Your Cobra® GPS 100 receiver makes travel easier through three
major ways:
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space-based radio-
navigation system. It consists of 24 satellites, which orbit the
Earth at an altitude of approximately 11,000 miles, and
ground stations. GPS provides users with accurate information
on position, velocity and time. This is available anywhere in
the world and in most weather conditions.
that your Cobra® GPS receiver uses to compute the locations
of the satellites and to make other adjustments needed for
accurate positioning. Your Cobra® GPS receiver uses the time
difference between the time of signal reception and the
broadcast time to compute the distance, or range, from the
receiver to the satellite. With information about the ranges
to four satellites and the location of each satellite when
the signal was sent, your Cobra® receiver can compute its
own three-dimensional position: latitude, longitude, and
altitude. People think of GPS as having three segments:
the control, space and user segments. What follows is
a little information about each segment.
GoTo a Waypoint – The GPS 100 guides you in a straight line
to a single point. (See ꢀ and ꢁ )
Navigate a Route – The GPS 100 gives you the opportunity to
select two or more waypoints to create a route. You can then use
your GPS 100 to guide you in a straight line from point to point
through your stored route. (See ꢂ and ꢃ )
GPS was initiated in 1973 to reduce the proliferation of
navigation aids by the United States Department of Defense.
By creating a robust system that overcame the limitations of
many previously existing navigation systems, GPS became
attractive to a broader spectrum of users. GPS has been
successful in classic applications such as aviation and marine
navigation since it was first developed. Since then, it has
become useful for a wide range of people because its
capabilities are accessible using small, affordable equipment.
What was once available only in very expensive equipment,
Cobra® brings to you with our high-quality line of affordable
handheld GPS receivers
Navigate a Track – The GPS 100 automatically keeps a record
of your progress as you travel and gives you a graphic representation or
“track log” of the path or track you have taken. You can use the track
log to create a track that you can recall for navigation. The track can be
navigated in the forward or the reverse direction of the original travel.

Control Segment
The Control Segment of GPS consists of the Master Control
Station, Monitor Stations and Ground Antennas.
This manual is designed to help you take advantage of these and our
many other features. We suggest that you begin by reading the “General
Information” and “System Sections” first. If you are not familiar with the
satellite navigation technology, these will help you understand the basics.
Then, take your Cobra® GPS receiver outside and practice while you read the
sections on how to operate it.
The one master control station, located at Falcon Air Force
Base in Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA is responsible for
overall management of the remote monitoring and
transmission sites. As the center for support operations, it
calculates any position or clock errors for each individual
satellite, based on information received from the monitor
stations. Then it "orders" the appropriate ground antennas to
relay the corrective information back to that satellite.
How GPS Works
GPS uses a global network of 24 satellites that transmit radio
signals to earth from high earth orbit. Thankfully for users,
the United States has offered free use of the system to the
international community. Many international user groups have
accepted GPS as the core for an international civil satellite
navigation capability.

Five monitor stations are located at Falcon Air Force Base in
Colorado, Hawaii, Ascension Island in the Atlantic Ocean,
Diego Garcia Atoll in the Indian Ocean and Kwajalein Island in
the South Pacific Ocean. Each of the monitor stations checks
the exact altitude, position, speed and overall health of the
orbiting satellites. The control segment uses measurements
collected by the monitor stations to predict each satellite's
orbit and clock. The prediction data is up-linked, or

GPS service provides users with extremely accurate
positioning information anywhere on or near the surface of
the earth. To accomplish this, each of the 24 satellites emits
signals to receivers below. GPS determines location by
computing the difference between the time that a signal is
sent and the time it is received. GPS satellites carry atomic
clocks that provide extremely accurate time information. The
time information is placed in the codes broadcast by the
transmitted, to the satellites for transmission back to the

users. The control segment also ensures that the
GPS satellite orbits and clocks remain as designed. A
station can track up to 11 satellites at a time. Each station
performs this "check-up" twice a day, as the satellites
complete their journeys around the earth. Noted variations,
such as those caused by the gravity of the moon and sun and
the pressure of solar radiation, are passed along to the
master control station.

satellites are so accurate because even an extremely
small time inaccuracy would translate into a extremely
large position difference (1/100 of a second inaccuracy
translates to a position difference of 1,860 miles to any
GPS receiver).
Your Cobra® GPS 100 has the ability to display various types
of information to you. In order to take advantage of the rich
information available to you, it is important that you
understand the meaning of certain terms. Below is a list of
terms that will aid you in using your Cobra® GPS 100.
External Components
The exterior of the GPS satellite has a variety of
Accuracy - the distance within which the unit can accurately
locate a position
Avg Speed - average speed throughout the current
navigation
Bearing - the direction you are currently heading
Date - the current date
Destination - the destination is the last point on a route, or
the end of a track
Elevation - your current elevation above sea level
ETA - Estimated Time of Arrival, based on the average speed
you have traveled over the course of your entire route or track
Location - your current location shown in degrees/minutes
of latitude and longitude
Max Speed - the highest speed that you have traveled
during the current navigation

are the ground antennas. Ground antennas monitor and track
the satellites from horizon to horizon. They also transmit
correction information to individual satellites.
antennas. The signals generated by the radio transmitter
are sent to your Cobra® GPS receiver via L-band
antennas. Another component of the satellite is the radio
transmitter, which generates the signal. Each of the 24
satellites transmits its own unique code in the signal.
Gauges Page
Set Data Display
Space Segment
The space segment includes the satellites and the Delta
rockets that launch the satellites from Cape Canaveral in
Florida. GPS satellites fly in circular orbits at an altitude of
10,900 miles (17,500 km) and with a period of 12 hours.
The orbits are tilted to the earth's equator by 55 degrees to
ensure coverage of the polar regions. Powered by solar cells,
the satellites continuously orient themselves to point their
solar panels toward the sun and their antenna toward the
earth. Each of the 24 satellites, positioned in 6 orbital
planes, circles the earth twice a day.
User Segment
You and your Cobra® GPS receiver are a part of the user
segment along with many other private individuals and
military personnel and their GPS receivers. Military GPS
equipment has been integrated into fighters, bombers,
tankers, helicopters, ships, submarines, tanks, jeeps and
soldiers' equipment. GPS is also used on Space Shuttles.
Cutting-edge Satellite navigation technology coupled with
your Cobra® GPS receiver can help overcome many of the
hardships and hazards associated with recreation. Your
Cobra® GPS receiver allows you to go practically anywhere
with confidence knowing precisely where you are at all times.
With your Cobra® GPS receiver, you will be able to record
accurately any location and return to that precise spot time
and again, any time, anywhere.

Navigating with the GPS 100
The Five Main Pages
Your GPS 100 receives signals from Global Positioning System satellites that
are in fixed orbits (stationary relative to the ground) around the earth. By
acquiring – or locking onto – the signals from at least three satellites, your
unit can use triangulation to precisely determine your current position, elevation
above sea level and bearing (the direction you are traveling). As you travel,
the unit automatically acquires the strongest satellite signals available at your
current location. By becoming familiar with the unit’s basic operating features,
you will be able to use its powerful navigational capabilities.
In the following sections of this manual, you will learn how to use five main
pages to access all the features of your GPS 100:
Map Page ꢀ
The Map page displays a map of your current position in relation to any
waypoints that you have selected. It can show you the direction of travel to
a selected destination. The Map page also shows you the track that you

Sources of Interference / Errors:
What is WAAS?
About North Reference
GPS receivers have the potential for position errors due to
interference, primarily from the following sources:
Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) is a GPS-based
navigation system that provides precision above and beyond
what GPS can do on its own. WAAS was designed to improve
the accuracy and ensure the integrity of information coming
from GPS satellites.
The vertical grid lines on any map can be aligned in one of
three different ways.
When satellite lock is lost
Ionosphere and troposphere delays
“True North” means that the vertical lines are aligned with
the geographic north pole. This is the most common method
of orienting maps.
Whenever satellite lock is lost, the following animation
sequence appears onscreen and continues to loop until
satellite lock is re-acquired.
The satellite signal slows as it passes through the atmosphere.
The system uses a built-in model that calculates an average
– though not exact – amount of delay.
WAAS is a network of 25 ground reference stations that
cover the entire U.S. plus parts of Canada and Mexico.
Implemented by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
for aviation users, these reference stations are located at
precisely surveyed spots and compare GPS distance
measurements to known values. When the WAAS signal is
available, WAAS-capable receivers typically have a much
higher accuracy than non-WAAS units.
“Magnetic North” means that the vertical lines are aligned
in the direction indicated as north by a compass, which can
differ from True North to varying amounts, depending on
where you are on the earth. (This difference is called
“inclination”and “declination.”)
Signal multi-path
This occurs when the GPS signal is reflected off objects such
as tall buildings before it reaches the receiver. This increases
the travel time of the signal, causing errors.
When GPS is turned Off
Whenever GPS is turned Off, the following animation
sequence occurs and continues to loop until search is
activated by user.
“Grid North” refers to the direction in which the straight lines
on a map are actually aligned, which may be slightly different
from True North, because the rounded surface of the earth
can not be accurately depicted on the flat surface of a map.
Receiver clock errors
The built-in clock can have very slight timing errors.
What is a Map Datum?
Orbital errors
Also known as ephemeris errors, these are inaccuracies of the
satellite’s reported location.
Maps and charts are essentially grids created from a starting
reference point called a “datum.” Many maps being used
today were originally created decades ago. Over the years,
technology has allowed us to improve our surveying skills
and create more accurate maps. However, there is still a
need to adapt GPS receivers to use with older maps.
Also, all data fields (except for power status data
fields) appear blank until GPS is turned On and
satellite lock is re-acquired.
Most common error
Most common error is not having a clear view of the sky, or
being under very cloudy conditions, when a satellite signal
may not be received.
Most navigational charts and maps will have the datum listed.
Cobra® GPS receivers include up to 100 map datums that
allow you to switch to a setting that matches your map. The
most common US map datums are World Geodetic System
1984 (WGS 84), North American Datum 1983 (NAD 83)
and North American Datum 1927 (NAD 27)
Number of satellites visible
The more satellites the receiver can see, the better the
accuracy. Buildings, terrain, electronic interference or even
dense foliage can block signal reception, resulting in position
errors or possibly no position reading at all. In general, the
clearer the view of the sky is at your location, the better
the reception will be. GPS receivers will not work indoors,
underwater or underground.
NOTE: Using a map datum that does not match the chart
you are using can result in significant differences in position
information.
Due to the errors that might occur, it is recommended that
the serious navigator use a second navigational tool, such as
a magnetic compass or map.
