HDS Gen3 Installation Manual
Upgrading module firmware
The files page also allows the loading of CZone module firmware
updates. For further information refer to
“NMEA 2000 and Ethernet
device upgrades” on page 52
NMEA 0183 setup
The NMEA 0183 port must be set to suit the speed of connected
devices, and can be configured to output only the sentences
required by listening devices.
Receive waypoint
Select this option to allow a device
capable of creating and exporting
waypoints via NMEA 0183 to transfer
directly to the HDS Gen3.
Baud rate
This should be set
to correspond with
devices connected to
the NMEA 0183 input
and output. The input
and output (Tx, Rx) use
the same baud rate
setting.
Note:
AIS transponders typically operate at NMEA 0183-HS (high
speed), and will require the baud rate to be set to 38,400.
Serial Output
Selection will determine whether the data is output via Tx lines, and
will enable editing of the output sentences list.
Serial Output Sentences
This list allows control over which sentences need to be transmit
to other devices from the NMEA 0183 port. Due to the limited
bandwidth of NMEA 0183 it is desirable to only enable the data that
is required. The less sentences are selected, the higher the output
rate of the enabled sentences.
