Modifying NMEA output sentences
On the screen, the highlighted sentences will be output, as shown earlier
in Figure 25. Some devices can’t handle all of these sentences correctly, so
you can use this screen to customize the output by turning individual
sentences on or off. In general, you might want to turn on only those sen-
tences used by the particular equipment to which you’re interfacing the
961.
Figure 26 shows the PORT 1 OUTPUT SETUP screen where you can set
the output sentences to the factory default settings.
