Refreshing a GPS Standard
The GPS 76CSx is a refreshing upgrade of the GPS 76CS, one
of our most popular models for outdoor and marine use. This unit
features a removable microSD card for detailed ping memory and
a waterproof, rugged housing. The microSD card slot is located
inside the waterproof battery compartment. Users can load
data and transfer routes and waypoints through the unit?s fast
USB connection.
In addition, this unit features a new, highly sensitive GPS
receiver that acquires satellites faster and lets users track
their location in challenging conditions, such as heavy foliage
or deep canyons. The GPS 76CSx also incorporates a barometric
altimeter for extremely accurate elevation data and an electronic
compass that displays an accurate heading while standing still.
Considered the mainstay among serious outdoor enthusiasts, the
GPS 76CSx and GPS 76Cx offer a large color TFT display and
turn-by-turn routing capability. These units also float when
dropped in the water. Each unit comes with a blank 128 MB microSD
card. Owners of these new x-series handhelds can also purchase
new microSD cards that are pre-loaded with Source Topo and
inland lake s, BlueChart marine cartography, and City
Navigator street s.

The GPS 76CSx features the powerful SiRF GPS navigation chip,
as well as an electronic compass and a barometric altimeter.
The trip computer provides odometer, stopped time, moving
average, overall average, total time, max speed, and more. You
can use the 76CSx's memory card slot with preprogrammed microSD
cards from Garmin (sold separately) that provide topographic
s, city streets, and nautical charts. In fact, the unit is
compatible with most Garmin Source products, including
BlueChart, City Navigator, U.S. Topo 24K, and U.S. Topo and
Recreational Lakes with Fishing Hot Spots. The unit comes
preloaded with an Americas autoroute base that provides
automatic routing capabilities including highways, exits, and
tide data. There's also a preloaded marine point database. You
can even get turn-by-turn directions when you're driving, and an
integrated trip computer provides odometer, stopped time, moving
average, overall average, total time, max speed, and more.
The 76CSx's 2.6-inch, 256-color TFT color display is designed to
present ping and trip information clearly and accurately in
any lighting conditions. Plus, the case is lightweight, rugged,
and water resistant to IEC 60529 IPX7 standards (can be submerged
in one meter of water for 30 minutes). Marine users will also
like the fact that the 76CSx floats. When using two AA alkaline
batteries, you'll get up to 20 hours of battery life from the
unit.
Another key feature of the 76CSx is the 10,000 point automatic
track log; 20 saved tracks (500 points each) let you retrace your
path in both directions. Meanwhile, there's a large numbers
option for easy viewing, as well as a dual-position display mode.
The unit also includes built-in celestial tables for best times
to fish and hunt, plus sun and moon calculations. You also get
audible alarms for anchor drag, arrival, off-course, proximity
waypoint, and clock. The unit's barometric altimeter system
features automatic pressure trend while providing
current elevation, ascent/descent rate, minimum/maximum
elevation, total ascent and descent, and average and maximum
ascent and descent rate. Meanwhile, the electronic compass allows
you to get accurate headings while standing still.
The 76CSx's trip computer provides odometer, stopped time,
moving average, overall average, total time, max speed, and more.
Meanwhile, a fast processor allows the 60Cx to provide quick
auto-routing, turn-by-turn directions, and audio alerts when you
use the optional Source software, which can be stored on the
unit's included 128 MB microSD card. Downloading information is
quick with the USB or serial port interfaces. Using the dedicated
serial port, the 76CSx can share navigation instructions with
repeaters, plotters, and autopilots.
If you like the features of the 76CSx but don't need an
electronic compass and a barometric altimeter, check out the
