Setting Description
None Inputs nothing to the receiver.
TEXTB The receiver can accept ASCII data from an external device,
such as a chlorophyll meter, on Port A, merge it with NMEA GPS
data, and output the combined data on Port B. The incoming data
must be limited to 66 ASCII characters and must be terminated
by a carriage return and line feed (hex characters 0x0D 0x0A).
The NMEA string outputs as $PTNLAG001,<up to 66 ASCII
characters>*<2 digit checksum><CR><LF>. For the receiver to
output the combined NMEA string, NMEA must be selected as
the output protocol on Port B.
TEXTA See the description for the TEXTB setting. TEXTA outputs on
Port A, not Port B.
RTCM The receiver can accept RTCM data from an external DGPS
device, such as an FM pager, or DSM132RS and radio data link.
TSIP The receiver can accept or output TSIP data packets from the
port when using the optional AgRemote program or HYDROpro
software.
LBAR Not us ed for marine applications.
