Setting the Serial Outputs
The GyroTrac can output as many as three serial messages
simultaneously in any combination of NMEA version 2.2,
KVH RS-422, or Cetrek proprietary format. NMEA message
options and the KVH and Cetrek formats are described briefly in
Appendix F on page 147. Follow the procedures illustrated below
to set the serial outputs. The factory default speed setting is
10 Hz.
