Main Menu > Setup Tab Advanced NMEA Output Setup If you are going to interface the GPSMAP 276C with another piece of equipment (such as a radar or autopilot), the unit needs to be set to output NMEA data. The NMEA data transmission can be customized to keep the output rate at two seconds. If too many NMEA sentences are started, the unit might take longer than two seconds to update. You can also set the Output Rate to Fast to output a minimum number of NMEA sentences at 1-second intervals. To access the Advanced NMEA Output Setup: 1. Highlight the Setup tab on the Main Menu. 2. Select the COM 1 or COM 2 sub tab. 3. Highlight the Serial Data Format field, and press Enter. 4. Select NMEA In/NMEA Out, and press Enter. 5. Press Menu to open the options menu. Select Advanced NMEA Setup, and press Enter.
