NMEA Data Configuration
•
The Data Modes page (see Figure 2) allows you to configure the NavLink2 for
different NMEA data conversions and wireless network protocols.
•
By default the NavLink2 will be in High Speed Gateway Mode, where all
Instrument, GPS, Navigation and AIS data is converted from NMEA 2000 to
wireless NMEA 0183 that the majority of apps support.
•
The table on the next page shows the different NMEA modes that NavLink2
supports
and which you choose using the “NMEA Modes” selector menu.
•
TCP is the default protocol that NavLink2 uses, and is best for fast, secure,
single device connections. TCP mode must be used for driving an autopilot.
•
If you wish to allow multiple devices (up to 7) to receive the NavLink2 data at
the same time, you should select UDP protocol.
•
If you are using an App that can output Autopilot data, make sure to select
the GPS Locat
ion “From Wireless App”
