YAESU - GPS - CP175


PERFORMANCE AND SCREEN RESOLUTION!
The CP175C GPS Chart Plotter from STANDARD HORIZON delivers a unique combination of features and performance at a price that is simply unmatched. Incorporating the latest in receiver and screen technologies, the CP175C establishes a new standard for Chart Plotter performance in even the most demanding conditions. SUPERIOR Chart Navigation Highway Celestial GPS Status. Now with enhanced base map and faster processor plus high speed GPS engine.

Designed For C-Map MAX, NT or NT+ Cartography
The CP175C is compatible to the latest C-Map MAX cartography, which has rattled off an amazing "Five for Five" winning streak that dates back to 1999 by the NMEA (National Marine Electronics Association) for "BEST ELECTRONIC CARTOGRAPHY".

Let the Sun Shine
Nothing beats the detail and impact of a colour display. However until recently boaters have been unable to use their colour electronics in an installation that would experience direct sunlight. The CP175C features cutting edge Transreflective screen technology. The result is a display that delivers uncompromised bright, vivid colour mapping detail in the toughest application, direct sunlight. The CP175C from STANDARD HORIZON says, "Let The Sun Shine". The CP175C features a built-in world map that allows quick seamless panning and zooming with or without cartridges loaded. Want superior mapping detail, simply load up to two C-MAP cartridges in the front loading waterproof door on the CP175C. Finally, in order to make accessing data on the chart easier STANDARD HORIZON developed a unique cursor control system called "ShuttlePoint". "ShuttlePoint"cursor control allows the user to move the cursor directly to any point on the screen of the CP175C even when the vessel is underway.

EGNOS (European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service)
Also known as WAAS (Wide Area Augmentation System).A 12-channel WAAS/EGNOS receiver is the heart of the CP175C. WAAS/EGNOS, the latest receiver technology improves the accuracy and integrity of basic GPS signals. WAAS/EGNOS delivers pinpoint repeatable accuracy to within 3 meters of a vessel's actual position. This new technology allows every sailor to obtain the accuracy of a Differential GPS without the additional expense. The WAAS/EGNOS system currently covers the United States, Canada, Mexico, parts of northern South America plus the United Kingdom and European Continent.

Unique VHF Distress and Position Request Display
Using Digital Selective Calling (DSC), the CP175C can decode, display and log either a VHF Distress or Position Request call when input is received from a DSC equipped radio that is capable of sharing the data. Connect the CP175C to STANDARD HORIZON's VM-3500E DSC VHF, and the plotter will alert you with a message whenever a Distress or Position Call is received. Should the operator select to view the received position, the plotter automatically zooms out to show both senders vessel and users vessel position directly on the chart. A second prompt asks the user whether they would like to navigate to the received vessel position, while alerting the operator to possible obstructions. Select to create a route to the received vessel position and the CP175C automatically creates a route whilst immediately calculating important navigation data such as Distance To Waypoint and Time To Go. Connect either Chart Plotter to an autopilot and you have an integrated navigation system that eliminates the requirement for coordinate input.

A Unique Combination of Features for the CP175C

3-Year Warranty - DARE TO COMPARE
The CP155C was designed from the ground up to take the punishment of the marine environment and is "BACKED BY A 3 YEAR WATERPROOF WARRANTY!" Dare to compare this warranty to other marine Chart Plotters.
