NMEA-Interface X8
Interface for START / STOP - SLAVE indicator, potential free alarm relay contacts and
Digital Slave Indicator.
After each sounding the NAVIGATION ECHO SOUNDER transmits depth information
to the Digital Slave Display interface (15 to 60 times per minute, depending upon the
measuring range selected) in NMEA, Version 2.00 format. The DPT (Depth) and DBT
(Depth Below Transducer) sentences are as follows:
