PGN  126208 

–  NMEA  Command  Group  Function  –  Maretron  Proprietary  Installation 

Offset. 

This PGN performs the installation offset of the compass.  It sets the roll and pitch outputs 

to  zero  at  the  compass’  current  orientation  and  sets  the  heading  reading  for  the  current 
orientation  to  the  value  given  by  the  PGN  (see  page  B3  for  complete  description  of  PGN 
126270). 

 

Field   1:  Complex Command Group Function Code (8 bits) 

– set this field’s value to 0x01, which 

denotes a command PGN 

 

2:  Commanded  PGN  (24  bits) 

–  set  this  field’s  value  to  126720  decimal  (0x1EF00 

hexadecimal), which denotes the Maretron proprietary PGN 

 

3:  Priority Setting (4 bits) 

– set this field’s value to 0x8, which indicates to leave priority 

settings unchanged 

 

4:  Reserved (4 bits) 

– set this field’s value to 0xF, which is the value for a reserved field 

of this size 

 

5:  Number of Pairs of Commanded Parameters to Follow (8 bits) 

– set this field’s value 

to 0x4, indicating that four parameters will follow 

 

6:  Number of First Commanded Parameter (8 bits) 

– set this field’s value to 0x1 

 

7:  Maretron Vendor ID and Industry Code (16 bits) 

– set this field to 0x9889, which is a 

combination of Maretron’s vendor ID and the marine industry code 

 

8:  Number of Second Commanded Parameter (8 bits) 

– set this field’s value to 0x02 

 

9:  Product  Code  (16  bits) 

–  set  this field’s  value  to  0x1B2,  which  is  the  NMEA  2000

® 

product code for the SSC300. 

 

10:  Number of Third Commanded Parameter (8 bits) 

– set this field’s value to 0x03 

 

11:  Software Code (16 bits) 

– set this field’s value to 0x0001, which is the identifier for this 

version of the Maretron proprietary protocol 

 

12:  Maretron Command (8 bits) 

– set this field’s value to 0x24, which will cause installation-

offset calibration to be performed 

 

13:  Heading Value (16 bits) 

– set this field’s value to the current known heading in tenths 

of degrees (a value between 0 and 3599).  For example, 121.7° would be programmed 
as 1217 decimal, or 0x4C1 hexadecimal.  

 

PGN 126208 

– NMEA Request Group Function – Transmission Periodic Rate 

This PGN will enable or disable the periodic transmission of specific PGNs. 

 

Field  1:  Complex Command Group Function Code (8 bits) 

– set this field’s value to 0x00, 

which denotes a request PGN 

 

2:  Requested PGN (24 bits) 

– set this field’s value to the corresponding PGN for which 

you wish to change the periodic rate. 

 

3:  Transmission Interval (32 bits) 

– set this field’s value to 0x0 to disable the periodic 

transmission of the PGN identified in field 2 above. Otherwise, program in the default 
periodic rate to restore periodic transmission of the PGN identified in field 2 above. 
The resolution of this field is 1 millisecond. 

 

4:  Transmission Interval Offset (16 bits) 

– set this field’s value to 0xFFFF; all other 

values will cause the request to be rejected. 

 

5:  Number of Pairs of Commanded Parameters to Follow (8 bits) 

– set this field’s value 

to 0x0.
