When choosing the navigation software, you can choose between WinGPS 5 and WinGPS Marine. WinGPS 5 is intended for use on a Windows device, such as a laptop or board PC. The advantage of this version with respect to the WinGPS Marine is that there is also a route planner including all bridge and lock information with pictures, operating hours and contact information. In addition, from WinGPS 5 Pro, you can connect an AIS, wind meter, depth meter, log, compass and an autopilot.

WinGPS Marine is intended for use on an Android device, such as a tablet or smartphone. This navigation software is slightly less extensive than WinGPS 5, but it is also a little less expensive. This app can be used on an Android device, for example a 10" tablet, but they are also available in larger sizes and waterproof.

Yes, it is possible to connect board instruments to WinGPS 5 Pro and WinGPS Marine.

If you have one device you would like to connect, you can do this via the enclose cabling or via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth network. If you have multiple devices like AIS, GPS, wind meter, depth meter, log or compass, you can connect them all to a multiplexer. This multiplexer can be connected to the laptop or computer via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or USB. If you want to connect it to the Android tablet, it must be connected to Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. All data from your instruments are then displayed in WinGPS.

The charts can be stored on a SD card. If you are using WinGPS Marine on a tablet or smartphone without the possibility of an SD card, we recommend that you use a device with at least 16GB of internal storage. This allows you to use other apps in addition to WinGPS and your chart(s).

Minimal required is Android 2.3 Gingerbread. Most tested is Android 5, 6 and 7. To let the charts run along with your position you need to have an internal GPS or a Bluetooth connection with a Bluetooth GPS.

To use the route network, you must have at least 2 GB of random access memory(RAM). It's important that your tablet allows the app to use the full RAM and not limit it to, for example, 512 MB.

Yes, that's possible. You are entitled to install and activate the chart on 2 different systems. For example, one on your tablet and one on your navigation laptop. This is done as follows:

1. When you install the DKW Charts app, you will be asked to enter your Stentec account. This will link the charts to your account. Log in at www.stentec.com and will find your products in the activation overview.
2. If you want to install the charts on your navigation laptop, this can be done with the DKW Manager. You can download this for free via this link. After installing DKW Manager: click 'install / update', then choose 'install via internet' and follow the steps.
3. For optimal use, we recommend that you always use one Stentec account. This will give you all the updates that you are entitled to and you can manage your own license codes.

Yes, this is possible if you have a working internet connection. If you have no charts installed on your tablet, or no charts available on your Stentec account you can use the default ESRI chart. The ESRI charts cover the whole world. Beware that these charts will use your mobile internet connection (Wifi or your mobile data plan) and are not meant for navigation. These charts can, for example, be used to test the app.

It is also possible to download free DKW Charts: New Zealand and the Frisian Lakes are official up to date nautical charts and can be downloaded for free.

Yes, this is the purpose of the DKW 1800 app. With our weekly BaZ update service we guarantee the most up-to-date charts during the edition year. If folio's are renewed by the Hydrographic office you will automatically receive an update.

The 1800 series of the Hydrographic office are since 2013 not continued as a paper charts. The still available charts are not safe to use for navigation because they are outdated if you did not update the BaZ by hand weekly.

Compared to the paper sets, the charts in your app will automatically show your location if your GPS is enabled. The log of your position will automatically be tracked. You can set this up to 5 days.

You can create your own waypoint, give it a name, and sail to this waypoint using a course to steer (CTS) and see the distance to go (DTG).

Some charts are grid charts, in which the buoys are processed, and some charts are hybrid charts, in which buoys are like a waypoint layer across the grid map.

The DKW 1800 series is an example of a grid chart. If you do not see any buoys on this, you can look at the menu in 'chart manager'. Turn on the 1800 series charts and go the right-hand screen, here you will see all individual charts. Turn off the overview charts, for example the 1801.01 and the 1803.01. As a result, these overview charts do not cover the detailed charts and you will see all available details, including buoys.

The Inland charts are hybrid charts. The buoys are like a waypoint layer on the grid map. If you do not see any buoys, check the waypoints at the top left 'eye'. You can also look at the menu at 'waypoint manager' to see if the necessary waypoints are (also swipe to the left and right to see more options). If you do not see any waypoints here, the chart may not be fully downloaded. When you restart the app, you will be asked to download the remaining part.

It is also possible that another chart, on a larger scale, is blocking your detailed chart. Therefore, look at the chart manager to see which charts are checked. Make sure you only check the charts that you currently use.

You get a red cursor and red position if your GPS does not have a fix. The number of discovered satellites is less than 3. You can find the number of satellites in the instrument display. When it says 1/4 there are only 4 satellites seen by the GPS and only 1 used. This is not enough for a fix.

Inside a steel, aluminium or carbon ship you won't have enough reception. For a good fix your GPS in your tablet or smartphone has to see at least half the sky.

The newest Android devices have (in general) enough memory and on this devices the apps and charts will work fine. However, some older devices don't have enough memory for each app, and therefor also our app will slow down and sometimes not work properly.

A tip is to go to the chart manager and turn off the charts you don't use (for example the overview charts). You can do the same for waypoint groups. This will give your device more free memory.

If this does not help enough, you can go to 'Settings' and to 'Advanced', and increase 'tile cache'. Beware that your system will have less memory for other apps you are using. By moving the Tile cache too much to the left, not all the charts will be shown in your chart screen. You can experiment with this tool to find out what setting is best for your tablet.
