C. GP36 “Sensor Mode” –
When the installation requires a DGPS Sensor it is possible to
make a small hardware modification to the GP36 Display to allow a NavNet Display to provide
power to the GP36. This modification locks the GP36 power switch “On”.
In Sensor Mode, the GP36 Display never needs to be accessed and it can be treated as a
DGPS Sensor only. The GP36 Display should be considered as a “Black Box Sensor”.
-For further information on this modification contact the Furuno Technical Department.
-Furuno USA will modify any GP36 to Sensor Mode “Free of Charge” when any FUSA Dealer
specifies “SENSOR MODE” operation for a GP36 order. Please provide this request to the
FUSA Camas/Denton Order Service Departments.
NOTE: Please turn the backlighting illumination to the “OFF” position on the Sensor Mode GP36
when the display is hidden away and not viewed.
-The GP36 may also be powered from a breaker in Sensor Mode for added redundancy.
