NMEA/DGPS Cable Connections
NMEA is a standard communications format for marine electronic
equipment. For example, an autopilot can connect to the NMEA inter-
face on this unit and receive positioning information. The unit can ex-
change information with any device that transmits or receives NMEA
0183 data.
DGPS is an acronym for the Differential Global Positioning System.
DGPS supplements and boosts the accuracy of basic GPS. DGPS was
developed by the U.S. Coast Guard, which is responsible for the sys-
tem's operation in the United States. Since its creation, DGPS has be-
come the international maritime standard for marine navigation.
The most popular DGPS system relies on a grid of ground-based trans-
mitters that send correction signals to DGPS receivers. These in turn,
connect to the GPS receiver (such as the LCX-19C or LCX-18C).
Lowrance offers an optional DGPS receiver for your unit.
