FCC RF Exposure Information

Warning! Read this information before using this radio.

In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States with its

action in Report and Order FCC 96-326 adopted an updated safety standard for human

exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters.

Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standard previously set by both U.S. and

international standards bodies. The design of the radio complies with the FCC guidelines and

these international standards.

The MYSTIC is waterproof only when both the antenna and the battery are

properly attached.

Do not operate the transmitter of any radio equipment unless all Radio Frequency

(RF) connectors are secure and any open connectors are properly terminated.

Do not operate the transmitter of any radio equipment near electrical blasting caps

or in an explosive atmosphere.

Never allow children to operate any transmitter-equipped radio equipment without

proper supervision.

Have your radio equipment serviced by a qualified technician.

Do not operate the transmitter of any radio equipment with the antenna touching or

close to the eyes, face, or exposed body parts.

Do not use the radio with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into

contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please contact your local dealer for

a replacement antenna.

Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas,

modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damage the radio, or result

in violation of FCC regulations.

Body-worn Operation

This device was tested for typical body-worn operations using the supplied belt-clip, which

typically provides a space from the body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF

exposure requirements, body-worn operations are restricted to the supplied belt-clip.

For hand-held operation, the radio should be held 1 inch from the user's face. The use of

accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may not comply with FCC RF exposure

requirements and should be avoided. For more information about RF exposure, please visit

the FCC website at www.fcc.gov.

When using an external speaker microphone, USE ONLY THE UNIDEN MODEL

HHVTA07 (black) or HHVTAW07 (white). Use of any other accessory for this

purpose may invalidate your authority to operate this device.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert

the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance

Lithium Ion Battery Pack Warning

Avoid exposing the Lithium Ion battery, attached or unattached to the

radio, in direct sunshine, heated cars, or in areas with temperatures below

-20° C (-4° F) or above +60° C (+140° F). Exposing the chemicals

contained within the battery pack to temperatures above +60° C (+140° F)

may cause the battery to rupture, fail, or reduce performance.

In case of exposure to cell contents, wash the affected area thoroughly,

and seek medical attention.

Squelch

The SQUELCH (SQ) control allows you to set the “threshold” at which

signals can be heard. This allows you to determine how strong a signal

must be before it “breaks squelch”. That is, how strong it must be before

you can hear it. This keeps static and unwanted weak or distant signals

from breaking into your desired conversations.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Mystic OM.book Page 18 Wednesday, October 22, 2003 8:59 PM

To set the Squelch level:

Turn SQ fully clockwise. This raises the

“Squelch Gate” so high that only very strong

signals can get through.

Turn SQ fully counterclockwise until you hear

a hiss. This lowers the “Squelch Gate” so that

everything gets through - noise, weak signals,

and strong signals.

Turn SQ back clockwise just until the hiss

stops. Now the “Squelch Gate” allows only

signals of the desired strength through.

To listen to a weak or distant station, turn the

knob counterclockwise. If reception is poor,

turn it clockwise to cut out weak transmis-

sions.

Note:

If the squelch control is adjusted so you continually hear a

hissing sound, the unit will not scan properly.

Using the MYSTIC keys

Your MYSTIC has 11 keys and a four-way cursor. Of the 11 keys, 6 are

dual-function. That is, you press that key to access one function, and you

press and hold that key to access another.

Note:

Example:Press [WX/ALERT] to change from the VHF Channels

to the Weather Channels. Press and hold [WX/ALERT] to set

the Weather Alert Mode.

The cursor keys (STWX) are used to: change Channels, alternate

Navigation screens, and select items in the Menu screens.

The [MENU] key is used to access the Menu screen. When you are at the

Menu screen, use ST to select the next Menu, and press [ENTER].

That will take you to the next Menu, or the next selection to modify. To

stop from selecting any item, press [ESC].

GPS Basic Operations

Position Fix

Note:

If this is the first time you are using the MYSTIC in GPS mode,

you must set up the GPS parameters. See the GPS Setup

Section (page 55) for the correct procedure.

Once the MYSTIC has been set up, you should automatically get a

position fix when you turn the radio on.

Because the MYSTIC gets the information it needs from satellites orbiting

the earth, the radio needs to have a relatively unobstructed view of the

sky. This allows the MYSTIC to choose from all satellites currently

available.

If the view of the sky is poor due to large cliffs, mooring roofs, buildings,

heavy foliage or other obstructions, the satellite signals can be blocked

and the GPS receiver may take longer to compute a position fix.

You will observe the acquisition of the satellites and other important

information on the default Channel and Navigation Screen that appears

after the power-up sequence.

GPS information

Customizable

data fields

The GPS Information display will display the current Date, and indicate the

progress of acquiring the satellites necessary to achieve a Position Fix.

The display will read Search - 1st sat, Search - 2nd sat, and

Search - 3rd sat.

Once the three satellites have been acquired, the display alternate

between two readouts:

The current Date and EPE (Estimated Position Error, in feet)

Averaging and a numeric value. This means the MYSTIC is comput-

ing fixes. the speed is near 0.0, so the position is being averaged.

You can see the satellites being used and their signal strength on the

Satellite Status screen (described in Navigational Screens below).

Navigational Screens

The MYSTIC has nine navigation screens: Map screen, Compass screen,

Large Data screen, two Position screens, Road screen, Data screen and

Speedometer screen. There is also a Satellite Status screen which

enables you to view how well the MYSTIC is receiving satellite

information. These screens will be described briefly here. More detailed

information on the different screens can be found in the GPS Advanced

Operation Section (page 96).

Map Screen

The Map screen has two modes, Position or Cursor.

Position Mode - In the position mode, your

present position is indicated by the large

arrow icon in the center of the display. If

you are moving, the arrow will point in the

direction you are heading. At the bottom of

the screen is the scale for the map

displayed and two data fields that can be

customized, or turned off, depending upon

your needs.

The present position icon will change to an

hourglass when the MYSTIC is unable to

compute a position fix due to poor signal

reception.

Accessing the Navigation Screens

The [ESC] key are used to step through the various navigation screens. If

you are viewing one of the Navigation screens, pressing [ESC] will take

you to the previous Navigation screen. If you are not viewing one of the

Navigation screens, pressing [ESC] will return you to the last Navigation

Waypoints

A waypoint is any position on the globe that you have saved into memory.

The act of saving the waypoint is commonly called “Marking.” So when

references are made to marking a waypoint, that simply means to save a

position on the globe into memory.

There are a number of ways you can save a waypoint. The most common

are: saving your present position, entering the coordinates of a position or

saving the position of the cursor while viewing the Map screen. These

waypoints can then later be used to create routes or as the destination of

a GOTO. (A GOTO is a single leg route that is defined as a route from

your present position to any waypoint. You are here and you want to

GOTO there.)

Saving a Waypoint

Saving Your Present Position as a

Waypoint - From any screen, press and

hold [GOTO] for 2 seconds and the Mark

screen is displayed. The “Save” button is

highlighted and you can press [ENTER] to

save the waypoint using the default name

and icon. This will save your present

position using a default name (WPTxxx)

into memory, where xxx is a sequential

number.

Mystic OM.book Page 51 Wednesday, October 22, 2003 8:59 PM

To give more meaning to your waypoints, you can change the name

and icon for each one. You can also add a text message to a waypoint

These procedures are covered in the GPS Advanced Operations

Section (page 96).

There is a limit to the number of waypoints you can store in the

MYSTIC. The MYSTIC will store up to 500 user waypoints in memory.

If you should ever get that many and need to input more, you will have

to delete ones that you no longer need to make room.

Using GOTO Routes

A GOTO route is simply a route with a start point (your present position)

and a single destination point (a waypoint you select). All that is required

to create a GOTO route is having the destination waypoint saved in

memory. This waypoint can be one that you have saved earlier (which is

stored in your User Waypoint List) or any of the landmarks that come with

the MYSTIC in its built-in database.

The uses for a GOTO route are endless. You could mark the location of

your mooring location or launch location as home. You could also mark a

hot fishing spot you found, and next season come back to the exact same

spot.

Creating a GOTO Route

Press the [GOTO] button. That takes

you to the GOTO database screen.

Select the Waypoint Category.

Use S and T to move the highlight through the list of waypoint

categories. The first category in the list is User Waypoint.

These are all the waypoints you have already entered into your

which have been pre-loaded into your MYSTIC and are stored in

permanent memory.

Select Find By.

There are two options of “Find By”: Alphabetical and Nearest To.

Use W or X to select the desired method. Selecting Alphabetical

will display all the waypoints in the category you select in

press [ESC] until you are viewing the Compass screen, the header

bar now displays “To: (your destination)”, and all of the

navigational information is displayed to provide you with the

necessary details to get you to your destination.

Note:

You can select a GOTO Destination Waypoint from the other

Categories. This is covered in the GPS Advanced Operation

Section (page 96).

Navigating on a GOTO Route

The MYSTIC has the tools you’ll need to navigate to your destination. You

have the choice of three customizable screens that display the information

that you need in the layout that you desire. You may find the compass

screen perfect for you, or you may prefer the Large Data or Map screen.

Press [ESC] until the navigation screen you want is displayed.

If you selected the Map screen, you will see

your position icon in the center of the screen

with a line drawn for you on the map,

graphically displaying the GOTO route.

Note that this route is line of sight (LOS) or “as

the crow flies.”

The MYSTIC does not compute the route

avoiding hazards or connecting waterways.

Important:

GOTO routes are not saved in memory when the MYSTIC

is turned off. If you are navigating on a GOTO route and

you need to turn the MYSTIC off, you will need to re-enter

the GOTO. However, Routes are stored in memory. If you

need a GOTO but expect to turn the MYSTIC off before

arriving, you might consider making a 1-leg Route using

the Route menu. This is covered in the GPS Advanced

GPS Setup

Initializing your MYSTIC

When you turn the MYSTIC on for the first time, there is no GPS position

information. Although you could let the unit calculate your present position

automatically from the available satellites, it could initially take up to 20

minutes, depending on the surrounding terrain. A better procedure is to

manually initialize the GPS function to give it a head start.

This may seem a little confusing at first as why does a device that is used

to compute its position need to know where it’s at? The MYSTIC uses

information from the GPS satellites that orbit the earth. If the MYSTIC has

an approximate idea as to your location, it will refer to the almanac it has

in memory to select what satellites are overhead. From this information,

the unit can then select the satellites that will give it the best information

for computing its location. Under normal use, the MYSTIC will save the

last position it calculated and use that position the next time it is turned on.

However, when the MYSTIC is new (or when memory has been

completely erased), it has no last position information.

Thus, it can either start polling the satellites to see which ones are

overhead or you can provide it with your approximate location allowing it

begin computing the initial position, known as first fix.

When you turn your MYSTIC on you will see a message box indicating

that the receiver needs to be initialized. Follow these instructions:

Customizing Data Fields

Many of the navigation screens have data fields that display navigational information. You

can customize these fields for each navigation screen separately with 17 different data types:

Bearing

Distance

Speed

The direction to your destination from your present position, in

degrees, from North.

The distance to your destination, measured in the Nav Units

you selected.

The rate at which you are travelling, measured in the Nav Units

you selected.

Heading

The direction you are moving, measured in degrees. When the

heading and bearing are the same, you are travelling on a

direct line to your destination

VMG

(Velocity Made Good). The speed at which you are getting

closer to your destination. If the heading and bearing are the

same, the VMG will be the same as Speed, since all the speed

you are travelling is being applied to arriving to your

destination. However, if you are off course, your VMG will be

less than the speed at which you are travelling.

CTS

ETA

(Course To Steer). The angle you need to turn to put you back

on course.

(Estimated Time of Arrival). The local time at which you will

arrive at your destination, based on the rate of speed you are

moving to your destination. (See VMG.)

ETE

Orientation

a. Use S and T to move to the first

line (Orientation). Press

[ENTER] to access the Orientation

selection list.

b. Use S and T to select the

orientation you want, and press

[ENTER]. The options are:

z North Up - North is at the top of the

screen.

z Course Up - The heading of the

active leg of the active route is at

the top of the screen. If no route is

active, the orientation is North Up

until a route is activated

z Track Up - Your heading (the

direction you are travelling) is at

the top of the screen.

Detail

You can set the detail of the map to: highest, high, medium, low, or

lowest. This changes the zoom level that displays different map

objects (cities, highways, labels, etc.). If you have set a zoom level

and the display is too cluttered, set the map detail to a lower level;

conversely set it to a higher level to view more detail. The default

is Medium:

a. Use S and T to move to the next parameter, Detail, and

press [ENTER].

b. Use S and T to select the orientation you want, and press

[ENTER].

Selecting Track Mode

The Track Mode determines how often the MYSTIC stores track

points.

zSetting the mode to OFF stops the MYSTIC from saving any new

track points.

zIn Auto or Auto Detailed mode, the MYSTIC uses a method

for track point storage that maximizes memory.

Using Auto, you will see more points on and near turns and less

points on straight stretches of the map. You also have the

option of selecting fixed intervals for track point storage.

Auto Detailed functions the same as Auto, but the base

rate of track points saved is increased. This allows a more

detailed track then Auto to be taken, while saving memory

over a fixed rate.

Mystic OM.book Page 79 Wednesday, October 22, 2003 8:59 PM

zSetting the Track Mode to “OFF” will cause severe limitations to

the ability of the MYSTIC to create a backtrack route. The same

temporary waypoints used to create the displayed track are

used to compute a backtrack route. Therefore, it is highly rec-

ommended that you use the Auto mode whenever possible.

The following is an overly simplified diagram of the three track rate

options. In most cases, Auto should meet all of your require-

ments but if you want more detail on turns and still not clutter

memory with excessive track points, select Auto Detailed.

a. Use S and T to move to Track

Mode. Press [ENTER] to access

the Track Mode selection list.

Selecting Primary Usage

The MYSTIC can be set to either Land or Marine Usage. When in

Land (default), the map displays land areas in white and water

areas as dark gray. For marine applications it may be desirable to

reverse the display, showing water as white and land as dark gray.

This will make reading some of the data information on the water

easier.

GPS Advanced Operations

Modifying a Waypoint with a Custom Icon and Name

When you mark a Waypoint, you just want to save your position quickly.

However, it will be difficult to figure out later which waypoint this is from a

list of waypoints named WPT001, WPT002, etc. For that reason, you may

want to change the default name to one of your choosing. You can also

select a different icon that will help you find the waypoint when you are

using the map screen.

To do this, press and hold [GOTO] for 2

seconds.Use STWX to move the highlight to

the Icon field and press [ENTER].

The Icon Select window is displayed. Use the

STWX to move from one icon to another.

Note the name of the icon displayed at the top.

As a reference tool, all of the icons and their

names are listed at the back of this Operating

Guide (see page 117.) When you have

highlighted the icon you want to use, press

[ENTER].

Mystic OM.book Page 97 Wednesday, October 22, 2003 8:59 PM

The cursor is now highlighting the Waypoint

Name field. Press [ENTER].

The input keyboard is now displayed. The very top of the keyboard

window shows you what field you are changing, in this case the Name

field.

Use the same technique to enter a name as you did when you entered

data in the directory (See “The Alphanumeric Keypad” on page 30.)

Note:

Waypoint names can be up to 9 characters in length.

Adding a Message to a Waypoint

You can also add a message to Waypoint you are creating. There is a

memory limit however. You can save up to 500 user-entered Waypoints in

your MYSTIC but only 200 Waypoint of those can have a message

assigned to it.

Adding a message to a Waypoint can help you identify the waypoint. If this

was a Waypoint for a specific location such as favorite fishing spot, you

could add any other information you find useful.

Mystic OM.book Page 98 Wednesday, October 22, 2003 8:59 PM

To add a message to a Waypoint you are

creating, highlight the Message field using W

and X and press [ENTER].

The same keyboard you used to enter the Name is displayed, allowing

you to enter a message. Using the same method as for Name, enter a

Message up to 30 characters long.

When you have the Message the way you want it, highlight OK and press

[ENTER]. You are returned to the Mark screen with the new Message

displayed.

Accessing Waypoints in the Database

All stored waypoints, whether user-input or preloaded, can be found in the

Waypoint Database. You will need to access waypoints in the database

whenever you are editing waypoints, activating a GOTO route or creating

a multileg route. There are three major types of categories that need to be

explained: User, Preloaded and Uploaded:

User

These are waypoints that you have saved using the MARK

function of the receiver. There can be up to 500 user-entered

waypoints stored in memory. Select User Waypoint in the list.

Preloaded

These are waypoints that are included in the base map that was

installed in your MYSTIC. The categories of preloaded waypoints

are: Cities, Highways, Airports, Waterways and Parks. The

MYSTIC has an additional set of marine preloaded categories:

Fixed Navaid, Buoys, Lighthouses, Marinas and Obstructions.

Mystic OM.book Page 99 Wednesday, October 22, 2003 8:59 PM

Uploaded

Using the MapSend software you can add detailed maps to your

MYSTIC. Along with the detailed maps, there is a set of waypoints

for a wide variety of categories.

To Access Waypoints:

1. Press [MENU].

2. Select Database, and press [ENTER].

3. At the Database screen, select the category of Waypoint.

4. If you have uploaded a detailed map, you will notice a black line

near the top of the database list with the name of the detailed

map(s) you have uploaded. To select a category for the detailed

map, first select the name of the uploaded map and press

[ENTER]. Then select the category from the newly displayed list.

5. With the category selected, you need to determine how you want

to find the desired waypoint, Alphabetical or Nearest To.

Use W or X to switch between the two.

a. Alphabetical: When Alphabetical appears in the Find By

field, the waypoints will be listed in alphabetical order and you

need to scroll through the list until you find the waypoint you

need.

b. With “User Waypoint” selected as the category, you will go

directly to the alphabetized list. Since the number of waypoints

in the other categories can be in the thousands, there are tools

you can use to make the search easier.

Keyboard Search

Before displaying the list of waypoints, the MYSTIC displays a

keyboard that you can use to enter the first few characters of the

waypoint you are looking for. When you highlight [OK] and press

[ENTER], (or as a shortcut, press [IN]), you are taken to the

alphabetical list. The waypoint you began typing is shown at the

top of the display. Anytime you are viewing the list of waypoints,

you can re-access the keyboard by pressing [ESC].

Alphabetic Scroll

You can use [IN] and [OUT] to step up or down the alphabet. If

you are viewing waypoints beginning with the letter A, press [IN] to

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Mystic OM.book Page 100 Wednesday, October 22, 2003 8:59 PM

go to the first waypoint beginning with B, and then C and so forth.

Press [OUT] to go in the reverse direction (C, B, A).

Nearest To

Nearest To provides you with a way to find the waypoints nearest

to a waypoint you select. Set Find By is set to Nearest To and

press [ENTER]. You will see waypoints in the category you

selected nearest to your present position. Once you see the

display with the waypoints nearest to your position, you can

change position to any waypoint in the database, or to your cursor

if you are in the Cursor Mode on your Map screen.

Routes

1-leg Route

You can create, and set as the active route, a 1-leg Route with your

present position as the starting point and a destination Waypoint that

you choose from the Waypoint Database. A 1-leg Route is similar to a

GOTO, except you can save it in Memory.

To create a 1-leg route:

1. From any Map Screen, press [MENU].

2. At the Map Menu, select Routes, and press [ENTER].

3. At the Routes Menu, select any empty Route (series of dashes)

and press [ENTER].

4. Select Starting Waypoint, and press [ENTER].

5. At the Waypoint Database, select the Waypoint Category and

use W and X to select the Waypoint. (For more information on

selecting Waypoints, see page 50.) Press [ENTER].

6. Use S and T to select the next leg of the Route (dashes). Press

[ENTER].

7. Repeat Steps 3 through 5 above to select the Destination

Waypoint.

8. Use S and T to select Save Route and press [ENTER] to save

the Route.

Multileg Route

A 1-leg Route is a Route with a starting point and a destination point.

A multi-leg Route is a group of 1-leg Routes strung together where the

destination of one 1-leg Route is the starting point for the next 1-leg

Route. That means if you had three 1-leg Routes, one from "A" to "B",

another from "B" to "C" and a third from "C" to "D" you could then put

them together to make one multileg route. In this example you would

have a 3-leg route that went from "A" to "B" to "C" to "D".

These routes have an advantage over GOTO's in that:

a. The starting point does not have to be your present position.

b. They are always in memory and if activated they remain

activated, even when you turn the MYSTIC off and then back

c. They can be saved and used over and over again.

These routes have been termed "multileg" in an effort to make the

understanding of them a little clearer.

To create a Multileg Route, follow the same procedure as for a 1-leg

route, with one exception. Instead of saving the Route after the first

Destination Waypoint, add as many Destination Waypoints as you

need. Then save the Route.

Backtrack Route

A Backtrack route creates a Route using track information stored in

the MYSTIC to "retrace" your trip. A good example of using a

Backtrack would be if you were out fishing with your MYSTIC turned

on and computing position fixes. After 30 minutes you choose to

return to where you started, following the same route you just took. All

you need do is follow the instructions below and let the MYSTIC take

you there.

To create a Backtrack route:

1. From any Map Screen, press [MENU].

2. At the Map Menu, select Routes, and press [ENTER].

3. At the Routes Menu, select Backtrack and press [ENTER].

GPS Glossary

Active Leg

The segment of a route currently being

traveled.

Altitude

BRG

The current elevation above sea level.

Bearing. The compass direction from your

position to a destination, measured to the

nearest degree.

Buoy

COG

A navigation aid (usually found in marine

charts) that is floating in water. The position

can vary due to the magnitude and

direction of the current.

Course Over Ground. The direction the

receiver is moving. COG can be reported in

true or magnetic north values.

Coordinates

CTS

A unique numeric or alphanumeric

description of the position.

Course to Steer. The direction you should

be traveling in order to return to the course

while proceeding towards the destination. It

is a “compromise” course bearing that

projects from your current position to a

point on the courseline midway between a

point perpendicular to your position and the

current leg destination waypoint.

Datum

Refers to the theoretical mathematical

model of the earth’s sea level surface. Map

makers may use a different model to chart

their maps, so position coordinates will

differ from one datum to another. The

datum for the map you are using can be

found in the legend of the map. If you are

unsure of which datum to use, use WGS84.

WAAS

Your MYSTIC GPS receiver has been upgraded to include the latest WAAS

(Wide Area Augmentation System) technology. With WAAS your GPS receiver

can compute position locations with an accuracy never before possible in a

commercial receiver.

What is WAAS?

WAAS is a means of improving the accuracy of GPS beyond the standard civilian

signal. WAAS was developed by the FAA to provide the accuracy needed for

aircraft to perform approaches for landings. WAAS improves the accuracy of GPS

by calculating the errors in the GPS signal at several monitoring stations around

the country and then transmitting the error corrections to special WAAS satellites.

In turn, these satellites broadcast the error corrections to WAAS-capable GPS

receivers around the world.

WAAS is a free service and, with the small exception of two additional satellites

displayed on the Satellite Status screen, it will be transparent to you. There is

nothing you need do, it’s all ready to go.

How accurate will my MYSTIC be with WAAS?

The FAA reports that expected accuracy can be improved to around 7 meters

vertically and horizontally. You can probably expect to see this level of accuracy

for 95% of the time that you are receiving WAAS signals.

What are some of the problems with WAAS?

The signal coverage with WAAS is not global like GPS satellites. In some

locations, receiving WAAS signals can be difficult and intermittent. There are two

satellites transmitting WAAS for corrections in the Americas and two more over

Africa and India providing similar coverage for Europe. These satellites are

geostationary, i.e., they stay in the same spot over the Earth equator. The two

satellites for the Americas are over the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. Chances are

then, they will probably be near the horizon from where you are using your

MYSTIC. This increases the chance that buildings, foliage, terrain and other

obstacles could block the WAAS signal.

Also WAAS is a relatively new system and is still in its developmental stage. So on

occasion you may experience service outages. Even during these outages, your

GPS receiver will still be working, computing position fixes and helping you get to

where you want to go using the GPS signals. The only difference is you will not be

getting the precision that WAAS was providing. You can expect to see these

outages diminish as the system matures and stabilizes.

For more information on WAAS, you can visit the FAA website’s section on their

WAAS system: http://gps.faa.gov/programs/WAAS/waas.htm
