FOREWORD A Word to GP-1850WD/1850W Owners Navigation information is displayed on a bright 6.5-inch color TFT LCD. On-screen information 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 (WAAS: thirteen) satellites simultaneously. An 8-state Kalman filter ensures optimum accuracy in determination of vessel position, course and speed.
SYSTEM CONFIGURATION GPA-017 (GP-1850W) GPA-019 (GP-1850WD) ANTENNA UNIT Receives signal from GPS satellite and beacon reference station. (GP-1850WD only) DISPLAY UNIT External equipment (Autopilot, etc.
WHAT IS WAAS? WAAS, available in North America, is a provider in the worldwide SBAS (Satellite Based Augmentation System) navigation system. An SBAS provider furnishes GPS signal corrections to SBAS users. Two more SBAS providers are also currently under development, MSAS (Multi-Functional Satellite Augmentation System) for Japan and EGNOS (Euro Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service) for Europe. All providers will be compatible with one another, thus providing “seamless” position fixes to SBAS users.
