Chapter: System Setup
NMEA In/Out Setup
The System has an internal RS485(isolated) communication to the transceiver.
To the outside world it has:
2 x NMEA (IEC61162-1) Inputs
1 x NMEA (IEC61162-1)output
1 x LAN (IEC61192-450) Port (In/Out)
This port can provide communication both by TCP/IP V4.0 or using IEC61162-450. If being used it requires a
network that does not exceed 20Mbits/second. The system will exert/receive a maximum load of 40 data-
grams/second
The communications menu allows the NMEA messages to be selected for the output
NMEA Outputs
Default is DPT output and ALARM outputs set to the ALF version of the standard. NMEA style sentences
will be shown as the 3 letter mnemonic when the sentence is sent or received.
The left side show a terminal emulator that
shows the input or output messages of the
selected channel. Pressing ‘Message headers’
will show the full message.
The selected channel (NMEA 1 or UDP)
The Baud rate output (4800, 32400 or 115200)
