NAV6 Series NAVTEX System User Guide

Navigation Views
(NAV6plus or NAV6repeater only)
Navigate Views are only available if there is a GPS or other source of NMEA 0183 data
connected to the NAV6plus or NAV6repeater NMEA input.
The GPS icon in the status bar at the top of the display will be illuminated only if there is
position data available on the NMEA input.
There are six fixed-format Navigate Views and four Custom Views. These can be selected on
the General Settings Page.
The six fixed views are:
Barometer View
Combined View
Position View
Waypoint View
Conning View
Log View
The user configurable views are Custom 1,2,3 and 4.
Note: Data fields that are not available on the NMEA input are indicated by a series of dashes
(e.g. ---.--).
Important
The correct magnetic variation must be input at the navigation instruments (e.g. GPS,
electronic compass) for the accurate display of COG, set, waypoint bearing and heading.
For the purposes of testing your installation, you may wish to use your GPS’s simulator mode
to generate data for the NAV6plus. Please check your GPS User Manual to find out whether it
transmits valid NMEA data whilst it is in its simulator mode – many GPS’s do not set the ‘data
valid’ flag in the NMEA sentences during simulation. As a safety feature, the NAV6plus will
indicate that it is receiving unreliable NMEA data by displaying the GPS icon with a line
through it in the status bar at the top of the display.
The NAV6plus also has a built in NMEA simulator mode – please ensure that it is switched
OFF in normal operation.
