GX6000
• If 4800 baud (default) is selected:
The Blue and Green wires of input are at 4800 baud.
• If 38400 baud is selected:
The Blue and Green wires of input are at 38400 baud.
NMEA Output (DSC and GPS information)
• The NMEA 0183 output sentences are DSC and DSE.
• If 4800 baud (default) is selected:
a. The Gray and Brown wires output DSC and DSE sentences.
b. The Yellow and White wires of output AIS VDM sentence at 38400 baud.
• If 38400 baud is selected:
a. The Gray and Brown wires of output are at 38400 baud and includes
both DSC (DSC, DSE) and AIS (VDM) sentences.
b. The Yellow and White wires always output AIS sentences at 38400 baud.
• GSA, GSV, GLL, GGA, and RMC sentences can be output in the
GX6000
by setting through the GPS setup menu (refer to section “
18.9 NMEA 0183
IN/OUT
”).
For further information on interfacing/setting up your GPS, please contact the
manufacturer of the GPS receiver externally connected.

Accessory Cables and NMEA 0183 Cables
The image and table below show the wires of the
GX6000
and the connections
to optional devices such as an external GPS antenna, GPS chart plotter and
an AIS receiver.
CAUTION
Care must be taken not to touch any of the NMEA wires to positive 12
VDC or the radio may be damaged.
When connecting the GPS navigation receiver, strip off about 1 inch (2.5 cm)
of the specified wire’s insulation, then splice the ends together.
The
GX6000
uses NMEA 0183/-HS protocol to share coordinates, DSC and
AIS information to and from a GPS chart plotter. The
GX6000
transfers AIS
information to a GPS chart plotter at 38400 baud (sometimes called HS or High
Speed). GPS and DSC information is transferred between a GPS chart plotter
with multiple ports (minimum 2) at 4800 baud (default setting).
To connect to a GPS chart plotter which has one NMEA port, the
GX6000
may
be setup to receive GPS coordinates, send DSC and AIS signals at 38400
baud. Refer to section “
18.9 NMEA 0183 IN/OUT
” for details.
