1 Section 1: Read Me First! How this manual can get you out on the road, fast! Welcome to the exciting world of GPS satellite navigation! We know you're anxious to begin finding your way with this space-age technol- ogy, but we have a favor to ask.
2 Section 3 contains short, easy-to-scan GPS lessons that follow one an- other in chronological order. They're all you'll need to know to find your way on the water or in the wilderness quickly.
3 How Lowrance GPS Works You'll navigate faster and easier if you understand how the GlobalMap Baja scans the sky to tell you where you are on the earth — and, where you're going (But if y.
4 tape in a cassette tape recorder. You can save several different GPS data files, erase 'em and record new ones, over and over again. Like any com- puter file, these GPS Data Files (file format *.usr) can be shared be- tween Lowrance GPS or sonar/GPS units or even personal computers.
5 the armed forces of the U.S. and its allies. Civilian use was also avail- able at first, but it was less accurate because the military scrambled the signal somewhat, using a process called Selective Availability (SA).
6 GlobalMap Baja to determine directio n of travel, you must be moving and the faster, the better. This is not to say that it won’t work at walk- ing or trolling speeds — it will. There will simply be more "wandering" of the data shown on the display.
7 Arrow Keys The arrow keys control the movement of dotted cross-hair lines on your mapping screen called the cursor. The arrow keys help you move around the menus so you can execute different commands. They are represented by symbols like these, which denote the down arrow key, the up arrow, the left arrow and the right arrow: ↓ ↑ ← → .

9 Section 2: Installation & Accessories Preparations You can install the GPS system in some other order if you prefer, but we recommend this installation sequence: Caution: You should read over this entire installation section before drill- ing any holes in your vehicle or vessel! 1.
10 You need to select an antenna installation location that has a clear, un- obstructed view of the sky. After the module is installed, connect it to the unit. The LGC-3000 can communicate with your GPS unit either directly (using the supplied extension cable) or through a NMEA 2000 ® network.
11 NOTE: There are two basic power connection options, which are shown in the following two diagrams. Read the following instructions carefully to determine which power connection applies to your unit. De- pending on your configuration, yo u may not use all of these wires.
12 this unit could be damaged to a point that it is irreparable and could even cause harm to the user when not properly fused. Failure to use a 3-amp fuse will void your warranty. If possible, keep the power cable away from other boat wiring, especially the engine's wires.
13 The network and any NMEA 2000 devices, including the GPS module, will not operate unless the NMEA 2000 Power Cable is connected to power. The NMEA 2000 power cable must be connected to power even if your only NMEA 2000 device is the GPS module and it is connected to the display unit's Network socket.
14 use the method shown in Power Diagram B above. Never attach two power sources to a single NMEA 2000 bus. If you do need to power your NM EA 2000 bus, attach the NMEA 2000 Power cable to an accessory switch as in dicated in power diagram A.
15 LGC-3000 and display unit as an expandable NMEA 2000 network. The diagram above has a double T connector with two 120-ohm termina- tors — one at each end of the connector.
16 Com-1 wiring to exchange information with another device. Com-2 wiring to exchange information with another device. Orange (Receive) Shield (Ground) Transmit Ground Com-1 To Unit To Other Device Y .
17 Cable connections, GlobalMap Baja 840c. Ethernet (for later expansion) Pow er/Data Netw ork NMEA 0183 Data cable ( five wires ) 120-ohm female terminator LGC-3000 GPS Module NMEA 2000 Pow er cable .
18 Expanding to a NMEA 2000 Network A network bus is an installed and operational network cable (backbone) running the length of your boat, al ready connected to a power supply and properly terminated. Such a bus provides network connection nodes at various locations around your boat.
19 NOTE: If you have a double T Connector on your network that is not at- tached to a device, you must cap the unused connector with a NMEA 2000 cap. This will protect the pin connectors from corro- sion. The NMEA 2000 cap looks like a terminator, but has "Cap" stamped into the connector housing.
20 NOTE: You do not need a Bus Adapter Cable with this unit if you use an approved Devicenet NMEA 2000 connector. Approved Devicenet NMEA 2000 connectors work with Lowrance red connector dis- play units and components, so no adapter cables are needed.
21 Install the gimbal bracket. Place the bracket so the arms slope toward the front of your unit. Once a location is determined, use the bracket as a template and mark the mounting holes and the hole for the cables. Drill a 1-inch (25.4 mm) hole in the dash for the power, transducer and antenna cables.
22 To pass all connectors through the 1" hole, first pass the antenna con- nector up through the hole from under the dash. Next, pass the power cable's bare-wire end down though the hole from the top. If you wish, you can fill in the hole around the cables with a good ma- rine caulking compound.
23 Memory card compartment with a 16 MB MMC card installed. To remove an MMC or SD Card 1. Open the card compartment door by unscrewing the thumb screw. The screw should only be finger tight. If it was over-tightened, use a thumbnail, a coin or a screwdriver to open the door.
24 MapCreate™ 6 CD-ROM, left; MMC card reader for USB ports, right. Now that you have your GlobalMap Ba ja installed, move on to Section 3, Basic GPS Operations . There, we'll present a series of step-by-step tutorials to teach you the basics of GPS navigation.
25 Section 3: Basic GPS Operations This section addresses the unit's most basic GPS operations. The tuto- rials presented in Sec. 3 follow a chronological order. Sec. 4, Advanced GPS Operations , will discuss other more advanced functions and utili- ties.
26 3. MENU – Press this key to show the menus and submenus, which allow you to select a command or ad just a feature. This also accesses search functions for streets, intersections, addresses and highway exits. 4. ARROW KEYS – These keys are used to navigate through the menus, make menu selecti ons, move the map cursor and ente r data.
27 Main Menu. The Main Menu commands and their functions are: Screen command: changes the contrast or brightness of the screen. Sounds command: enables or disables the sounds for key strokes and alarms and sets the alarm style. Transparency command: adjusts the level of transparency for menus.
28 Pages The unit has four Page displays that represent the four major operating modes. They are the Satellite Status Page, the Navigation Page, the Map Page and Radar Page (for more information on Radar see additional ma- terials).
29 The Satellite Status Page. This screen shows a graphical view of the satellites that are in view. Each satellite is shown on the circular chart re lative to your position. The point in the center of the chart is directly ov erhead. The small inner ring represents 45° above the horizon and the large ring represents the horizon.
30 The navigation screen looks lik e the one below when you're not navi- gating to a waypoint or following a route or trail. Your position is shown by an arrow in the center of the screen. Your trail history, or path you've just taken, is depicted by the line extending from the ar- row.
31 Bearing window shows the compass direction straight to the destina- tion from your location at the moment. Distance shows how far it is to the waypoint you're navigating toward. The Off Course window shows the current cross track error. This shows the distance you are off-course to the side of the desired course line.
32 In the example above, the driver is headed north (a 355º track) toward a waypoint 355º (bearing) away. The cross track error range (white cor- ridor) is 0.20 miles either side of the course. The driver is headed to- ward trail waypoint 4, which is 0.
33 Map Page opening screen (left). Zoomed to 100 miles (center) and zoomed to 15 miles (right). Over Zoomed means you have reached the detail limits in an area covered only by the basic background map.
