Disable
– the channel is disabled and transmits no data over the NMEA 2000 network
6.5.3.3 Instance
From here the instance number used in the message send for this channel may be set.
6.5.3.4 Source
This parameter is present only when the channel has been configured for the function of
Temperature, Pressure, Humidity, or Flow Rate. This parameter selects the type of temperature,
pressure, humidity, or flow rate measurement being performed so that displays can more easily select
the data from the network.
6.5.3.5 Value at 4mA
Program this parameter to match the reading of the current loop transducer when it is sourcing a
current of 4mA. You can determine this value by examining the specification of the transducer being
used.
6.5.3.6 Value at 20mA
Program this parameter to match the reading of the current loop transducer when it is sourcing a
current of 20mA. You can determine this value by examining the specification of the transducer being
used.
6.5.3.7 Data Damping Period
You can configure a damping parameter to smooth the parametric readings or make them more
responsive. The data damping is configurable between 0.1-25.0 seconds. The default data damping
period is 3.0 seconds.
