1.1 FEATURES
This electronic charting system integrates the remarkable accuracy of a GPS
receiver with a detailed moving map into a single, easy-to-use, computerized
electronic map system. Designed as a sophisticated navigation information cen-
ter, the features of the EKP-IV allow the user to Track information and navi-
gate to points of interest.
Equipped with C-MAP NT + cartography, the EKP-IV system can be used
either with a C-MAP NT + Compact Flash (data card) or as a Track plotter
using the internal background map.
The EKP-IV can be connected to an external GPS or position receiver via a
data cable providing an NMEA0183 data string. Connections to an external
receiver, device or an external antenna are made quickly and easily while in the
cockpit (see Chapter 15).
The EKP-IV contains built-in cartography with coastlines, names of countries,
major cities, highways, lakes and rivers. Additional street, lake and river detail,
which enhances the internal data, can be obtained with C-MAP Aviation’s
regional terrestrial library.
When the package containing the EKP-IV is first opened, please check it for
the following contents (if any parts are missing contact the dealer where you
purchased the EKP-IV):
• C-MAP Navdata Compact Flash
• Antenna and 5 meter cable with SMB connector
