Exporting waypoints or routes over NMEA 0183
This procedure details exporting waypoints or routes from an MFD running
the LightHouse 3 or LightHouse 4 operating system to an MFD running the
First responder version of the LightHouse 2 operating system.
Note:
It may be possible to export waypoints and routes to other NMEA 0183
devices following a similar procedure, refer to the instructions that
accompanied the NMEA 0183 device and use them in place of the
LightHouse 2 steps below.
1. Ensure that an NMEA 0183 output port on the sending MFD is correctly
connected to an NMEA 0183 input port on the LightHouse 2 First
responder MFD.
Example NMEA 0183 connection
1. Sending MFD (e.g.: Axiom Pro running LightHouse 3 / LightHouse 4 )
2. LightHouse 2 MFD (e.g.: eS series)
3. Example connection Port 1, positive output (Yellow) to Port 1, positive
input (White)
4. Example connection Port 1, negative output (Brown) to Port 1, negative
input (Green)
Note:
If you require 2 way transfer of waypoint and routes also connect:
• Example connection Port 1, positive input (White) to Port 1, positive
output (Yellow)
• Example connection Port 1, negative input (Green) to Port 1, negative
output (Brown)
2. Ensure the sending MFD’s NMEA 0183 Transmission mode setting is set
to [Single-ended] .
The Transmission mode settings is located on the NMEA set-up menu
page:
[Homescreen > Settings > Network > NMEA set-up > ]
3. From the LightHouse 2 MFD:
i. Select [My data] from the [Homescreen] .
ii. Select either [Waypoints] or [Routes] .
iii. Select [Import/Export] from the top of the waypoint list / routes list.
