User Manual MAP 330/MAP 330M This User Manual provides the instructions for using the Magellan MAP 330 and the Magellan MAP 330M GPS receivers. Any reference to the MAP 330 in this User Manual applies to both receivers. Those areas that apply only to the MAP 330M will be noted. WARNINGS FOR SAFETY REASONS, THE DRIVER SHOULD NOT USE THIS DEVICE IN A VEHICLE WHILE IN MOTION TO ASSIST THE DRIVER TO NAVIGATE. Please do not try and change any settings on the MAP 330 while driving. Come to a complete stop or have your passenger make any changes. Taking your eyes off the road is dangerous and can result in an accident in which you or others could be injured. USE GOOD JUDGEMENT This product is an excellent navigation aid, but does not replace the need for careful orienteering and good judgement. Never rely solely on one device for navigating. USE CARE The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the U.S. Government, which is solely responsible for the accuracy and maintenance of GPS. The accuracy of position fixes can be affected by the periodic adjustments to GPS satellites made by the U.S. Government and is subject to change in accordance with the Department of Defense civil GPS user policy and the Federal Radionavigation Plan. Accuracy can also be affected by poor satellite geometry. USE PROPER ACCESSORIES Use only Magellan cables and antennas; the use of non-Magellan cables and antennas may severely degrade performance or damage the receiver, and will void the warranty.

Introduction Welcome and congratulations on your purchase of the Magellan MAP 330 GPS receiver. The MAP 330 has all the features that a sailor, fisherman, hiker, hunter, or any person involved with outdoor recreational activities has come to expect from a Magellan GPS receiver. In addition to these features, the MAP 330 offers the ability to display your location on detailed city maps providing you with a complete navigation tool that will last you for years to come. The MAP 330M has all the features of the MAP 330, and has navaids (fixed navaids, buoys, lighthouses and marinas) preloaded into the receiver's database. Magellan has been a leader in the hand-held GPS market since introducing the world's first commercial, hand-held GPS receiver in 1989. Since that time Magellan has continued to equip the outdoorsman and consumer markets with navigational receivers, all the way from the first GPS receiver for under $100 to automotive receivers with turn-by-turn routing capabilities. Before you begin, make sure that your package includes all of the items listed on the side panel of the box. If any of these items are missing or damaged, please contact Magellan Corporation at (866) 737-8604 for replacement items. This User Manual is divided into six chapters; Introduction, Setting Up the MAP 330, Basic Operation, Reference Guide, Frequently Asked Questions, and Appendix. Each of these chapters will be explained briefly so you can tell which ones are right for you. A glossary and index are provided after the Appendix as well. Setting Up the MAP 330: This chapter will show you how to prepare the MAP 330 for use. Instructions will include how to install the batteries, how to connect the wrist strap and how to initialize the MAP 330. Basic Operation: This chapter provides you with step-by-step instructions for using the basic functions of the MAP 330. This chapter will explain getting a position fix, viewing the Map screen, saving a waypoint and using a GOTO. Knowing these four basic steps will enable you to use the MAP 330 for most things you will want to do. Magellan MAP 330 GPS Receiver 1 Introduction Reference Guide: Here you will find step-by-step instructions for all of the features found in the MAP 330. This chapter is set up in a way that you can quickly and easily find the feature you are looking for. Frequently Asked Questions: This chapter is aimed at answering some of the more basic questions that you may have about your MAP 330, the global positioning system (GPS) and using the MAP 330 to its fullest. Experienced GPS users will probably not find any new information in this chapter but new GPS users may find many of their questions answered here. Appendix: Sections containing information about connecting your MAP 330 to external devices, accessories, troubleshooting and specifications can be found in the Appendix. Glossary: A glossary is provided explaining some of the terms and abbreviations found in the MAP 330 and this manual that may not be familiar to all users. It's time to begin using your MAP 330. Don't be overwhelmed with the size of the manual as we have tried to give enough information for the beginning user as well as provide the experienced users with the specifications and features that they are looking for. The most important thing to us is to be sure that you are completely satisfied with your MAP 330 and the accompanying documentation. If you have any ideas, suggestions or even a complaint, please pass them along to us through our web site (www.magellangps.com) or by mail. 2 Magellan MAP 330 GPS Receiver Setting Up the MAP 330 Setting Up the MAP 330 Setting up the MAP 330 is a simple three-step process: installing the batteries, attaching the wrist strap and initializing the MAP 330. The MAP 330 uses two AA batteries that are installed from the back through the battery cover. You can expect to get up to 10 hours of usage on two AA batteries with the backlight turned off. To remove the battery cover, turn the ring of the battery door screw counterclockwise until the battery cover can be removed. Insert the new batteries as shown, making sure that the batteries are installed with the correct polarity. Replace the cover and tighten the battery door screw by turning it clockwise until the battery door is securely in place. Avoid overtightening the battery door screw. + + - How much time do I have to replace the batteries? Any waypoints or routes you have created are stored in permanent memory and should not be lost for months with the batteries removed. Present position and time data is not stored in permanent memory but will be held in memory for at least two hours without batteries installed. Always turn the MAP 330 off before removing the batteries or turning off external power. Failure to do so can cause loss or corruption of data. Magellan MAP 330 GPS Receiver 3 Setting Up the MAP 330 The wrist strap attaches to the ring on the screw for the battery door cover. The picture below shows how the wrist strap should be attached. 4 Magellan MAP 330 GPS Receiver Setting Up the MAP 330 Setting Up the MAP 330 The final step in setting up the MAP 330 is to initialize the receiver for firsttime use. This will help your MAP 330 begin computing your position in the fastest manner possible. The reason for initialization is to speed up the process for computing the first position fix when the MAP 330 has no last position computed in memory (i.e., when the MAP 330 is brand new or memory has been cleared). This gives the MAP 330 an approximate indication of where it is located so it can use its satellite almanac (stored in permanent memory) to estimate what satellites are overhead and which ones it should be looking for. Follow these instructions to initialize the MAP 330. Press The MAP 330 turns on and displays the start-up screen and a warning screen. Start-up Screen Press ENTER Warning Screen (You have 10 seconds to press ENTER or the MAP 330 will shut off.) Magellan MAP 330 GPS Receiver 5 Setting Up the MAP 330 The MAP 330 displays a message box indicating that the receiver needs to be initialized. Press ENTER Use the Press ENTER to highlight your general region. Use the Press ENTER to highlight your area. . The cursor appears in the time field, waiting for you to input your local time. Set your local time using the arrow keys. Be sure that you set the AM/PM indicator. Note: After the MAP 330 starts to pick up signals from any satellite, it will automatically update the time using the satellite's atomic clock. 6 Magellan MAP 330 GPS Receiver Setting Up the MAP 330 Setting Up the MAP 330 To use the arrow keys to edit a field, follow the simple diagram below. Editing moves the cursor block left or right. Pressing right arrow results in: increments the value up or down. Pressing up arrow results in: When the time is correct, press ENTER . The last piece of information needed is the date. Using the arrow keys, enter the present date. Press ENTER . All the information that the MAP 330 needs to speed up the process of computing its first fix has been entered and the Done button is highlighted. To complete the initialization process, press ENTER . Magellan MAP 330 GPS Receiver 7 Setting Up the MAP 330 The Sat Status screen is displayed and the MAP 330 is now ready to be used.
