Open your eyes to Wide-Screen Navigation with the New Chart Master™ 169CS Color GPS/Chartplotter.
Interphase Technologies, Inc. has launched its Chart Master™ 169CS, an
affordable, easy-to-use GPS/chart plotter engineered to deliver clear,
big-picture charting capabilities and cutting-edge navigation features.
At first glance, it’s easy to see what sets the new 169CS apart: A
panoramic color LCD display with a 16:9 aspect ratio like
high-end digital TVs and computer monitors. This not only provides a larger
display that’s easier to view and navigate by, it allows for useful and readable
split-screen displays of charts alongside navigation data screens, depth
information (with a “Smart” transducer or other NMEA source input) and other
data. Now Available
: Black Box Fishfinder
The Chart Master 169CS features a powerful 200 MHz RISC processor that
provides for advanced navigation features and ultra-fast redraw of the 3.41”H X
6.1”W TFT screen. With 256 colors and full sunlight viewability, the Chart
Master 169CS gives boaters all the advantages of C-MAP NT+ electronic charts in
any light conditions. This precision navigation tool provides easy access to
advanced C-MAP NT+ charting capabilities, including the programmable,
forward-looking Guardian Technology™ depth alarm designed to keep you off the
rocks and out of trouble. At the push of a button, navigators can also view port
services, tidal/current information along their route, get automatic information
about on-screen objects, or even receive real-time weather data and predictions
(with addition of C-Forecast™).
The Chart Master 169CS also features a 12-channel WAAS GPS antenna/
receiver for pinpoint accuracy anywhere in the world (typically under 3 meters).
Navigators will appreciate this when navigating a tricky channel, running in
unfamiliar waters, finding a secret dive spot or “setting up” to fish a small
wreck or reef.
With 16MB of internal memory, the Chart Master 169CS can store up to
500 waypoints, 25 routes of
up to 50 waypoints each and more than 5,000 track points using seven
different colors – while its non-volatile memory guards against the loss of your
favorite anchorages, dive spots or fishing holes. For easy integration into a
full bridge system, the Chart Master 169CS has an NMEA Autopilot Interface and a
second NMEA0183 interface port. It also features a USB interface for future
accessories or easy software upgrades.
INTERPHASE CHART MASTER™ V6 and V6I.
Combines Amazing Speed, Brilliant Sunlight Readable Color Screen
& Advanced Features
Interphase is
proud to Introduce its all new Chart Mastera V6 Series - high performance color
GPS/chart plotters that offers forward-thinking engineering and features
normally associated with high-priced, large commercial grade machines. The Chart
Master V6i is completely self-contained with an internal GPS antenna, and the V6
comes with an external active antenna.
One of the first things a boater
will notice about the Chart Master V6 series is their vertically oriented
high-definition (234x320 pixel) six-inch super-bright color LCD displays. They
provide clear visibility even in full sunlight, and the Chart Master V6I, with
it's built-in GPS antenna is a great choice for boats with open cockpits, center
consoles and flying bridges and can serve well as a back-up unit on larger
vessels.
It's the state-of-the-art engineering inside, however, where
the Chart Master V6 series really shines. Both the models combine a new detailed
base map of the world, a 200 Mhz super-fast RISC based processor for lightening
fast zooms and pans with the outstanding accuracy of 12-channel satellite
differential (WAAS) reception. And both sport an easy-to-use, joy-stick pointing
device to control the on-screen cursor and select among the many advanced
features.
