output format used when connecting your unit to
external NMEA devices, a DGPS beacon receiver, or a
personal computer, etc. Five format settings are available:
Aviation In —
allows the NavTalk Pilot to commu-
nicate with a Garmin panel-mounted GPS. Flight
plans (or GOTO destinations) selected on the
panel-mounted GPS will also appear on the
NavTalk Pilot.
GARMIN —
the proprietary format used to exchange
waypoint, route, track log data with a PC or with
another NavTalk Pilot.
NMEA —
supports the input/output of standard
NMEA 0183 version 2.0 data.
None —
provides no interfacing capabilities.
RTCM/NMEA —
allows Differential GPS (DGPS)
input using a standard RTCM format and also
provides NMEA 0183 version 2.0 output.
RTCM In —
allows DGPS input using a standard
RTCM format, without any output capabilities.
RTCM Text —
allows DGPS input using a standard
RTCM format and also provides simple text (ASCII)
output containing position, velocity, and time data
in fixed width fields.
Text Out —
supports simple text (ASCII) output

width fields (not delimited).
The ‘GARMIN’ option
allows the data exchange
with a PC or another unit.
Use this setting to perform

When transferring data
to/from another unit,
select the type of data
and whether to ‘request’
it from or ‘send’ it to the
other unit.
