Data source selection Ú Note: If NMEA 0183 is used, complete the NMEA 0183 setup prior to doing source selection. Refer to "NMEA 0183 setup" on page 45. Data sources provide live data to the system. The data may originate from modules internal to the unit (for example internal GPS or sonar), or external modules connected to the NMEA 2000 or via NMEA 0183 if available on the unit. When a device is connected to more than one source providing the same data, the user can choose the preferred source. Before commencing with source selection make sure all external devices and the NMEA 2000 backbone are connected and are turned on. Device name Assigning a name is useful in systems using more than one device of the same type and size. When viewing data sources or the device list, the assigned name will append the default product name + virtual device function for easy identification. Auto configure Auto configure is available on the ELITE-7Ti only. The Auto configure option will look for all sources connected to the device. If more than one source is available for each data type, selection will be made from an internal priority list. This option will be suitable for the majority of installations. Ú Note: Auto data source selection may already have been selected at first time startup, however it should be redone if any new devices have been added to the network since. 32 Software Setup | ELITE Ti Installation Manual

If NMEA 0183 is used, complete the NMEA 0183
setup prior to doing source selection. Refer to
"NMEA 0183
setup"
on page 45.
Data sources provide live data to the system.
The data may originate from modules internal to the unit (for
example internal GPS or sonar), or external modules connected to
the NMEA 2000 or via NMEA 0183 if available on the unit.
When a device is connected to more than one source providing the
same data, the user can choose the preferred source. Before
commencing with source selection make sure all external devices
and the NMEA 2000 backbone are connected and are turned on.
Device name
Assigning a name is useful in systems using more than one device
of the same type and size. When viewing data sources or the device
list, the assigned name will append the default product name +
virtual device function for easy identification.
Auto configure
Auto configure is available on the ELITE-7Ti only.
The Auto configure option will look for all sources connected to the
device. If more than one source is available for each data type,
selection will be made from an internal priority list. This option will
be suitable for the majority of installations.
