NMEA Interface If you are going to use the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C with a NMEA device (such as a VHF radio or autopilot), the unit needs to be set to input/output NMEA data. See the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C & GPS 17 Installation Instructions for information on wiring and NMEA data. To activate the NMEA data: 1. Highlight the Port 1 or Port 2 field, and press ENTER. 2. Highlight NMEA In/NMEA Out, and press ENTER. When transferring data between two Garmin units, always set one to Host and use the other unit to send or request the data. Main Menu > System Tab Use the Advanced NMEA Setup Page to turn the GPS status (GSA, GSV), Waypoint/Route (WPL, RTE), and the Garmin proprietary sentences on or off. Check any other equipment's owners manual to see what sentences are required to be enabled for functionality. Lat/Lon Minutes Precision allows you to adjust the number of digits to the right of the decimal point for transmission of NMEA Output, either 2, 3, or 4 digits. Use the Waypoint ID setting to output the waypoint identifiers as names or numbers. Main Menu Advanced NMEA Output Setup The GPSMAP 3006C/3010C NMEA data transmission can be customized to change the precision of the Lat/Lon minutes, set up the waypoint IDs, and keep the output rate at two seconds. If the unit is set up to output all of the available NMEA sentences, the output rate may exceed two seconds. GPSMAP 3006C/3010C Owner's Manual Advanced NMEA Setup Page To change the advanced NMEA settings: 1. Press the NMEA Setup soft key to open the Advanced NMEA Setup Page. 2.
