NMEA Setup
“Screen COM” is used for verication of received and control of transmitted IEC-61162-1:2007(E)
(NMEA 0183) messages. See “Screen com, Menu 1, NMEA setup.” on page 20 . The 4800 baud
rate is the most common, but the baud rate may also be set to other values to interface with dierent
kind of equipment. When a NMEA talker is connected to one of the inputs, all received messages will
be displayed on the screen. If no messages are displayed, check the signal polarity, the baud rate and
input mode (input, output or o). If messages are marked red, check message protocol. The following
messages are accepted for input and interpreted by the program. The talker identier is ignored.
