Appendix

Power

Source: Two 1.5 volt AA batteries, USB power, 12 V Adapter Cable, or up to 36 VDC external power

Battery Life: Up to 18 hours (typical use)*

*Alkaline batteries lose a significant amount of their capacity as the temperature decreases. Use Lithium batteries when operating the GPSMAP 76Cx in below-freezing conditions. Extensive use of screen backlighting, electronic compass, and audible tones significantly reduce battery life.

Accuracy

GPS: <10 meters (33 feet) 95% typical*

*Subject to accuracy degradation to 100 m 2DRMS under the U.S. DoD imposed Selective Availability (SA) Program when activated.

DGPS: 3-5 meters (10-16 feet) 95% typical*

*WAAS accuracy in North America.

Velocity: 0.05 meter/sec steady state

Interfaces: NMEA 0183 version 2.3, and RS-232 and USB for PC interface

Data Storage Life: Indefinite: no memory battery required

Map Storage: Dependant on the formatted capacity of the microSD Digital Card

(A small portion of the card capacity has been used in formatting the card for use.)
