Silva NMEA

This operates mainly as a standard NMEA instrument system (see page
7.15) except that you are able to write back Deckman data to the
displays.

Output

The default outputs are those illustrated in the example below. The
variables column shows the Deckman variable, the chan shows the
Silva channel (1 to 3) and the data column shows the current data for
the variable. The text in the Name column is associated with the channel
number, and this cannot be altered. In other words, the Deckman name
is not written out with the data to the displays. If you wish to output
different variables, then you must be careful which channel you assign
these to since the label on the display may not identify the variable.
