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.
