1. INTRODUCTION Congratulations on your purchase of the Standard Horizon GPS Chart Plotter. Whether this is your first GPS Chart Plotter, or if you have other STANDARD HORIZON equipment, the STANDARD HORIZON organization is committed to ensuring your enjoyment of this GPS Chart Plotter.
1.1.0 CP180/CP180i Packing List PART CODE ITEM S8002224A S8002225 S8002222 T9101553 S8002223 EM016N550 XUCMP0058 EM023U100 EM023U500 External bracket Mounting knob with two washers Dust cover Power data cable Flush mounting screws (CP180 ONLY) Flush mount template (CP180 ONLY) GPS WAAS Smart antenna Owner’s Manual Quick Reference Guide 1.1.
2. GETTING STARTED NOTE Throughout this Owner’s Manual same conventions are used. See the legend below: [MENU]If you see brackets around a bold and capital letter word this refers to a key press. [CHART] If you see brackets around a bold and small capital letter word this refers to a Soft Key press. GENERAL SETUP When a word(s) is bold capital letters and underlined, this refers to a menu selection item. 2.
2.2 CP180 AND CP300 FLUSH MOUNTING The CP180 and CP300 are supplied with a flush mount template for the cutout hole and screw holes required to install the GPS Chart Plotter. NOTE Before drilling holes make sure there is enough room to mount the GPS Chart Plotter and there are no obstructions. 1. After a location is found, peel the template label from the backing and apply the label to the mounting area. 2. Drill a hole in one area of the cutout area that will allow the blade of a jig saw to be inserted.
Choose a location for the antenna that has a clear view of the sky and is not located within 3 FT of Radar or other transmitting antennas. Ensure there are no major obstructions or fixtures in the immediate proximity to the antenna. The antenna relies on direct “line of sight” satellite reception. If you are unsure of the chosen location, temporarily mount the antenna in the desired location to verify correct operation.
2.4 CONNECTIONS The GPS Chart Plotter has connectors that are used to connect to the power supply, GPS Antenna (CP180 AND CP300 ONLY) optional FF520 50/200kHz BLACK BOX FISH FINDER and to NMEA devices such as VHF’s, AIS Receivers, digital instruments and autopilots. NOTE The GPS Chart Plotter can send many sentences to external NMEA devices. The NMEA Output wires are Yellow, Brown and White.
5. Move the ShuttlePoint knob up/down to select FF520 and press [ENT] or move the ShuttlePoint knob to the right. 6. Press [CLR] or move the ShuttlePoint knob to the left until the Chart page is shown. ***NOTE: AUTOPILOT CONNECTION Care must be taken when connecting the GPS Chart Plotter to an autopilot.

NOTE Port 2 Input and Output is used by the optional FF520. In the diagram above you will notice Port 2 Input and Output wires are shown in gray and not used. Port 4, and 5 Outputs are can be connected to NMEA devices capable of listening to NMEA 0183 sentences. Port 4, and 5 Inputs can be connected to NMEA devices capable of outputting to NMEA 0183 sentences. The Input and Output baud rate for each port are set using the Advanced Setup>In/Out Connections menu.
- DSC VHF Radio Depth Sounder, Speed Log, Wind Instrument, Autopilot etc. Personal Computer AIS receiver 2.7 GPS POSITION ON A VHF RADIO STANDARD HORIZON has pioneered Digital Selective Calling (DSC) on VHF radios. Advancements in DSC have made it possible to show the coordinates of a vessel that has transmitted a DSC Distress Call or even Poll the location of another vessel and show the position of that vessel on the display of STANDARD HORIZON VHFs.
2.10 NMEA DATA PAGE The NMEA Data Page is very useful to see if a External device (example: Depth Sounder) is transmitting NMEA sentences to the GPS Chart Plotter. This page can also be used to see if the GPS Chart Plotter NMEA output is being loaded down by a external NMEA device the GPS Chart Plotter is connected to. Example: VHF Radio connected but the radio is not receiving a GPS Position. Usually the VHF radio will be connected to the Green and Brown wires.

14. AIS AIS is an Automatic Identification System. It has been introduced to improve the safety of navigation by assisting in the efficient operation of ship-to-ship location reporting and VTS applications. The system should enable operators to obtain information from the ship automatically, requiring a minimum of involvement of ship’s personnel, and should have a high level of availability.
utes. The presentation will be a flashing black triangle with a cross through. Activation Range: Range around your boat where targets become active. AIS target become active within this range. Activation Range should be greater than CPA Limit by definition. ♦ NOTE A target is removed from the screen if data is not received for 10 minutes. The maximum number of tracked targets is 100. Depending on the scale the presentation of the targets change to remove clutter on the screen.

15. C-MAP WEATHER SERVICE C-MAP Weather Service is an innovative meteorological forecasting system with the ability to visualize the weather forecast, overlaying it on cartography. The weather data is held on C-MAP’s weather server, which can be accessed via a C-COM modem connected to the GPS Chart Plotter or by using the C-MAP personal Suite saving the weather data on a User C-CARD.
