4.18 Interfacing
With the AP35 autopilot system there are several possibilities to connect to
other equipment for data exchange:
1. J3000X includes a single NMEA input/output port.
2. J300X includes two NMEA input/output ports (NMEA heading 10 Hz to
port 2) and Clock Data interface to Simrad/Anritsu and Furuno radars.
3. The optional NI300X NMEA Interface (expansion) Unit with 4 additional
NMEA input/output ports.
The NMEA output may also drive IS15 instruments directly.
The different connecting diagrams below illustrate the interface possibilities.
