15.8 POSITION INPUT
This selection allows the Latitude/Longitude of your vessel to be manually
entered so DSC Distress or a Position Report call will contain position infor-
mation. This feature maybe useful when the GX1700E is located in an area
where GPS reception is limited. Refer to section "9.10 MANUAL INPUTTING
A GPS POSITION ( LAT/LON ) " for setting.
15.9 GPS SELECTION
This selection allows the GX1700E to:
a. use the internal GPS to compute and display position information
(default setting).
b. use the NMEA output of Standard Horizon GPS Antenna (Q7000619A)
to input position information into the GX1700E when the GPS
reception is limited, such as the flush mounting of the GX1700E. Refer
to page 15 for connections. This is a useful feature when the GX1700E
is located in an area where GPS reception is limited.
When using an external GPS antenna or Chart plotter to input
position data, turn off the GPS receiver, refer to section "15.1 UNIT
