Chapter 1: System Connections 5
Alternative uses of NMEA OUT connector
The
NMEA OUT
connector can be used in either of the following ways:
• To output supported NMEA data to an external NMEA system.
• To connect alarm signals to an Auxiliary Alarm.
Note: If you connect the
NMEA OUT
connector to an Auxiliary Alarm, you
can still use the
NMEA IN
connector to receive data from NMEA.
Defining the NMEA OUT connector function
Before the ST60 Graphic Display is used, you must use the procedures in
Chapter 2, Initial Setup to
define how the
NMEA OUT
connector is
connected (i.e. for either NMEA out data or Auxiliary Alarm).
