Serial port setup

NMEA 0183 setup is done from the Network Settings page.

Receive waypoint

to transfer directly to the NSS.

Serial communication

This should be set according to correspond with devices connected to the NMEA 0183 input

and output. RS422 is the default setting.

Baud rate

Baud Rate is set simultaneously for the input and the ouput, it can not be set at a di erent

speed for each. It should be set to match the speed of the device connected to it. Most

NMEA 0183 devices send data at 4800 baud.

baud rate to be set to 38,400.

NMEA0183 output

To enable data output, select the Output option, and then select which sentences the NSS

needs to transmit to other devices from the Output Sentences list.
