All satellites broadcast a uniquely coded signal once per second at exactly the
same time. The GPS receiver on your boat receives signals from satellites that
are visible to it. Based on time differences between each received signal, the
GPS receiver determines its distance to each satellite. With distances known,
the GPS receiver mathematically triangulates its own position. With once per
second updates, the GPS receiver then calculates its velocity and bearing.
The GPS Receiver included with your 700 Series™ Fishing System allows you
to combine easy-to-use FishingGPS® chartplotter and navigation capabilities
with advanced fishfinding.
The following GPS functionality is currently supported by the 700 Series™
Fishing System when it is connected to the included GPS receiver:
View current position
View current track (breadcrumb trail)
View precision speed and heading from your GPS receiver
Save tracks, waypoints and routes
Travel a route and navigate from one waypoint to the next.
Your 700 Series™ supports Navionics® Gold, HotMaps™ and HotMaps™ Premium
on MMC or SD card media.
NOTE: Your 700 Series™ does not support Navionics® Classic Charts, only Navionics® Gold,
HotMaps™, and HotMaps™ Premium.
Your unit also comes with a built-in Uni-Map™ with a more detailed map of
North America (Domestic models) or a more detailed map of Europe and
Southeast Asia, including Australia and New Zealand (International models).
Your 700 Series™ uses the GPS Receiver to determine the position of the boat
automatically, and uses the zoom level settings on a particular view to select
the best chart to display. See Viewing Cartography for more information.
