Interfacing the unit
The unit is easily interfaced to other equipment as described below.
NMEA 0183 is the most common interface data format used with installa-
tions, and it is a widely-accepted standard of data transfer between most
all types of marine electronics today, enabling completely different instru-
ments to “speak” a common language.
The unit has the following ports:
•
three bi-directional NMEA input/output ports
•
one bi-directional auxiliary (aux) port that you can use for commu-
nicating data to or from other instruments.
