7.1. Setting the RemV4 string output
To select the output string format in RemV4:
Note
Up to 4 Output strings can be selected which can be output on the same COM
port or a different one.
1. Ensure ‘Seanet Pro’ is opened and has an Application containing ‘Nav’ in the name
running. This will ensure the Slot list (‘Applications’ – ‘Remote SKV4’) of RemV4 is built
with the Nav slot (=8) listed.
2. Click on the ‘Configure’ drop-down button for the Nav item (Slot 8) and select ‘Output 1’
as shown below.
