The following points should also be noted; t Genuine Raytheon cables should be used at all times. Cutting and rejoining these cables can compromise EMC performance and so should be avoided unless doing so is detailed in the installation manual. Raytheon equipment should be serviced only by authorised Raytheon service engineers. They will ensure that service procedures and replacement parts used will not affect EMC performance. There are no user serviceable parts in any Raytheon product. Voltage drops below 10v in the power supply to our products can cause the equipment to reset. This will not damage the equipment but will cause the loss of some information and can change the operating mode. This most frequently happens during engine starting, and so to reduce the risk of this occurring, it is recommended that the equipment is supplied from a different battery than the one used for engine start. Some products generate high voltages, and so never handle the cables/ connectors when power is being supplied to the equipment. Always check the installation before going to sea to make sure that it is not affected by radio transmissions, engine starting etc. In some installations, it may not be possible to prevent the equipment from being affected by external influences. In general this will not damage the equipment but can lead to it resetting, or momentarily result in faulty operation.
Please keep these notes for future reference.

Chapter 5: Fault Finding & Maintenance

5.1 Fault Finding

If your GPS11 fails to operate check the battery condition and ensure that the contacts are clean. If an external power source is being used check the voltage and ensure that the Power/Data plug is clean and secure. If the unit powers up but fails to obtain a fix ensure that the unit has a clear view of the sky. Reception will be affected by buildings, trees and other objects that restrict the signal from the satellites, it is wise to check with another GPS operator locally to ensure that the satellite system is fully operational In the unlikely event that a fault develops within the unit there are no user serviceable parts and the complete GPS11 should be returned to a registered Apelco Service Agent for attention.

Items Missing?

If any of the above items is missing or damaged, please contact your Raymarine dealer or our Product Support Department to obtain replacements.
2.3 Planning the Installation
When planning to install your RC400 using the bracket mount and ships power, the following points should be considered to ensure reliable and trouble free operation: Convenience: The unit should be installed in a convenient position where it can be viewed straight on or with a viewing angle of less than 35. You may wish to apply power before you install the unit, to determine the best viewing angle prior to fixing. The mounting location should be easily accessible to allow operation of the controls. Access: There must be sufficient space below the unit to allow cable connection to the bottom connector, avoiding tight bends in the cable. Interference: The selected location should be far enough away from devices that may cause interference, such as motors and generators. Power Source: The unit should be located near a DC power source. The power cable supplied is 1.5m (5ft), but a longer cable can be used if required. Power must be supplied via a 1A quick blow fuse or circuit breaker. Refer to Running the Cable on page 16. Interconnections: The unit transmits navigation and waypoint data on NMEA and, therefore, can be connected to an NMEA compatible devices. The navigation data transmitted by the chartplotter is detailed in Appendix A. Environment: The unit should be protected from physical damage, heat sources and excessive vibration. Although the unit is waterproof, it is good practice to mount it in a protected area away from prolonged and direct exposure to rain and/or salt spray. The dimensions of the unit are shown in Figure 2-1.

Note: Head Up and Course Up modes are dependent upon a valid GPS fix.

Plotter Mode

Plotter mode allows the user to zoom in beyond the level of cartography and continue to use plotter functions. The selected setting is retained when unit switched off.

Show Waypoints

This option controls whether or not the waypoints are shown on the Chart display, with their appropriate symbols. The active waypoint, and waypoints in the current route, are always shown.

Waypoint Symbol

This option allows selection of the symbol for waypoint display. The selected symbol is used for subsequent waypoints. Existing waypoints are not affected. The selected symbol is retained when the unit switched off.

Autozoom

When autozoom is enabled, initializing any navigation function or selecting FIND SHIP activates Autozoom. When active, this selects the chart range and position such that the vessel and the target waypoint are both on screen but at the largest scale possible. Moving the cursor off the vessel, or changing scale, deactivates Autozoom. Autozoom will not zoom in beyond the largest cartographic scale (unless Plotter Mode is activated). When in MOB mode, Autozoom is selected automatically and will zoom in as far as possible, irrespective of the selection of Plotter Mode.

Screen Amplifier

Screen amplifier mode makes best use of the screen by positioning the vessel on the screen so as to increase forward visibility. The screen amplifier is only active when the cursor is homed on the vessel.

COG Vector

When ON, a vector line from the vessel is drawn in the direction of COG. This line extends to the edge of the screen. If COG is not valid, no line is drawn. The selected setting is retained when the unit switched off.

Arrival Circle

The selected value is used as the arrival circle radius. When approaching the target waypoint, this is the distance at which the arrival alarm is triggered. The selected setting is retained when unit switched off. Arrival criteria are met when the arrival circle is entered or a line perpendicular to the desired track and passing through the waypoint is crossed.

Anchor Alarm

The selected value is used as the anchor alarm distance. If the vessel moves outside of the selected distance from its position (at the time that the alarm was enabled) an alarm message is displayed. Pressing any key removes the warning and resets the distance. The alarm will not be triggered again unless the vessel moves the selected distance from its position (at the time that the alarm was turned off). The alarm is set to OFF on power up.

XTE Alarm

The selected value is used as the cross track error limit. The alarm is triggered when the cross track error exceeds the selected limit when a GOTO or a Route Follow is in progress and an alarm message is displayed.

Select Chart

Use SELECT CHART to access different charts from the same Gold Card.
Use the trackpad up/down buttons to select the desired chart and press ENTER to load this as the active chart. Note: Only one chart can be active at any one time.

Chart Text

When ON, Chart text (such as place names) are shown on the screen. The selected setting is retained when the unit switched off.

Chart Boundaries

When ON, Chart boundary lines are shown on the screen. The selected setting is retained when the unit switched off.

Safety Contours

Set to display safety contours of less than 2, 5, 10 and 20 meters or set to OFF. The selected setting is retained when the unit switched off.

Depth Contours

Set to display depth contours of 5, 10 and 20 meters, set to ALL to show all contours or set to OFF. The selected setting is retained when the unit switched off.

Spot Soundings

When ON, spot soundings are displayed. The selected setting is retained when the unit switched off.

Light Sectors

When ON, light sectors are displayed. The selected setting is retained when the unit switched off.

Presentation

Set to display navigation mark in either INTERNATIONAL or US symbology. The selected setting is retained when the unit is switched off.

Position Calibration

When ON, all position data is offset from WGS 84 by the value of the selected calibration. The selected setting is retained when the unit switched off. The default calibration offset is zero.
To perform position calibration:
1. Use the trackpad to select POSITION CALIBRATION. 2. Move the trackpad horizontally. The menu is removed and a single function and help text are shown:

3. Using the trackpad, set the desired offset value. The distance and bearing of cursor from vessel is displayed in the Status Bar as BRG and RNG. 4. Press CLEAR to reset the value to zero and return to the Chart Set Up menu. or Press ENTER to confirm the selected offset value.You are returned to the Chart Set Up menu with POSITION CALIBRATION set to ON. Position data is followed by (c) to indicate that the calibration offset has been set. An offset of 2nm or less is applied to all position data equal to the range and bearing between the WGS 84 position and the position entered. Note: Pressing ENTER with a selected offset of more than 2nm gives a warning message which is cleared on any key press. The Calibration Set Up mode maintains and the user can either reselect an acceptable offset or press CLEAR to reset the value to zero and return to the Set Up menu.

Saving the Current Route

You can save up to 20 named routes in the route database. These routes can then be re-displayed and followed subsequently. Note: If you attempt an operation that affects this route (CLEAR ROUTE, for example) before the current route is saved, you are prompted to save it.

CDI Display

The CDI display shows Cross Track Error (XTE) and distance to waypoint presented in a runway format:

D6241-1

Figure 5-5: CDI Display The runway represents a 0.3nm width with the vessel symbol shown on the center line when the vessel is on course. Cross Track Error (XTE), Bearing to Waypoint, Distance to Waypoint, Time to Go (TTG), Course Over Ground (COG) and Speed Over Ground (SOG) are also shown. Time to Go is calculated on the basis of distance to destination and Speed Over Ground (SOG) towards the destination. At waypoint ranges greater than 4nm, the symbol remains at the top of the screen. As the waypoint range falls below 4nm, the symbol moves down the center line. The checkered pattern moves down the screen to simulate movement when SOG is greater than 2 knots.

The steering instruction is STEER STARBOARD if the XTE is 0.01nm or more to port, STEER PORT if the XTE is 0.01nm or more to starboard or ON COURSE if the XTE is less than 0.01 on either side. If no GoTo or Follow is in progress, the steering instruction is NOT TRACKING. The graphical XTE indication places arrows either side of the steering instruction and pointing towards it, dependent on the value of XTE. The first arrow is shown when the XTE reaches 0.01nm, the second at.05nm and subsequently at 0.1nm intervals.

BDI Display

D6242-2
Figure 5-6: BDI Display The BDI display shows deviation from the bearing to waypoint and distance to waypoint. Cross track Error, Bearing to Waypoint, Distance to Waypoint, Time to Go, COG and SOG are also shown. Time To Go is calculated on the basis of distance to destination and velocity made good towards destination. The line to the waypoint symbol is shown at an angle equal to the difference between the COG and the Bearing to Waypoint.
The range scale automatically scales for distance. The ranges shown are 1nm, 4nm, 20nm, 40nm, 100nm, 200nm, 400nm, 1000nm, 2000nm, 4000nm. In each case the range scale has graduations at , and of the current scale. The steering instruction for the BDI display uses the deviation from vessel bearing to waypoint bearing to instruct you to turn the vessel towards the target waypoint. This is different from the steering instructions in all other display modes, which use the XTE to assist you in steering the vessel back towards the rhumbline between origin and destination. The steering instruction is STEER PORT if the waypoint line is 1 or more to port, STEER STARBOARD if the waypoint line is 1 or more to starboard or ON COURSE if the waypoint line is dead ahead. If no GoTo or Follow is in progress, the steering instruction is NOT TRACKING, no steering arrows are shown, but the rhumb line indicator is shown. The graphical steering indication will place arrows either side of the steering instruction and pointing towards it dependent on the difference between COG and bearing to Waypoint. The first arrow is shown when the difference reaches 5 and thereafter at 5 intervals.

Waypoint Data

The Waypoint Data display comprises text data occupying the whole screen.

D6243-2

Figure 5-7: Waypoint Data If a route is not selected, the ROUTE field displays NO ROUTE. The WAYPOINT field shows the name of the waypoint. If the waypoint is part of a route then the title field includes the waypoint index in the route. If there is no target waypoint the text indicates NO WAYPOINT and all waypoint data is shown as dashes, one per character. If a route is being followed and the waypoint is not named, the text shows the waypoint number within the route (as displayed on screen). If a GOTO Cursor or Port is in progress, the text indicates GOTO CURSOR or GOTO <Port Name>. BRG, RNG and XTE data relate to the target waypoint. Time refers to time data which is acquired from GPS information. Any local time offset is set in the System Set Up menu, see Chapter 4. The Time To Go (TTG) and Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) data relate to the target waypoint (not the whole route) and are based on the Speed

Routine Checks

The Chartplotter is a sealed unit. Maintenance procedures are therefore limited to the following periodic checks: Wipe the display unit clean with a damp cloth Examine the cables for signs of damage, such as chafing, cuts or nicks Check that the cable connectors are firmly attached and that the connections to the vessels DC power are clean and tight Ensure that the cartridge cover is always fitted correctly
Note: Never use chemical or abrasive materials to clean the chartplotter. If the unit is dirty, wipe it with a clean, damp cloth.

Servicing and Safety

Raymarine equipment should be serviced only by authorized Raymarine service technicians. They will ensure that service procedures and replacement parts used will not affect performance. There are no user serviceable parts in any Raymarine product. Some products generate high voltages, so never handle the cables/ connectors when power is being supplied to the equipment. When powered up, all electrical equipment produces electromagnetic fields. These can cause adjacent pieces of electrical equipment to interact with one another, with a consequent adverse effect on operation.
To minimize these effects and to give you the best possible performance from your Raymarine equipment, guidelines are given in the installation instructions that enable you to ensure minimum interaction between different items of equipment, that is, to ensure optimum Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC). Always report any EMC-related problem to your nearest Raymarine dealer. We use such information to improve our quality standards. In some installations, it may not be possible to prevent the equipment from being affected by external influences. In general this will not damage the equipment but it can lead to spurious resetting action, or momentarily may result in faulty operation.

6.2 Resetting the System

Three types of reset are available for the Chartplotter: Power-On Reset: When you turn the display unit off, then on again, the screen reverts to the chart display with all windows cleared. Hardware Reset: This procedure enacts a power-on reset if the unit has entered a lock-up condition. To perform a hardware reset, press and hold the POWER key for 9 seconds. Factory Reset: This resets all values back to their original factory settings. The factory default settings are listed in Chapter 4. Note: Take carefactory reset clears all Waypoint and Route databases. To perform a factory reset: 1. Power off the unit. 2. Press and hold CLEAR while powering up until <Erase backup procedure> is displayed. 3. Either press CLEAR to abort Factory Reset and resume normal Power-Up or press ENTER to continue Factory Reset. 4. Press ENTER again; the unit restarts as for a first time Power Up with all values reset to their original factory settings.
