GP-170

The Furuno GP-170 is a marine GPS/DGPS receiver. It is normally installed on the bridge with satellite and correction-source interfaces. It is designed for positioning with differential correction capability where supported. The operating principle relies on satellite navigation combined with a differential correction source. The supplied entry gives no additional verified capacity, pressure, power or dimensional figure for this model. Compared with neighbouring models, the relevant differences are correction method, constellations, antenna arrangement and data interfaces; these must be confirmed from the installed documentation rather than inferred from the model designation alone. Service and survey attention should concentrate on GNSS and correction status, antenna/cabling, position comparison, outputs and alarms. For exact ratings, dimensions, tolerances, test limits and model-specific settings, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.

Common failures & inspection points

Sensor or transmitter failure caused by electronics, RF, antenna or transducer faults, noticed as missing or degraded navigation data
External sensor-input failure caused by GNSS, heading, speed or network faults, noticed as alarms, frozen data or misaligned overlays
Display/processor failure caused by power, cooling, storage or software faults, noticed as blank screen, rebooting or unavailable functions
Antenna/transducer/cable damage caused by weather, water ingress, fouling or impact, noticed as weak, intermittent or implausible signals
Incorrect configuration or calibration caused by maintenance or operator error, noticed as persistent disagreement with independent references

Service & Maintenance

Verify the equipment against an independent navigation reference where practicable, inspect antennas/transducers, cables and power supplies, and confirm required sensor inputs and alarms. Check data distribution to dependent bridge equipment and review calibration, chart or configuration status appropriate to the device. Use vessel procedures and manufacturer tests for acceptance.
