In the event that you are using a Loran-C Navigator for the first time, please
refer to the Raynav 508/508~ Loran-C Sensor instruction manual for basic
loran information. The Introduction section of the 508 manual includes a
listing of common Loran C Terminology used with loran.
If your
NAV398
is using the
RAYSTAR 108
GPS Sensor, the Raystar 108
instruction manual includes a general description of the GPS system which
may also be helpful. The
Raystar
108 GPS sensor is compatible with
Raytheon’s Differential Beacon Receiver. If you have added the DGPS
Receiver to your system, a simple explanation of the US Coast Guard’s
DGPS system is included in that manual for your reference.
Section 2 of this manual contains important information concerning the
installation of your new NAV unit. Although the typical installation might
seem straightforward and simple, we highly recommend that this section be
read completely and the guidelines for installation be closely followed to
assure a more trouble free and efficient operation of your new unit.
Section
3
covers the Operations of the
NAV 398
and is intended to get you
thoroughly familiar with the unit’s controls and display formats. The
NAV
398
uses many on-screen prompts to help guide you through operations and
logical key operations, which should be easy to remember.

key and start again.
Section 4 contains technical information concerning some basic care and
maintenance for your unit. In the event that the unit should ever require
