AIS : The NMEA2 output port sends only the AIS
information to the connected device. (Default)
AIS+GPS : The NMEA2 output port sends both the AIS
and GPS information to the connected device.
This setting is recommended for use in an area
where there are few vessels. In areas crowded
with AIS equipped vessels, a large amount of
information is received. The output of GPS in-
formation has priority, so the NMEA2 output
port may not send some AIS information cor-
rectly. However, the transponder displays the
AIS information on it’s LCD correctly.
