INSTALLATION
The AccuMap 12 operates from six AA batteries or from 6 to 35 volts DC.
An optional cigarette lighter adapter is available (model CA-1) to plug into
a vehicle’s electrical system. The AccuMap 12 automatically switches to
external power when it’s plugged into the unit (provided that the external
power is a higher voltage than the batteries.) If, for any reason, the exter-
nal power fails, the unit will automatically switch to the batteries. The
AccuMap 12 does not require batteries when the external power is in use,
however they make a good backup in case of power failure. An optional
rechargeable battery pack, (model RBP-E) has a nickle-metal hydride
battery and charger built into a pack that’s almost identical to the alkaline
battery pack that slides onto the bottom of the AccuMap 12.
An external antenna kit is also available (model PA-2) that allows the re-
movable antenna to be mounted on a suction cup bracket up to four feet
away from the GPS receiver.
tions. The AccuMap 12 takes these corrections 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 AccuMap 12 gives you out-
standing position and navigation information.
Please sit down with the unit and this manual and familiarize yourself with
them before using this unit in the “real world”. A simulator is built in, which
lets you practice with the receiver.
