The
GPSMAP 276C is an all-in-one, versatile, colour chartplotter and
automobile navigator ? perfect for land or water. This portable
GPS navigator features a 256-color TFT display that's easy to read
in bright sun along with a built-in basemap and auto routing to
provide you with turn-by-turn directions to the marina for a day
of boating.
On
water, the GPSMAP 276C is a dependable, colour chartplotter with
a built-in Autoroute basemap enhanced by Garmin's marine cartography.
It accepts pre-programmed or user programmed data cards with MapSource®
BlueChart® for offshore detail.
In
addition, the GPSMAP 276C supports external NMEA sources for water
depth, water temperature, and water speed through two serial interfaces.
The unit also features a new Course Deviation Indicator (CDI) ?
an advanced navigation tool commonly found on aircraft, but equally
practical in the marine environment. The CDI quickly indicates if
a boat has veered off course.
On
land, the GPSMAP 276C?s Pacific Autoroute basemap features interstates
and major highways. With an optional automotive kit and MapSource
City Navigator Australia software, drivers can receive voice-prompted
turn-by-turn directions to addresses and points of interest throughout
Australia.
For
map transfer or software updates, the GPSMAP 276C features a fast
USB-PC interface. The unit is also powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion
battery pack, or a standard 240 Volt AC plugpack.
