NMEA 0183 setup
The NMEA 0183 port must be set to suit the speed of connected devices, and can be be
confi gured to output only the sentences required by listening devices.
Receive waypoint
Select this option to allow device capable of creating and exporting waypoints via NMEA
0183 to transfer directly to the Zeus2.
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 the whether 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.
Commonly used sentences are enabled by default.
NMEA 0183 over Ethernet
The NMEA 0183 data stream is also output over ethernet, which is made available to tablet
devices and PCs, using the WiFi1 wireless adaptor.
The ethernet dialogue provides IP and port data typically required for confi guring the
application on the third party device.
