
only.
It's useful
mainly
for
autopilots.
NMEA
0183
sends
position, steering, speed,
and more. In orderto use this
feature,
the
wires on the
power
cable must
be connected to the NMEA data
input
on
the other instrument.
See the installation section in the front of this
manual
for
wiring
connection information.
Once
you
connect the
wiring properly,
the
GlobalMap
1000 must be told
which data format to use. Consult the
owner's manual of the "listener"
equipment
to see which format it needs. Then set the
GlobalMap
1000 as
follows:
First,
press
the MENU
"I/O and Initialization" label. Now
pressthe keynexttothe
"NMEA
___________________________
Output"
label until the check _____________________________
mark moves to the desired
po-
sition
-
either 0183 or 0180. ___________________________
Press the CLR
key
to exit this
_______
screen. The
GlobalMap
1000
will start
sending
NMEA data.
___________________________
Note: If the
Magnavox
DGPS
receiver is connected to the
GlobalMap
1000,
no NMEA
data can be sent.
