1 INTRODUCTION W elcome to the exciting w orld of GPS! Whether you’ re a first-time user or a prof essional navigator , you’ll find the GlobalNav 12 is a full-f eatured GPS receiver at a price that w as impossible just a fe w years ago .
2 S/A - What is it? Another f actor that greatly influences the receiver’ s ability to determine position is SA. The United States gov ernment intentionally degrades the satellites signal f or civilian users. They introduce small errors into the satellite’ s signals that makes the GPS receiv er less accurate.
3 GETTING ST ARTED P ower The Expedition operates from f our AA batter ies, or one DURA CELL® NiMH rechargeable battery , or from 5 to 16 volts DC using the e xter nal pow er cable. If the power cab le is used, the Expedition automatically s witches to it if the external power is greater than the battery voltage .
4 Replace the compar tment cov er and follo w the charging instructions included with the BR-1. (Note: The DR-121 is the only battery that can be recharged in this unit! Using the e x- ternal power cab le alone does not charge the battery! Y ou must use a charger supplied b y Eagle in order to charge the batter y .
5 show in addition to the normal menus. If the navigation screen is showing, and you press the MENU k ey , plotter menu items won’t sho w on the list. This helps you find the item y ou need without scrolling through unneces- sa r y me nus. T urning Po wer On T o tur n the unit on, simply press the PWR ke y .
6 quality the unit currently has. The smaller the e xpected error number , the better (and more accurate) the fix is. If the e xpected error is flashing, then the unit has not lock ed onto the satellites, and the n umber shown is not v alid.
7 Quick Initialization If you don’t w ant to wait f or the Auto Search, then y ou can speed up the initialization process by using the “Quick Initialization” f eature. T o do this , first turn the unit on, then press the MENU key . The screen shown at right appears.
8 The unit returns to the full initialization screen. Repeat this f or each of the other settings until they’ re correct f or your location and time. Note: The position doesn’t hav e to be v er y accurate. If you enter a posi- tion within one degree of y our actual location, the unit will be able to acquire the proper satellites .
9 T o change modes, simply press the P A GES key . A screen similar to the one at right appears. Use the up or down arrow k eys to change modes . (The windows mode is shown as “GRP” (groups); group “A” is the first windows group .
10 distance you are off-course to the side of the desired course line. The course line is an imaginar y line dra wn from your position when y ou star ted navigating to the destination wa ypoint. It’ s shown on the screen as a v er tical dotted line .
11 in the center . If you drift off course to the left, the line mov es to the right . This signifies that you need to steer to the right to get back on course . This is called “chasing the needle”. If y ou steer towards the line (needle), you’ll alw a ys be heading in the correct direction to get back on course .
12 Plot-3 (see at the top of the ne xt page) is similar to plot-2. The major difference is the steering arrow and w aypoint information at the bottom of the screen. When you na vigate to a wa ypoint, the wa ypoint’s name and number sho w at the bottom of this screen.
13 F rom the Plotter Options menu, choose Update Options to change the update rate or type . Select the option that you wish to change , use the left or right arrow k eys to adjust it, then press the EXIT k ey to erase the menu. Plotter Orientation Normally , the plotter shows nor th at the top of the screen.
14 GRIDS RINGS BO TH The course-up mode locks the top of the screen into the original bearing to the wa ypoint when navigation w as first star ted. (See the navigation section f or more inf ormation on course, trac k, and wa ypoint na vigation.
15 ICONS The plotter has 28 symbols or “icons” availab le that can be placed any- where on the screen. The y can be used to mark fishing or hunting loca- tions, landmarks, boat ramps , and vir tually any point of interest. An icon can be placed at y our present position or at the cursor’ s location.
16 Place Icon - Cursor P osition T o place an icon at the cursor’ s position, first use the arrow k eys to mov e the cursor to the location that you wish to place the icon. Next, press the ENT ke y . Now select the icon using the arrow k eys. When it’ s highlighted, press the ENT ke y .
17 Y ou can delete individual icons by selecting the DEL FROM PLO TTER menu from the Icon Options menu. Once this menu is selected, the unit returns to the plot- ter screen with the cursor activated as sho wn at right. Use the arrow k eys to mo ve the cursor to the icon that you w ant to erase.
18 Group C This group consists of bearing, track, distance to go , and estimated time en route. Group D Bearing, distance to go, tr ack, ground speed, estimated time of arrival, estimated time en route , v elocity made good (VMG), estimated time of arrival, and CDI sho w on this screen.
19 Group G This screen shows the present position, bearing, dis- tance to go , trac k, and ground speed. Group H Present position, a large CDI, distance to go , and estimated time en route show on this screen.
20 Group J - Cloc k Alarm This group has both estimated time of arrival and en route, plus the cloc k and a clock alarm. T o set the cloc k alarm, press the MENU ke y while this group is show- ing, then highlight the Clock Alm Set label and press the right arrow ke y .
21 The up timer has an alarm that can be set to sound at a preset time. (F or e xample, one hour from now , three hours, etc.) If y ou tur n the up timer’ s alarm on (press the right arrow ke y when the Up ALM...Off/On label is highlighted, it sounds an alarm when it reaches the time you entered in the up timer set menu.
22 Repr ogram Boxes The digital bo xes on the PLO T -2 and both NA V screens can also be re- progr ammed, using a method similar to the one used to reprogram the window groups . T o customize a screen, first s witch to the screen that you want to custom- ize .
23 W A YPOINTS This GPS receiver giv es you the ability to create y our own database of locations, called “wa ypoints’. Y ou can sav e your present position, cursor position, or enter a coordinate and sav e it as a wa ypoint. For e xample, you ma y wish to store the location of your park ed car as a waypoint be- f ore star ting on a hike .
24 Saving The Cursor P osition as a W aypoint When the cursor is showing on the plotter and y ou press the WPT key twice, the cursor’ s position is placed into the first a vailable wa ypoint num- ber . In the e xample screen shown below , the cursor is placed at the desired location.
25 SELECTING A WA YPOINT In order to edit or navigate to a w aypoint, y ou must first select it. There are three wa ys to do this: by w aypoint n umber , wa ypoint list, or nearest. All wa ypoint selection methods are on the main wa ypoint menu sho wn at the top of this page.
26 Edit Name Y ou can assign a name to each wa ypoint. The name can hav e up to eight characters. T o do this, first select Name Edit from the Options menu. A screen similar to the one at right appears. Press the up or down arrow k e ys to select the first let- ter in the name.
27 W A YPOINT NA VIGA TION The GlobalNav 12 mak es it easy to navigate to any w a ypoint. All you ha v e to do is select the wa ypoint (see page 26), then highlight the “GO T O” label on the wa ypoint screen and press the right arrow ke y .
28 Navigating to a W a ypoint using the Plotter The unique “birds-e y e” vie w used by the plotter giv es you an easy w a y to na vigate to a wa ypoint. On the plotter screen shown above , the diamond with a cross in it is your present position. The bo x with the “S” in it w as your starting location when you recalled the wa ypoint.
29 pears. Again, in this e xample, we chose to mo ve wa ypoint number 1 to w a ypoint number 9, so we pressed the right arrow k ey until “9” appeared. As you can see on the screen belo w , waypoint n umber 1 is showing in the “F rom” bo x. Now press the ENT ke y .
30 Project a W aypoint Y ou can sav e a wa ypoint ev en if you don’t know it’ s position or location on the plotter . This unit lets y ou project the location of a wa ypoint from a known wa y- point using only bearing and distance from the known w a ypoint.
31 P osition A veraging The eff ects of Selective A v ailability , described in the Introduction, can be minimized or virtually eliminated using position aver aging. Y ou can only sav e a wa ypoint using this method, howe ver the location sa ved can be much more accur ate than any other method without using DGPS.
32 Create a Route T o create a route, first press the MENU ke y , highlight the “PLAN/EDIT ROUTES” label, and press the right arrow k e y . The screen shown at right appears. This unit can store up to 20 routes. Route number one shows on this page .
33 unit returns to the wa ypoint list screen. The second wa ypoint shows be- neath the first one, with bearing and distance from the first wa ypoint in the route to the second showing under the second w aypoint’ s name. The total route distance shows at the bottom of the screen.
34 Following a Route Bef ore star ting the route, y ou’ll need to decide if yo u want to start at the beginning and tra vel f orward or star t at the last wa ypoint in the route and tra v el backw ards (re verse) to the first w a ypoint. The def ault is forward.
35 Delete a Route T o erase a route, first press the MENU ke y , then highlight the “Plan/Edit Routes” label and press the right arrow ke y . Now select the route you w ant to erase at the top of the screen, then highlight the “Delete Route” label and press the right arrow k ey .
36 The time dela y is adjustable from 5 to 240 seconds by selecting Light Dly from the System Setup menu . Y ou can also tur n the lights on contin u- ously from this menu. Highlight this menu, then press the right arrow ke y to increase the time the lights are on, the left arrow k ey to decrease it.
37 based transmitters that send correction signals to small DGPS receiv ers. DGPS giv es y ou more accurate positions than is otherwise possib le . All wiring connections to the GlobalNav 12 are made through the pow er cable . See the sample wiring diagrams on the ne xt page f or general wir- ing procedures.

39 arrow k ey to turn it on. (Note: If you ha ve a Magna vo x DGPS receiver connected, the GlobalNav 12 can’t send NMEA data.) With the e xception of serial communications, typically no other setup needs to be made with these receiv ers.
40 System Info The system inf o rmation screen shows the release date and the software’ s v ersion number . T o view this screen, highlight the System Inf o label on the System Setup menu. Now press the right arrow k ey . Press the EXIT ke y when you’ re finished reading this screen.
41 arrow k ey . A screen similar to the one at r ight appears . Press the up or down arro w keys to highlight the desired f or mat. Press the EXIT k ey to erase the position f ormat menu. D A TUM Maps and charts are based on a sur ve y of the area that’ s cov ered by the map or char t.
42 F or example , suppose you are stopped at a location that is accurately marked on a char t. Y our unit sho ws a longitude position that is .244 minutes east of the one on the chart and .047 minutes nor th latitude . Using the PCF f eature, you can mak e the GlobalNav 12 match the char t y ou’ re using.
43 This also aff ects the na vigational displa ys . The easiest wa y to see the effects of S/A is to stand still with the GPS receiv er tur ned on and watch y our plot trail with position pinning turned off. Y ou’ll see the present position change, speed increase and decrease , and a random plot trail on the plotter’ s screen.
44 Arrival Alarm - If you set the arrival alarm’ s distance to a small number , and you run a route (see the routes section), the GlobalNa v 12 may not show na vigation data to the next w aypoint, once y ou arr iv e at the first one, since y ou may not be ab le to come close enough to the first wa ypoint to trip the arrival alar m.
45 right. A moon symbol shows near the bottom of the screen, showing the appro ximate phase of the moon. The arrow ne xt to the symbol shows if it is moving tow ards a full moon (up) or a new moon (down). Press the EXIT ke y to erase this screen. SIMULA TOR A simulator is b uilt into this unit that has sev eral options.
