NMEA 0183 connector
Connect the ship’s gyro to this connector.
(Hardware prepared for NMEA 2000, for future use)
NMEA 2000 power: 9-16 VDC. NMEA 2000 LEN (Load Equivalency Number): 2 (100mA)
NMEA 0183
The NMEA 0183 connection supports IEC 61162-1 and IEC 61162-2.
• IEC 61162-1, baud rate 4800, format 8N1.
• IEC 61162-2, baud rate 38400, format 8N1.
The baud rate is auto detected by the ACU, the user cannot configure this interface.
Supported NMEA string:
1. HEHDT (North seeking Gyro compass)
2. GPHDT (GPS compass)
3. HNHDT (Non-North seeking gyro compass)
4. IIHDT (Integrated Instrument)
5. HCHDT (Magnetic compass)
