water depth in feet, fathoms, or meters, tempera-
ture in degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius, (tempera-

You can change any or all of the settings on this page. When you’re fin-
ished, press the EXIT key.
NMEA/DGPS
This product transmits data through the power/data port in the back of the
unit using NMEA 0183 format, version 1.5 or 2.0. The data is used by
other electronic devices such as marine autopilots for position and steer-
ing information.
DGPS on the other hand, is a data input. DGPS is an acronym for Differ-
ential Global Positioning System. Currently, it relies on a system of ground-
based transmitters that send correction signals to small DGPS receivers.
DGPS gives you more accurate positions than is otherwise possible.
See the installation section for cable connections. See the sample wiring
diagram below for general wiring procedures. Read your other product’s
owner’s manual for more wiring information.
