140 Version 3.3
Operator’s Manual Configuration
WPL - Waypoint Location Data Record:
The receiver outputs all of the waypoints in the active route.
If you want to output the complete Waypoint Bank, simply
press the Send All softkey from the NMEA WPL screen.
The WPL record, as defined by the NMEA 0183 standard,
technically does not allow the output of waypoint descrip-
tions when interfacing to other devices such as Chart
Plotters. However, Leica realizes that with 2000 waypoints,
you have spent a lot of time preparing your library of
waypoints with definitions and symbols. You probably will
want to record these to a PC, just in case the memory in the
receiver fails in the future. For this reason, we have pro-
vided you the option to Include Waypoint Names in the
WPL record to save your waypoints to a PC or to meet the
NMEA 0183 standard for interfacing to other marine
equipment. The definition of the differences between these
two formats is given in the WPT section of this manual and
in the NMEA 0183 format section of the Installation &
Service Manual.
