BASIC OPERATION

The radar bearing interface accepts NMEA, N+1,
AUX, or COG data format and the bearing can use a
magnetic or true north type. When a true north type
bearing is used, the variation from magnetic north
can be adjusted on 0.1˚ steps.

accuracy falls. Moreover, the position accuracy or
the current actual course may vary, therefore the
