WARNING!

A CAREFUL NAVIGATOR NEVER RELIES ON ONLY ONE METHOD

TO OBTAIN POSITION INFORMATION.

CAUTION

When showing navigation data to a position (waypoint), a GPS unit will show

the shortest, most direct path to the waypoint. It provides navigation data to the

waypoint regardless of obstructions. Therefore, the prudent navigator will not

only take advantage of all available navigation tools when traveling to a way-

point, but will also visually check to make sure a clear, safe path to the waypoint

is always available.

WARNING!

When a GPS unit is used in a vehicle, the vehicle operator is solely re-

sponsible for operating the vehicle in a safe manner. Vehicle operators

must maintain full surveillance of all pertinent driving, boating or fly-

ing conditions at all times. An accident or collision resulting in damage

to property, personal injury or death could occur if the operator of a

GPS-equipped vehicle fails to pay full attention to travel conditions and

vehicle operation while the vehicle is in motion.

The background map is suitable for many navigation chores, but for

maximum accuracy and much more detail, you need our optional map-

making software, MapCreate 6, or one of our special plug-and-play

mapping cards. Some unit features — such as searching for businesses

and addresses — won't work without a custom MapCreate map. There

is so much detail in our background map (and even more in MapCreate)

that we'll describe their contents and differences in Section 3, Basic

GPS Operations, on page 30.

Another portion of the IntelliMap 642c's onboard memory is devoted to

recording GPS navigation information, which includes waypoints, event

marker icons, trails and routes. This lets you look back the way you came.

Think of this data storage like the hard drive memory in a computer or a

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 Eagle GPS or sonar/GPS units or even personal computers.

This IntelliMap 642c has one more thing in common with a personal

computer. Just as computers have a floppy disk drive for storing and ex-

changing files, the unit has a slot for an MMC (MultiMedia Card) or SD

card (Secure Digital card) flash memory card. These solid-state memory

devices are about the size of a postage stamp, but can hold data ranging

from 8 MB to 1 GB in size. (Compare that to a floppy disk's 1.44 MB ca-

pacity!) This unit uses all that MMC space for two key GPS purposes.

First, you can backup your onboard GPS Data Files by copying them to

the MMC. Since the MMC is removable (like a floppy disk or a cassette

tape), you can store these GPS Data Files on a personal computer

equipped with an MMC card reader. (Or store them on a pocketful of

MMCs, if you don't have a computer.) Our MapCreate mapping software

can save, edit or create its own GPS Data Files, which can be copied to the

MMC and then loaded from the MMC into the unit's memory. (NOTE: No

matter where they come from, GPS Data Files must be loaded from the

MMC into memory before the IntelliMap 642c can use them.)

The other key GPS use for MMCs is storage of special high-detail, cus-

tom maps, which you can produce on your computer with our MapCre-

ate software. These MapCreate custom maps contain much greater de-

tail than the basic background map. These Custom Map Files (file

format *.lcm) can also be shared between Eagle GPS or sonar/GPS

units and personal computers.

This unit automatically reads Custom Map Files directly from the

MMC or SD card. To use a custom map, all you need to do is slide an

MMC containing a map into the IntelliMap 642c.

The system requires signal reception from three satellites in order to

determine a position. This is called a 2D fix. It takes four satellites to

determine both position and elevation (your height above sea level —

also called altitude). This is called a 3D fix.

Remember, the unit must have a clear view of the satellites in order to

receive their signals. Unlike radio or television signals, GPS works at

very high frequencies. These signals can be easily blocked by trees,

buildings, an automobile roof, even your body.

Like most GPS receivers, this unit doesn’t have a compass or any other

navigation aid built inside. It relies solely on the signals from the sat-

ellites to calculate a position. Speed, direction of travel, and distance

are all calculated from position information. Therefore, in order for the

IntelliMap 642c to determine direction of travel, you must be moving

and the faster, the better. This is not to say that it won’t work at

walking or trolling speeds — it will. There will simply be more "wan-

dering" of the data shown on the display.

GPS alone is plenty accurate for route navigation, but the U.S. Federal

Aviation Administration has special aircraft navigation needs that go

beyond basic GPS. Consequently, the FAA has developed a program to

boost GPS performance with its Wide Area Augmentation System

(WAAS). The FAA commissioned the system on July 11, 2003.

WAAS is designed to increase GPS accuracy to within 7.6 meters verti-

cally and horizontally, but according to the FAA, it consistently comes

within 1-2 meters horizontally and 2-3 meters vertically. It does this by

broadcasting correction signals on GPS frequencies. Your unit auto-

matically receives both GPS and WAAS signals.

There are, however, some fringe areas of the U.S., including parts of

Alaska, that do not yet receive robust WAAS coverage. Continued

WAAS development is planned to extend WAAS coverage in the years

to come.

WAAS boosts the accuracy of land GPS navigation, but the system is

designed for aircraft. The satellites are in a fixed orbit around the

Equator, so they appear very low in the sky to someone on the ground

in North America. Aircraft and vessels on open water can get consis-

tently good WAAS reception, but terrain, foliage or even large man-

made structures can sometimes block the WAAS signal from ground

receivers.

You'll find that using your GPS receiver is both easy and amazingly

accurate. It’s easily the most accurate method of electronic navigation

available to the general public today.
