Frequently Asked Questions Output Data What is NMEA? NMEA (National Marine Electronics Association) is the standard used for interfacing marine electronic devices. This standard has also been adapted for use in a variety of third-party mapping software programs. What are the NMEA message strings? The Meridian supports version 1.5 and 2.1 of the NMEA 0183 standard. Additional information on NMEA can be found at on the internet at www.nmea.org, where you can purchase the NMEA Interface Standards. Another excellent source for NMEA standards is a FAQ sheet that is published on the internet by Peter Bennett at vancouver-webpages.com/peter/nmeafaq.txt. My GPS is not communicating with my computer. What can I do? Check your baud rate and check the baud rate that your software is using. If they don't match, change either the software's or the Meridian's baud rate (See Setup - Changing the Baud Rate.) Can I interface my Meridian with a Macintosh computer? Magellan does not supply cabling or software for the Macintosh line of computers. For information on a cable or software that may meet your requirements, visit GPSy at www.gpsy.com on the internet.
