Frequently Asked Questions

Output Data

What is NMEA?

NMEA (National Marine Electronics Association) is the
standard used for interfacing marine electronic devices. This
standard has also been adapted for use in a variety of third-party
mapping software programs.

What are the NMEA message strings?

The Meridian supports version 1.5 and 2.1 of the NMEA 0183
standard.

Additional information on NMEA can be found at on the
internet at www.nmea.org, where you can purchase the NMEA
Interface Standards. Another excellent source for NMEA
standards is a FAQ sheet that is published on the internet by
Peter Bennett at vancouver-webpages.com/peter/nmeafaq.txt.

My GPS is not communicating with my computer. What can I do?

Check your baud rate and check the baud rate that your software
is using. If they don’t match, change either the software’s or the
Meridian’s baud rate (See Setup - Changing the Baud Rate.)

Can I interface my Meridian with a Macintosh computer?

Magellan does not supply cabling or software for the Macintosh
line of computers. For information on a cable or software that
may meet your requirements, visit GPSy at www.gpsy.com on
the internet.
