HDG (Heading) – Shows heading from a External Flux Gate Compass when connected.

HDOP/VDOP – Horizontal/Vertical Dilution of Precision. It is a parameter indicating the precision of the positioning system (GPS). The smaller the HDOP/VDOP value, the more accurately the position fix is provided.

HEIGHT – The current tide height referred to the vertical cursor. HIGH WATER – The maximum level of the tide height in 24 hours. LOW WATER – The minimum level of the tide height in 24 hours.

Position Request – Marine DSC VHF Function of transmitting a GPS position to another Marine DSC VHF. When GPS Chart Plotter is connected to STANDARD HORIZON GPS the position of another vessel is shown on the Chart page.

SPEED – Shows the Speed Thru the Water when a Digital Speed Log is connected. SOG (Speed Over Ground) – The speed you vessel is travelling at.

STEER – Heading to steer to destination Waypoint. TIME – Shows the current time received by the GPS.

TRIP LOG – Shows the distance the vessel has travelled since the trip log was reset.

TRU Wind DIR SPD (True Wind Direction) – Shows the True Wind Direction when an external wind instrument with NMEA is connected.

TRU Wind SPD (True Wind Speed) – Shows the True Wind Speed when an external wind instrument with NMEA is connected.

TTG (Time To Go) – Shows time to go to reach a Destination point.

UNITS

Nm Nautical Mile (1 NM = 1.15 Sm or 1.85Km) Sm Statue Mile (1Sm = 0.87Nm or 1.61Km)

Km Kilometer (1 Kilometer = 0062 Sm or 0.54Nm) FT Feet. (1 Foot = 0.167 Fathoms or 0.305 Meters) FA Fathom (1 Fathom = 6 Feet or 1.83 Meters)

Mt Meter (1 Meter = 3.28 Feet or 0.55 Fathoms) Kts Knot (1 Knot = 1.15 MPH or 1.85 KPH)

MPH Miles Per Hour (1 MPH = 0.87 Knots or 1.61 KPH) Kmh Kilometer Per Hour (1 KPH = 0.54 Knots or 0.62 MPH)

VMG – It is the destination closing Velocity. The VMG is calculated using the current speed of the vessel (SOG) and the difference between the current vessel course and the bearing to the Destination.

WAAS 2D/3D – The GPS is receiving a 2D or 3D position and the correction from the WAAS Satellite. WAAS consists of approximately 25 ground reference stations positioned across the United States that monitor GPS satellite data. Two master stations, located on either coast, collect data from the reference stations and create a GPS correction message. This correction accounts for GPS satellite orbit and clock drift plus signal delays caused by the atmosphere and ionosphere. The corrected differential message is then broadcast through one of two geostationary satellites, or satellites with a fixed position over the equator. The information is compatible with the basic GPS signal structure, which means any WAAS- enabled GPS receiver can read the signal.

CPF180I, CPF300I specifications

The Standard Horizon CPF300i and CPF180i are two advanced marine chart plotters designed to enhance the navigation experience for both recreational and professional boaters. These units combine cutting-edge technology with user-friendly features, making them a popular choice among marine enthusiasts.

The Standard Horizon CPF300i is equipped with a bright 10.4-inch display that ensures excellent visibility even in direct sunlight. It features a high-resolution color screen that presents detailed cartographic information clearly. The unit integrates advanced GPS technology, providing precise positioning that is crucial for navigating complex waterways. Additionally, it comes with built-in Wi-Fi, enabling users to share their data and download updates easily.

One key feature of the CPF300i is its capability to support multiple chart formats, including C-MAP and Navionics. This flexibility allows users to select the cartography that best suits their needs, ensuring they have access to the most up-to-date navigational information available. The CPF300i also supports radar overlay and fish finder integration, making it an excellent tool for fishing and safe navigation in various conditions.

On the other hand, the CPF180i offers a slightly smaller 7-inch display but does not compromise on functionality. This model is perfect for smaller vessels, maintaining a compact form factor while delivering essential navigational features. The CPF180i also incorporates GPS functionality, ensuring accurate positioning and helping mariners stay on course. Its intuitive user interface allows for easy operation, making it accessible even to less experienced users.

Both models feature a built-in AIS (Automatic Identification System) that increases safety by displaying the positions of nearby vessels. The AIS integration allows users to monitor traffic in busy waterways and avoid potential collisions. Additionally, both units support NMEA 2000 connectivity, enabling integration with other onboard systems such as engine data and autopilot control.

In summary, the Standard Horizon CPF300i and CPF180i are equipped with high-resolution displays, robust GPS technology, and multiple chart support. The CPF300i, with its larger screen and advanced features, is ideal for those needing comprehensive navigation solutions, while the CPF180i caters to users looking for a compact and efficient unit. Together, they represent a significant advancement in marine navigation technology, providing boaters with the tools they need to enhance their on-water experience.
