NS 10 Interface Options

NMEA

The NS 10 has the capability of outputting position, speed, and course information to other electronic devices such as plotters, radars, autopilots, etc. The NS 10 uses a standard format for outputting this information called NMEA 0183. This standard is defined by the National Marine Electronics Association, and is commonly used by most marine electronics manufacturers. The NMEA interface specifications are as follows:

-The NS 10 uses port #6 to output information. Figure 31 shows the custom connector supplied to adapt to other devices.

-Output current is 20 milliamps

-There are 4 sentences per attachment: GPAPB, GPGLL GPVTG, GPBWC. Each is transmitted once every two seconds.

Note: The GPAPB and the GPBWC sentence is transmitted only when a route is active.

There are no proprietary sentences, and no unused fields.

-The schematic is illustrated in figure 32.
