Heading
Bridge NMEA Heading
The hsb
2
seriesdisplays bridgeNMEA input data to the SeaTalk bus (see
Section 8.8). The Bridge NMEA Heading option can be used to prevent
NMEA heading data being bridged ontothe SeaTalk bus.
For example,if you have a course computer connected on SeaTalk and
NMEA, and an active compass connected on NMEA (for MARPA), SeaTalk
dataoverrides NMEA data in the course computer. You should therefore
switch OFF the Bridge NMEA Heading option to ensure the course computer
receivesthe same NMEA heading input as the radar system.
NMEA Out Set Up
This option lets you switch offindividual NMEA out sentences.
Cursor Echo
You can set up an integratedsystemso that radar and chartplotterdisplays
connected via SeaTalk can display each other’s cursors.
Cursor echo functions so that you can displaya chartcursor on the radar
picture,or a radarcursor on the chart picture (you cannot display a remote
radar cursor in a radar window nor a remote chart cursor in a chart window).
When the appropriate options are switched on, each displayshows its own
cursor,plusthecursorof theotherdisplaywithappropriatecursortext(RDR or
CHT) to indicate its origin.This means that you could move the cursor over a
targetontheradardisplay,andchecktheidentityofthetargetbylookingatthe
radarcursor position on the chartplotter.
Press the CURSOR ECHO softkey to displaythe cursor transfer softkeys. The
followingoptions can be toggled ON or OFF:
• RadarCursor In: displays the cursor from another radar on the chart dis-
playor chart window (default - OFF).
• ChartCursor In: displaysthe cursor from another chartplotter on the
radar display or radar window (default- OFF).
Note:The remotedisplaymusthaveSeaTalk CursorOutenabled.Raymarine
recommend that in multi-display systems, you do not enable Cursor Out on
more than two displays. If multiple displays have cursor out enabled, the cur-
sors will not be displayed simultaneously, but will flash on/off.
• SeaTalk Cursor Out: enables the output, onto SeaTalk, of the display’s
own cursor (default - OFF).
• CursorEchoLocal:echoesthecursorpositionbetweenopenwindowson
the same display (default - ON).
If you set the options to OFF, no cursor echo informationis displayed.
