PCF OFFSET The GPS navigation system relies on complex mathematical calculations to determine your position based on satellite data and other factors. One factor is the Earths shape. Since the Earth is not atrue sphere, variations in the calculations have to be made to accommodate deviations. To make matters more complex, not everyone uses the same[...]

POWER CONNECTIONS The UltraNav I! works from a twelve-volt battery system. For the best results, attach the power cable directly to the battery. You can attach the power cable to an accessory or power buss, however you may have problems with electrical interference. Therefore, ifs saferto go ahead and attach the powercable direotlytothe battery. If[...]

PRESET The white wire is for a NMEA interface. The UltraNav II sends data to The Presetfeature returns all sonar and OPS units to their original factory settings. This resets the units of measure, speaker volume, automatic mode onthe sonarside, displaycontrast, and more. This doesn'terase any waypoints or routes, however. To preset the unit, p[...]

Surface Mounting - Without Access If you don't have access to the back side of the mounting surface, use the "cleats" supplied with the UltraNav II. (Note: This is assuming you can "snake" the module's cableto a location that is accessable. A hole will still need to be drilled in the mounting surface for the cable.) Us[...]
