Congratulations!
You have purchased one of the finest 12-channel GPS receivers Eagle™
has ever made. With its large LCD screen, easy to use menus, and out-
standing performance, we think you’ll be happy with your Eagle View™
for many years.
GPS works from satellites that transmit information to the world at very
high frequencies. One disadvantage to this frequency is that it’s “line-of-
sight”. In other words, the signals don’t bounce around like your local
radio or television. If you don’t have a clear view of the sky, or if you’re
inside a metal boat dock or garage, the unit probably won’t be able to pick
up the signals from the satellites.This is common among all GPS receiv-
ers.
Like most GPS receivers, your Eagle View doesn’t have a compass or
any other navigation aid built into it. It relies solely on the signals from the
satellites to determine its position.Speed, direction of travel, and distance
are all calculated from position information. Therefore, in order for it to
determine the direction you’re travelling, you must be moving, and the
faster - the better.This is not to say the unit won’t work at walking speeds
- it will. But the faster you travel, the easier it is for the unit to determine
your direction.
Another factor that influences the GPS’ position and navigation capabili-
ties is called selective availability or S/A.This is small errors purposefully
injected into the transmitted signal from the satellites. The government
does this to degrade the system’s accuracy to civilian and foreign users.
Even with S/A, GPS is the most accurate navigation system ever invented
on such a large scale. The Government’s accuracy specification is 100
meters horizontally and 150 meters vertically 95% of the time. In other
words, the position shown on your Eagle View could be up to 100 meters
in any direction from your actual position, and the altitude could be plus or
minus 150 meters from what’s shown on the screen, 95% of the time.
There are two ways around the S/A problem. One is to have the govern-
ment simply turn it off. In fact, there is growing pressure on them to do
that, but it’s not likely to happen anytime soon. The other method is to
purchase a DGPS receiver and connect it to your Eagle View. A DGPS
receiver (commonly called a beacon receiver), picks up correction sig-
nals broadcast from ground stations.The Eagle View takes these correc-
tions and applies them to the position and altitude screens, giving you
much better accuracy.
Even with S/A on, and without a DGPS receiver, your Eagle View gives
1
you outstanding position and navigation information. Most people are
amazed when they actually use a GPS receiver and see what it does.
Please sit down with the unit and this manual and familiarize yourself with
them before using the EagleView in the “real world”.A simulator is built in,
which lets you practice.
INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION - Bracket
You can install the Eagle View on the top of a dash or from an overhead
with the supplied bracket. It can also be installed in the dash with an
optional IDA-3 mounting kit. A swivel bracket is included that converts the
Eagle View's gimbal bracket to a swivel mount. You can mount the Eagle
Viewinanyconvenientlocation,providedthereisclearancewhenit’stilted
for the best viewing angle.
Bracket Installation - No Swivel
Holes in the bracket’s base allow wood screw or through bolt mounting. It
may be necessary to place a piece of plywood on the back side of thin
panels to reinforce the panel. Make certain there is enough room behind
the unit to attach the power and antenna cables.

POWER
The EagleView will operate from a 12-volt DC system. (9 to 15 volts DC.)
You can connect the power cable to an accessory buss under the dash,
however, to keep electrical noise interference to a minimum, we recom-
mend you wire the power cable directly to the battery through the sup-
plied 2-amp fuse.
CAUTION!
Do not connect this product to a power source without using a fuse!
Failure to use the fuse can cause damage to your unit and will void the
warranty.
Follow the wiring diagram below. If the wires on the power cable are not
long enough to reach the battery, use 18 gauge wire to lengthen the power
cable.
The power cable’s green wire is used to receive data from a DGPS re-
ceiver.The white wire is used to transmit data to a DGPS receiver or other
electronic equipment.If you are not connecting the EagleView to another
device, tape the ends of these wires and secure them where they will not
short to one another. See the NMEA/DGPS section in this manual for
more information.
(Note: If your power cable has six wires, tape and secure the extra wires,
also. They are not used on this product.)

ANTENNA
The Eagle View’s antenna can be mounted on any flat surface, provided
you have access behind the surface for the mounting screws.A magnet is
also supplied that can be epoxied to the bottom of the antenna, allowing it
to be used on off-road vehicles. A pole mount adapter lets you mount the
antenna on a pole or swivel mount.
ANTENNA INSTALLATION
Surface Mount
The Eagle View’s antenna can be easily installed on any flat surface that
is at least 90 mm (3 1/2”) wide.Make certain that a clear view of the sky is
available at the selected location. Since the GPS signals travel “line-of-
sight”, nearly anything blocking the antenna can potentially obstruct the
unit from finding a satellite.
Once you’ve determined the mounting location, use the template on page
51 in this manual to drill the holes for the screws. The screws, supplied
with the Eagle View, are 4mm x 30mm. (about 1 1/8” long). Drill 4.75 mm
(3/16”) holes for the mounting screws. If you route the cable through the
mounting surface, you’ll need to drill a 25 mm (1”) hole for the cable.
There is a notch in the antenna housing that allows the cable to pass
through to the outside, instead of routing it through the mounting surface.
5
After drilling the holes, pass the o-ring over the antenna cable and press
it into the groove on the bottom of the antenna housing. Now attach the
antenna to the mounting surface, using 4mm screws and the supplied
lock washers.Route the cable to the EagleView and the antenna installa-
tion is finished.
Magnet Mount
A magnet lets you temporarily mount the antenna on any ferrous metal
surface. (such as a car) To use the magnet, simply epoxy it to the bottom
of the antenna, using the epoxy supplied with your Eagle View. Carefully
follow the instructions on the epoxy package and apply it to the magnet.
Then carefully press the magnet to the bottom of the antenna housing.
After the epoxy cures (in about 30 minutes), the antenna is ready for use.
MAGNET
Pole Mount
The Eagle View’s antenna attaches to the
pole mount adapter with the supplied 4 mm
screws. You can route the antenna cable
through the slot in the side of the antenna,
or pass it down through the pole mount
adapter. A slot next to the threads in the
pole mount adapter places the cable next
to the pole where it can be easily routed
down the pole to the Eagle View. The
threads on the pole mount adapter accept
a standard marine antenna mount.

press the MENU key. The Z-IN and Z-OUT keys zoom-in and zoom-out
your view on the plotter screen. The ENT and EXIT keys let you enter or
erase selections.The PWR key turns the Eagle View on and off.
Note:To prevent an accidental power shutdown, you must hold the PWR
key down for a few seconds in order to turn the unit off.

OPERATION
Turning Power On
To turn the Eagle View on, simply press
the PWR key.A screen similar to the one
at right appears. Read the message on
the screen, then press the EXIT key to
erase it.The EagleView is now ready for
use.
MENUS
Most of the EagleView’s adjustments and features are found on “menus”.
Pressing the MENU key lets you view the menus. Different menus items
are added to the basic list, depending
on which mode (plotter, navigation, or
windows) the unit is in. This gives you
the features that are specific to the mode
you are in, but also has items that are
used on all modes.
Using the arrow keys moves the black
box to highlight different menus on the
list. Pressing the right arrow key selects
the menu.
To erase a menu, press the EXIT key.
FindingYour Position
Cold Start
When the Eagle View is turned on for the very first time, it doesn’t know
where it is, nor what the local time or date is. If you tell it your position,
time, and date, the unit will take much less time to lock-on to the satellites
and give you a fix or position.
However, if you don’t want to push buttons at this time, that’s fine. The
EagleView will lock onto the satellites and give you a position without any
input from you.This is called a “cold-start”.It simply means that the unit is
searching without help for the satellites that are in orbit. A cold-start can
take up to 2 minutes to acquire enough satellite data to determine your
position, although it typically takes less time than that.
8
Once the Eagle View locks on to the satellites and finds your position, it
stores the satellite data in its memory. The next time you use the unit, it
should take much less time to lock on.
To use your Eagle View, first make certain you have a clear view of the
sky, free from any obstructions such as trees, carport, or a covered boat
dock.
Press the PWR key. Read the message
on the screen, then press the EXIT key
to erase the message. A screen similar
to the one at right appears.
This is windows group “A”. Your track
(TRK), or direction of travel is shown in
the upper right corner of this screen.
Bearing to a waypoint (BRG), Course
over ground (CRS), and cross track er-
ror (XTK) are all shown on this screen.You must recall a waypoint to use
the bearing, course, and cross track error windows. As you wait for the
Eagle View to find your position, you’ll see numbers flashing on the dis-
play. Anytime you see flashing numbers, it means the Eagle View does
not have a position! Do not rely on any data that is flashing! When the
numbers stop flashing, the unit has locked on to the satellites and the
position is good.
That’s all you have to do to find your position. All time displays may not be
correct when the cold start method is used. See the initialization section
for details on changing the time.
FindingYour Position
Initialization
A cold-start as described above can take up to 15 minutes to find your
position. A faster method is to initialize
the Eagle View manually.To do this, first
press the PWR key. Next, read the mes-
sages on the screen and press the EXIT
key to erase them.Now press the MENU
key.
Press the up or down arrow keys until
the “GPS SETUP” menu is highlighted
as shown at right. Now press the right
9
arrow key.The screen shown at right ap-
pears.
Using the down arrow key, highlight the
“Initialize GPS Receiver” menu, then
press the right arrow key. The screen
shown below appears.
This is the GPS initialization screen.The
position, altitude, time, and date the
Eagle View is currently using to find the
satellites is shown at the bottom of this
screen. Changing these values to your
local position and time will speed the po-
sition lock.
To change the position, press the right
arrow key while the “EDIT LAT/LON”box
is highlighted.The screen shown at right
appears.
If your latitude is south, press the up or
down arrow key to change it.If it is north,
press the right arrow key to move the
change box to the first number in the latitude.Now press the up arrow key
to increase the number or the down arrow key to decrease it. Once the
first number in the latitude is set, press
the right arrow key once to move to the
next number in the latitude.
Keep pressing the arrow keys until the
latitude and longitude are set to your lo-
cal position.(Note:This position does not
have to be very accurate. If you can get
it within one degree of your actual posi-
tion, that will be fine.)When it’s set, press
the ENT key. The Eagle View accepts
your entry and returns to the GPS setup menu.
10
Now change the local time and date if
they’re incorrect on this screen. (Don’t
worry about altitude.) When everything
is acceptable, press the EXIT key repeat-
edly to return to a mode screen. The
EagleView will instantly use the data you
entered to find the satellites in the sky.
(The unit knows which satellites will be
available at the position, date, and time
you entered. Therefore, it will only look
for those satellites, making the search time much shorter than a cold start
which looks for all of the satellites until it finds three.)
Once the Eagle View finds and locks on to three satellites, it stops flash-
ing the numbers on the display. (Note: Altitude will still flash until the unit
locks on to the fourth satellite. It takes four satellites to determine alti-
tude.)
IMPORTANT!
If the data shown in digital numbers on any screen is flashing, it
means that data is invalid.DO NOT RELY ON ANY NUMBERSTHAT
ARE FLASHING! Usually, this happens when the Eagle View has
lost its lock on the satellites. The data that is flashing was the last
known when the unit lost its navigational capability.
DO NOT NAVIGATE WITH THIS UNIT UNTIL THE DATA STOPS
FLASHING!
POSITION/NAVIGATION DISPLAYS
The EagleView has navigation, plotter, and windows group modes.These
screens were designed to show data that
is used most often.
The three default displays are shown on
the next page. To change displays, sim-
ply press the MODE key. A screen simi-
lar to the one at right appears.Now press
the up or down arrow keys to change
modes. (The windows display is shown
11
NAV-1
PLOT-1
GROUP A
as "GRP" (groups). For example, Group A is the first windows group on
the MODE menu.) Press the right arrow key to see more screens on each
mode.When the desired screen appears, press the EXIT key to clear the
menu.
Note: For a list of abbreviations used on the displays, see the back of this
manual.
Navigation Screens
There are two navigation screens.Nav screen number one shows a graphi-
cal view of your trip, the other screen shows all navigation details in large
digital numbers.You can customize the navigation screens to show differ-
ent data than the ones chosen by Eagle. See the “Customize Screen”
section for more details.
Nav Screen #1
This screen is dominated by a compass rose (See the screen at the top of
the next page.) Your position is in the center of the circle, designated by
an arrow that always points straight up. Your track (direction of travel) is
indicated by an arrow pointing down toward the compass rose at the top
center of the screen. Your track in digital numbers is also shown to the
right of the arrow. On the screen at the top of the next page, the track is
12
348°. The line extending behind the ar-
row in the center shows your track his-
tory, or path you’ve travelled.
Your speed over ground or Ground
Speed (GS) shows in the digital box to
the right of the circle.
The screen looks like this when you’re
not navigating to a waypoint. (See page
35 for information on waypoint naviga-
tion.) If you navigate to a waypoint, the
screen looks like the one below.
The bearing to the destination waypoint
is shown in the upper left corner of the
screen. Bearing is also shown by the
large arrow pointing up to the compass.
The lines on either side of the present
position arrow show the cross track er-
ror range. In other words, (using the
screen above as an example) if the ar-
row crosses the line on either side, you
are .10 miles to the left or right of the
desired course.
A circle depicting your destination ap-
pears on the screen as you approach the
waypoint.
The digital boxes on the screen’s right
side show (from top to bottom) your dis-
tance to go to the destination (DIS), ground speed (GS), estimated time
en route (ETE), and course (CRS).
Course (CRS) is the bearing from your starting location to your destina-
tion. (Remember, course has nothing to do with your present position,
except for your starting location.) It’s shown as a dotted line on the NAV 1
display.This is shown as a reminder so that if you deviate from your origi-
nal course, you can easily return to it. (A “course” is a proposed path over
the ground. A “track” is your actual path over ground.)
13
Nav Screen #2
The navigation screen shows navigation
information in large digital numbers. To
view this screen, press the MODE key,
then press the up arrow key until the
black box surrounds the “NAV 1” label.
Now press the right arrow key. A screen
similar to the one at right appears.Press
the EXIT key to erase the mode menu.
This screen is composed of eight digital display boxes, showing your track
(TRK), and ground speed (GS). The other boxes show navigation data
when a waypoint is recalled, including bearing to the waypoint (BRG),
course (CRS), Altitude (ALT), distance to waypoint (DIS), velocity made
good (VMG), and cross track error (XTK).
Plotter
The plotter lets you see your course and track from a “birds-eye” view. If
you’ve recalled a waypoint, the plotter show your staring location, present
position, and destination. However, you don’t have to recall a waypoint to
use the plotter.
To use the plotter, simply press the
MODE key, then press the up or down
arrow keys until the “Plot” label is
higlighted. Press the EXIT key to erase
the mode menu. A screen similar to the
one at right appears. This is plot-1. The
diamond flashing in the center of the
screen is your present position.The solid
line extending from the diamond is your
track, or path you’ve travelled. The
plotter’s range is shown in the lower left corner of the screen. In this ex-
ample, the plotter’s range is two miles from the left edge of the screen to
the right.
There are two different plotter screens
available. Map screen number 1 shows
by default.Your current position displays
at the center of the screen by a cross
surrounded by a flashing diamond.
To view the other plotter screen, press
the MODE key. Press the up or down ar-
14
row key to move the black box to the "PLOT" label. Now press the right
arrow or left arrow key to select plot 2. This screen (as shown at the
bottom of the previous page) has navigation data displayed on the right
side of the screen in digital numbers.This data is active whenever you’ve
recalled a waypoint. Press the EXIT key to erase the mode menu.
This screen shows ground speed (GS), track (TRK), course (CRS), and
cross track error (XTK).
Use the Z-IN and Z-OUT keys to enlarge or reduce the plotter area.This
changes the plotter’s range.The available ranges are: 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, 0.3,
0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 60, 80, 100,150,
200, 300, 400, 600, 800, 1000, 1500, 2000, 3000, and 4000 miles.
Cursor
Pressing an arrow key while the plotter
is on shows two dotted lines that inter-
sect at your present position.These dot-
ted lines are called a “cursor” and have a
variety of uses.
You can move the cursor around the dis-
play by pressing the arrow keys in the
direction you want it to move. This lets
you view different areas of the plotter,
away from your present position. When
it’s turned on, the zoom-in and zoom-out keys work from the cursor’s
position - not the present position, so you can zoom in on any detail,
anywhere while navigating. The latitude/longitude of the cursor shows in
the box at the top of the plot-1 screen whenever the cursor is activated.
The cursor is also used to place and erase icons and waypoints.
Press the EXIT key to erase the cursor.
PLOTTER OPTIONS
The Eagle View lets you customize the
plotter using the “plotter options” menu.
To use this menu, first press the MENU
key, then use the up or down arrow keys
to highlight the “Plotter Opts” label. Fi-
nally, press the right arrow key. The
screen shown at right appears.
15
RecordTrail On / Off
The line extending from the present po-
sition diamond on the plotter is call the
plot trail. As each dot on the trail is
placed on the screen, it’s also saved in
memory. The plot trail recording can be
turned off, if desired.To turn it off, press
the up or down arrow key until the
“Record Trail” menu is highlighted and
press the left arrow key. Press the EXIT
key to return to the main menu.
Clear Current PlotTrail
To erase the plot trail extending from your present position, highlight the
“ClearPlot Trail” menu, then press the right arrow key. A message box
appears, asking you if you really want to erase the plot trail. Follow the
directions on this message box. The Eagle View returns to the plotter
screen after the message box clears.
Plotter Orientation
Normally, the EagleView shows the plotter with north always at the top of
the screen. This is the way most maps and charts are printed on paper.
This is fine if you’re always travelling due north. Waypoints you see to
your left corresponds to the left side of the plotter, to your right is shown
on the right side of the plotter, and so on.
However, if you travel any other direction, the plotter doesn’t line up with
your view of the world.
To correct this problem, the Eagle View has a track-up mode that rotates
the plotter as you turn. Thus, what you see on the left side of the screen
should always be to your left, and so on. It also has a course-up mode
that keeps the plotter at the same orientation as your initial bearing to the
waypoint.
In the examples shown at right and on
the next page, we're travelling southeast
(about 210° magnetic). In the north-up
view (at right), the present position indi-
cator appears to move towards the lower
left corner of the screen.The anchor icon
shown on the left side of the screen is
actually on our right. North is always at
the top center of this screen.
NORTH-UP MODE
16
In the track-up view at right, the present
position moves straight towards the top
of the display. As you can see, the an-
chor icon is now shown in its proper ori-
entation - to our right.A "N" shows to help
you see which direction is north when the
track-up mode is on. Remember, in the
track-up mode, the screen rotates as you
change direction. It always keeps your
direction of travel (track) heading towards
the top of the screen.
TRACK-UP MODE
In the course-up mode shown at right,
the screen is locked into your original
bearing to the recalled waypoint, regard-
less of your track.
To select the desired mode, highlight the
“ORIENTATION” label on the “Plotter
Options”menu, then press the left or right
arrow keys until the desired mode ap-
pears. Press the EXIT key to leave this menu
COURSE-UP MODE
Plotter Update
The plotter places a dot on your trail as you move. It determines when to
place a dot depending on either time or distance. By default, it places a
dot every three seconds.
To change the update method from time
to distance, highlight the “Update By”
label, then press the right arrow key.This
moves the label from “TIME” to “DIST”.
If you want to change the update time or
distance, simply highlight the desired

SpecialWindows
Although most of the windows used in the Eagle View are self-explana-
tory, there are several windows that have special features or can be used
in unique ways. The following section describes these windows.
Satellite Information Screen (Group A)
This screen shows technical information about the status of the GPS re-
ceiver.The receiver has twelve channels. Data for each channel is shown
as bar graphs on the right side of the display. Every satellite in the con-
stellation has a number assigned to it, called the PRN. The bar graph is
above each satellite’s number.The higher the bar on the graph, the better
the signal is being received from the satellite.
Each satellite is also shown on the circular graph on the left side of the
screen.This shows you not only which satellites are in your area, but also
their direction from your position, and their elevation (distance above the
horizon.) The small inner circle represents 45° above the horizon and the
large outer circle represents the horizon. A satellite is straight above you
when it is at the intersection of the horizontal and vertical lines that pass
through the circles.
The FIX number in the lower left corner
of the screen show the quality of fix. If
the FIX is 9, then it's the best you can
get. A FIX of 1 is the worst.
20
COURSE DEVIATION INDICATOR
(CDI)
The CDI shows your distance to the left
or right of the desired course. You must
recall a waypoint or run a route to use
the CDI. The arrow in the center of the
box shows the direction to the destina-
tion. For example, if you’re travelling
straight towards the destination, the ar-
row points straight up. If you turn to the
right, the arrow points to the left, show-
ing that the destination is to your left.The smaller arrows pointing down on
each side show the CDI’s range.The default is 0.25 mile.The small verti-
cal bar beneath the arrow shows the dis-
tance off course and represents the
course line. If the bar moves to the left,
then you are too far to the right of the
desired course line, and vice-versa. On
the indicator shown at right, we are about
0.1 mile to the right of the desired course.
(Each dotted vertical line represents
0.175 mile.) You can adjust the CDI’s
range through the“ALARMS/CDI”menu.
Using the CDI with a map helps you vi-
sualize your position in relation to the course.The CDI is on several of the
Eagle View’s windows and can be programmed to show on any window
group.

final version. Use this same method to
change the NAV screens.
WAYPOINTS
The EagleView gives you the capability of creating your own database of
locations, called “waypoints”..You can save your present position, cursor
position, or enter a latitude/longitude and save it as a waypoint.The Eagle
View can store up to 250 waypoints.
SavingYour Present Position as a Waypoint (Quick Save Method)
To save your present position, simply press theWPT key twice.The Eagle
View puts your current position into the
first available waypoint number on the
list. A message appears on the display
telling you the waypoint number it just
used.This also momentarily places you
in the database menu. Anytime a data-
base menu is showing, simply press the
WPT key once and the unit will store your
present position in the waypoint list.
Every time you save a waypoint, the date
and time are logged along with the position data. It’s also placed on the
plotter as shown above. In this case, waypoint number one was assigned
when we quick-saved our position.
24
SavingThe Cursor Position as a Waypoint
When the cursor is showing on the plotter and you press the WPT key
twice, the Eagle View puts the cursor’s position into the first available
waypoint number. A message appears on the display telling you the way-
point number it just used. Wait a few seconds and the menu will clear
automatically or press the EXIT key to erase the waypoint menu.
SavingYour Present Position as a Waypoint
(Select Number Method)
The method shown above doesn’t let you

this example, we’re going to store a po-
sition as waypoint number 6.
Now press the down arrow key until the
“WPT Options” label is highlighted. Press
the right arrow key. A screen similar to
the one shown at the top of the next page
appears.
25
Highlight the “Save Position As” label as shown below left and press the
right arrow key when you’re at the location you wish to save. This saves
your present position under the waypoint number you selected on the first
page.
Saving Cursor Position as a Waypoint
(Select Number Method)
To save the cursor position under a specific waypoint number, first posi-
tion the cursor at the desired position. Then follow the previous instruc-
tions for saving your present position as a waypoint using the select num-
ber method. Remember, the method of saving your present position and
the cursor’s position is identical.
Edit Lat/Lon
The Eagle View lets you enter any lati-
tude/longitude using the keyboard and
save it under any waypoint number, from
1 to 250. You can also change any
waypoint’s position using this method.To
do this, first select the waypoint number
that you want to save a position under
from the waypoint menu. In this example,
we’ll use waypoint number 10. Next,
highlight the “WPT-Options” menu and
press the right arrow key.Now highlight the “Edit Lat-Lon”menu and press
the right arrow key. The screen shown above appears. Using the left and
right arrow keys, highlight each number in the position and change it us-
ing the up and down arrow keys. When you’re ready to save this position
and return to the waypoint screen, press the ENT key. The location you
entered shows at the bottom of the screen under the waypoint number
you selected. Note:You can also use this method to change the position
of an existing waypoint.
26
WAYPOINT NAMES
It automatically assigns the waypoint
number as a name when the waypoint
position is saved. You can find a way-
point by highlighting the“Name” label on
the waypoint menu as shown at right.
Now press the right or left arrow keys to
scroll through the saved waypoints.Only
waypoints that have a position will show
using this method.
Edit Name
The Eagle View also lets you assign a name to each waypoint.The name
can have up to eight characters.To name
a waypoint, first select the waypoint num-
ber that you wish to name.(Note:A way-
point must have a position stored before
you can name it.) Now highlight the
“WPT Options” label and press the right
arrow key. Finally, highlight the “EDIT
NAME” label and press the right arrow
key. A screen similar to the one at right
appears.
Press the up or down arrow keys to select the first letter in the name.
Press the right arrow key to move the black box to the next position in the

correct, press the ENT key.
Note:The names in the “From” and “To”
boxes are not the waypoint numbers -
they are the waypoint names. When a
waypoint is moved from one number to
another, the new waypoint number gets the old waypoint name. For ex-
ample, moving waypoint number 2 to waypoint number 10 deposits the
name “WPT 2” in waypoint 10’s name field.
DISTANCE BETWEENWAYPOINTS
The Eagle View can easily give you the
distance between two user waypoints.To
do this, first press the WPT key, high-

Navigating to a Waypoint using the
Plotter
The unique “birds-eye” view used by the
plotter gives you an easy way to navi-
gate to a waypoint.On the screen shown
at right, the diamond with a cross in it is
your present position. The box with the
“S” in it was your starting location when
you recalled the waypoint. The dotted line is called a track line and is the
shortest path from the starting location to the destination. The “D” is the
cursor destination, the number with a box around it is the waypoint. If you
follow the track line, you’ll reach the destination, covering the shortest
distance in the least time.
CAUTION!
The Eagle View does NOT take land features, altitudes, restricted or
prohibited areas, or any other feature into account when it projects the
track line on the screen.Therefore, you must use care when navigating
on the track line and avoid any object that may be in your path to the

To change a unit of measure, first select
the “Set Units” from the “System Setup”
menu. The screen shown at right ap-
pears. Highlight the desired selection,
then press the left or right arrow key.You
can change one or all of the settings on
this page. When you’re finished, press
the EXIT key.
Position Format
To change the position format, highlight
the “Position Format” label on the Units
of Measure menu, (shown above) then
press the right arrow key. A screen simi-
lar to the one at right appears.
The Eagle View can show the position
in degrees, minutes, and thousandths
of a minute (36 28.700') or degrees, min-
utes, seconds, and tenths of a second
(36 28' 40.9". It can also show position in UTM’s (Universal Transverse
Mercator) projection, British, Irish, and Military Grid systems.
UTM’s are marked on USGS topo-
graphic charts. This system divides the
Earth into 60 zones, each approximately
6 degrees wide in longitude. Their unit
of measure is in meters. For example,
30 N means that the position shown to
the left of the “N” is in grid 30, and it’s
north of the equator.
British and Irish grid systems are the
national coordinate system used only in
their respective countries.
Note:In order to use either the British or
Irish grid systems, you must be in the
U.K.
38
The EagleView can use the military grid
reference system (MGRS). It uses two
grid lettering schemes, which are re-
ferred to as standard and alternate
MGRS on the View. Your position and
datum in use determines which one to
use. In general, if the datum you’re us-
ing is valid for your present position, then
use the standard MGRS, otherwise use
the alternate MGRS.
Press the up or down arrow keys to high-
light the desired position format. Press
the EXIT key to both select the format
and erase the position format menu.
NMEA / DGPS
The Eagle View transmits data through the data port in the back of the
unit using NMEA 0183 format, version 1.5 or 2.0. This data is used by
other electronic devices such as marine autopilots for position and steer-
ing information.
DGPS on the other hand, is a data input. DGPS is an acronym for Differ-
ential Global Positioning System.Currently, it relies on a system of ground-
based transmitters that send correction signals to small DGPS receivers.
DGPS gives you more accurate positions than is otherwise possible.
39
All wiring connections to the EagleView are made to it’s power cable.See
the sample wiring diagrams on the next page for general wiring proce-
dures.Read your other product’s owner’s manual for more wiring informa-
tion.
Once the cables are wired, turn the
EagleView on, press the menu key, and
select NMEA / DGPS from the System
Setup menu. A screen similar to the one
at right appears.
NMEA OUTPUT
To turn the NMEA output on, highlight
the “NMEA OUTPUT” menu, then press
the right arrow key. If your other equip-
ment works, then no setup will need to be performed. If your other equip-
ment doesn’t recognize the NMEA data being sent by the EagleView and
the wiring is correct, then you may need to change the NMEA or the serial
communication settings.
Configure NMEA Output
Highlight the “Configure NMEA Output”
menu, then press the right arrow key. A
screen similar to the one at right appears.
NMEA 0183Version
There are two versions of the NMEA
data, 1.5 and 2.0. If your other equip-
ment requires 2.0, press the right arrow
key to select it.
RMC/RMB, GLL, APB, GGA, GSA/GSV Sentences
Some equipment requires different sentence. The Eagle View’s default
setting for these sentences is on. In other words, it automatically sends
these sentences when NMEA is turned on.To turn any of these off, move
the black box to the desired menu and press the left arrow key. Press the
EXIT key when everything on this screen is the way you want it.
DGPS
The EagleView will recognize Starlink® and Magnavox® automatic DGPS
receivers. If you have either one of these receivers, simply highlight the
“Starlink DGPS” or “Magnavox DGPS” on the NMEA / DGPS menu and
press the right arrow key to turn it on. (Note: If you have a Magnavox
DGPS receiver connected, the Eagle View can’t send NMEA data.) With

one at right appears.
These menus select the beacon
receiver’s frequency and bit rate (in bits per second). If you are using a
Starlink receiver, turning the auto mode on causes the Eagle View to
auto-detect the frequency and bit rate.
To change one of these settings, simply highlight the menu item you wish
to change, then press the right or left arrow key until the desired number
appears. Press the EXIT key when you’re finished.
SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS SETUP
To set the data port, move the black box
to the“Setup Com”on the System Setup
menu. Press the right arrow key. The
screen shown at right appears.
Check your DGPS receiver’s manual for
the proper data settings. Highlight the

quit.
42
If you restore the unit to the factory settings, all options such as contrast,
alarms, and other system choices are returned to their default values.
However, no waypoints, routes, or icons are erased.
RESET GROUPS
To return all groups to their factory defaults, highlight the “RESET
GROUPS” label on the “System Setup” menu. Finally, press the right
arrow key. All digital boxes on the navigation plotter screens are reset to
their factory settings.
SYSTEM INFO
The system information screen shows
the release date and the version num-
ber of the code stored inside the Eagle
View. To view this screen, highlight the
“System Info” label on the “System
Setup” menu. Now press the right arrow
key. A screen similar to the one at right
appears.Press the EXIT key when you’re
finished reading this screen.
GPS SETUP
The GPS Setup menu has sub-menus
that affect the GPS receiver.From these
menus you can turn the simulator on or
off, set the update rate, initialize the GPS
receiver, do a self-test on the receiver,
and do a cold-start.(Note:The “Initialize
GPS receiver” is covered in the “Finding
Your Position” section in the front of this
manual.
To view these menu items, press the MENU key, then highlight the “GPS
Setup” menu. Press the right arrow key. The screen shown above ap-
pears.
Execute GPS Cold Start
When the Eagle View is turned on for the first time “out of the box”, it
automatically sends a “cold-start” message to the GPS receiver.You can
also send a cold start message to the receiver at any time.
If the unit can’t lock on to the satellites using the data you’ve given it, or if
it has trouble finding the satellites, perhaps it is using the wrong data.This
can happen if you’ve entered the wrong data by accident when initializing
43
the receiver.For example, if you entered
east longitude instead of west. Or if
you’ve moved a long distance with the
unit turned off.
To send a cold start message to the re-
ceiver, highlight the “Execute GPS Cold
Start” label, then press the right arrow
key. A message appears, asking you if
you really want to do a cold start.Follow
the instructions on this message page.
The unit will begin searching for the satellites. It can take as long as 5
minutes for it to lock on to the necessary satellites. Remember, when it
does, your local time and possibly date can be wrong. Use the method
shown in the initialization section at the front of this manual to change
them, if needed. Once this is done, an internal clock will keep the correct
time, even when the unit is turned off.The GPS system updates this clock
when the unit is locked on to the satellites.
DATUM
Maps and charts are based on a survey of the area that’s covered by the
map or chart.These surveys are called “Datums”. Maps that are created
using different datums will show the same latitude/longitude in slightly
different locations.
All datums are named.The GPS system is based on the WGS-84 datum,
which covers the entire world. Other datums may also cover the entire
world, or just a small portion. By default, the Eagle View shows your posi-
tion on the map using the WGS-84 datum. However, it can show your
position using one of 189 different da-
tums.
To change the datum, first press the
MENU key, then highlight the “GPS
Setup” label and press the right arrow
key. Now highlight the “Select Datum”
label. Finally, press the right arrow key
again.A screen similar to the one at right
appears.
The WGS-84 label is highlighted. To change it, simply press the up or
down arrow keys to highlight the desired datum, then press the ENT key.
This selects the datum and erases the select datum menu.
44
PCF (Position Correction Factor)
Another method used to make your display match a chart or map is called
“PCF” or Position Correction Factor. This unit gives you the capability to
move or offset the position shown on the display to match one on the
chart.The unit will add this offset to all position and navigation displays at
all times.
Remember, the position error on any radio navigation system is very dy-
namic and the PCF offset should never be used in an attempt to cancel
the error.
In general terms, PCF should only be used if your map indicates what the
possible error is. PCF should always be reset to zero when you’re
finished with the chart.
For example, suppose you are stopped at a location that is accurately
marked on a chart.Your unit shows a longitude position that is .244 min-
utes east of the one on the chart and .047 minutes north latitude. Using
the PCF feature, you can make the Eagle View match the chart you’re
using. If you move, the unit will continuously add the change to all posi-
tion, navigation, and mapping displays.This makes it more closely match
the datum used by the chart. For this reason, you should be careful when
entering the PCF offset. It’s saved in memory and doesn’t change when
the unit is turned off. However, resetting
the unit does erase the PCF offset.
To change the PCF offset, first press the
MENU key, then highlight the “GPS
Setup” label and press the right arrow
key. Now highlight the “Set PCF Offset”
label. Finally, press the right arrow key
again.A screen similar to the one at right
appears.
Now enter the correction for your loca-
tion. Remember, this is the difference
between the location shown on the
present position display and the position
shown on the chart. In this example, we
entered 0 degrees, 0.047 minutes north
latitude and 0 degrees, 0.244 minutes
east longitude.That is the difference be-
tween the present position shown by the
Eagle View and the one on our chart.
45
After you’ve entered the latitude/longitude correction, press the ENT key
to accept it.The Eagle View erases the PCF entry screen and returns to
the navigation or mapping screens with the correction factor applied.
POSITION PINING
When using a GPS receiver at extremely low speeds, it can have trouble
determining your course over ground, or direction you’re travelling.This is
due in large part to SA, or selective availability. SA is small inaccuracies
purposefully put into the GPS satellite’s signal by the government. This
cause wide variations in the track display and other navigation displays
when using the unit at slow speeds.
If you’re using the Eagle View without DGPS and stop, the position pin-
ning feature locks the present position indicator on the plotter until you’ve
moved a short distance or exceed a very slow speed. This prevents the
“wandering”plot trail seen when you’re stopped with position pinning turned
off.This also affects the navigational displays.
The easiest way to see the effects of S/A is to stand still with the Eagle
View turned on and watch your plot trail with position pinning turned off.
You’ll see the present position change, speed increase and decrease,
and a random plot trail on the plotter’s screen.
To turn the position pining feature off, press the MENU key, then highlight
the “GPS Setup” label and press the right arrow key. Now highlight the
“Pos Pinning” label. Finally, press the left arrow key.
ALARMS
The EagleView has several alarms.You can set an arrival alarm to sound
a warning tone when you cross a preset distance from a waypoint. For
example, if you have the arrival alarm set to .1 mile, then the alarm will
sound when you come within .1 mile of the recalled waypoint.The course
deviation indicator alarm (CDI) can sound a warning when your track drifts
too far to the right or left of the line to the waypoint. For example, if the
alarm is set to .1 mile, then the alarm will sound if you drift .1 of a mile or
more to the right or left of the line to the
waypoint. The anchor alarm sounds a
warning when you drift outside of a pre-
set radius.Again, using the .1 mile as an
example, if you’re anchored and your
boat moves more than .1 of a mile, the
alarm will sound.
46
To use any of these alarms, first press the MENU key, then select the
“ALARMS/CDI”menu.A screen similar to the one shown at right appears.
Press the up or down arrow key to move the black box to the desired
alarm, then press the right arrow key to turn it on.
To adjust an alarm’s distance, move the black box to the alarm’s “DIST”
menu item, then press the right or left arrow keys to increase or decrease
the alarm’s distance.
When you’re finished adjusting the alarms, press the EXIT key to erase
this menu.
Important Alarm Notes:
Anchor Alarm - Since civilian users don’t receive the accuracy given to
military users, the anchor alarm may sound even when you’re sitting
still. This typically happens when using small (less than .05 mile) an-
chor alarm ranges. If you have a DGPS beacon receiver connected to
the Eagle View, smaller ranges may be usable.
Arrival Alarm - If you set the arrival alarm’s distance to zero (0), and you
run a route (see the routes section), the Eagle View may not show navi-
gation data to the next waypoint, once you arrive at the first one.If you use
the routes feature, never set the arrival alarm to zero.
MESSAGES
On the GPS Alarms menu are the position and DGPS message selec-
tions. When turned on, the position message appears for a few seconds
whenever the EagleView locks onto the satellites and shows a position.It
also appears when the unit loses the lock onto the satellites and cannot
navigate. Pressing the EXIT key erases these messages.
The DGPS message appears whenever the unit begins or stops using
DGPS data to help determine your position.
The default setting for these messages is “on”.To turn either message off,
select the “GPS Alarms” menu from the main menu, then move the black
box to the desired message and press the left arrow key. Press the EXIT
key to erase this screen.
BACKLIGHT
The AirMap’s display and keyboard have lights that can be turned on for
night use. To turn the lights on, simply press the PWR key. To turn them
off, press the PWR key again.
47
SIMULATOR
A simulator is built into the Eagle View that has several options. You can
use nearly all of the unit’s features - even save and recall waypoints.This
is useful for trip planning.
To use the simulator, press the MENU
key, then press the up or down arrow
keys until the “Simulator Setup” menu is
surrounded by the black box.Now press
the right arrow key.The screen shown at
right appears.
If you simply press the right arrow key,
turning the simulator on, the Eagle View
will start from your present position and follow a track of 355° at 100 miles
per hour.
To change either the track or speed, highlight the one you want to change,
then press the right or left arrow key. When the numbers are correct,
press the EXIT key.
Starting Position
Normally, the starting position for the
simulator is your present position. If you
want to change the starting position,
highlight the “Set Starting Waypoint” la-
bel on the Simulator Setup menu, then
press the right arrow key. The screen
shown at right appears.
You can select any waypoint as the
simulator’s starting point. Select the starting point by pressing the right
arrow key on the “WPT#” label until the desired starting waypoint number
appears. Now highlight the “Start At” label and press the right arrow key.
The Eagle View returns to the Simulator Setup menu.
Use Arrow Keys to Steer
This option lets you change both the
course and speed on the screen as the
simulator is running.To do this, highlight
the “User Arrows to Steer” label on the
Simulator Setup screen, then press the
right arrow key.The screen shown at right
appears.Use the up and down arrow keys
48
to increase or decrease the speed. Use the right and left arrow keys to
change the track. Press the EXIT key to erase these menus.
When you’re finished changing the track and speed, press the EXIT key
to erase the menus.
To turn the simulator off, press the MENU key, then move the black box to
the “Simulator Setup” label. Finally, press the left arrow key.
Note:Your plot trail will be erased when you turn the simulator on or off.
