NMEA 0183 settings
NMEA 0183 devices can be connected to Axiom™ Pro, Axiom™ XL, eS Series, and gS Series MFDs
using the NMEA 0183 wires on the supplied Power/Video/NMEA 0183 cable.
2 NMEA 0183 ports are available:
• Port 1 : Input and output, 4,800 or 38,400 baud rate.
• Port 2 : Input only, 4,800 or 38,400 baud rate.
The baud rate for each input port must be specified in the NMEA set-up menu ( Homescreen >
Settings > Network > NMEA set-up ).
Note:
• For Port 1, both the input and output communicate at the same baud rate. For example, if you
have one NMEA 0183 device connected to Port 1 INPUT, and another NMEA 0183 device
connected to Port 1 OUTPUT, both NMEA devices must use the same baud rate.

Transmission mode Switches between Single-ended and
Differential transmission modes.
The Differential transmission mode supports
higher speeds, longer cable runs, and better
data integrity. Differential mode works when
connected to opto-isolated inputs, as specified
by the NMEA 0183 standard.
The Single-ended mode is required when
sending a signal to a single-ended receiver
device, such as a PC for example.
Refer to the
NMEA 0400 Installation Standard
for wiring guidelines for the different
transmission modes.
Note: Only available on Axiom™ Pro and
Axiom™ XL displays.

5.13 Connecting to a wireless display
Axiom™, Axiom™ Pro, and Axiom™ XL MFDs can be connected to a wireless display using an external
dongle or a display that has built-in support. When connected the MFD’s screen is mirrored on
the wireless display.
1. Follow the instructions provided with your wireless display / dongle to set up that specific device.
2. On the MFD, select the display icon found under
Wireless display: on the This Display tab of the
Settings menu: ( Homescreen > This Display > Wireless Display: ).
Your MFD will search for available wireless displays.
