It may be necessary to turn on NMEA output. Refer to the radar systems instruction
manual.
DATA TRANSMISSION
ECDIS is able to accept different norm for the data in particular NMEA183 (4800 bps, 8 data
bits, No parity, 1 stop bit).
ECDIS is also compatible with:
• YokogaviCMZ300x (4800, 8, N, 1)
• ATLAS ARPA(4800, 8, N, 1)
• Lehmkuhk (9600, 8, N, 1)
• ARPA Sperry (1200, 8, N, 1)
The first bit is a start bit and is followed by data bits least significant bit first.
DATA FORMAT PROTOCOL NMEA
Implementation of the NMEA data analysis has been made in ECDIS according to the standard
document Standard For Interfacing Marine Electronic Devices Version 2.1, edited by the
National Marine Electronics Association.
All transmitted data are interpreted as ASCII characters. The null character is not used.
The NMEA sentence contains the following elements:
$ <Talker> <, data field> <, data field>, …..<* Check Sum> <CR> <LF>.
Different fields are separated by delimiters "," and consist in a string. The checksum field may
be transmitted in any sentence.
POWER SUPPLIES
UPS
ECDIS ON FLAT PANEL PC OR SPLIT SOLUTION
Two different UPSs are offered, depending on the user’s requirements. The UPS protects the
ECDIS computer from basic power problems: power failure, power sags and power surges. It
safely eliminates the effects of power disturbances and guards the integrity of ECDIS
equipment.
The UPSs are “plug and play”, but can be controlled via a serialport.
Both offered UPSs are EN60945 compliant and manufactured by MGE UPS System.
