Select sentences to be transmitted in the GPS mode to
transmit position data.
• Select up to 4 of the 6 GPS sentences to transmit at the
same time. RMC, GGA, GLL, VTG, GSA and GSV sentenc-
es are selectable.
Even if the GPS Auto TX Timer is set to “5 sec.,” when 4 sen-
tences are selected in this setting, the time the GPS Auto
TX Timer will automatically be changed to “10 sec.”
• “VTG,” “GSA” and “GSV” sentences will not be transmitted
when your position has been manually set.
NOTE:
Set the GSV sentence to OFF when sending the
GPS message to conventional digital transceivers
(IC-2820H, IC-E2820, ID-800H, IC-91AD, IC-E91,
IC-V82, IC-U82, IC-2200H).
The GSV sentence is incompatible with them. Those
transceivers will not display GPS messages properly
if sent as a GSV sentence from the ID-5100A/E.
