means that Ockam variable H is read into the variable with Deckman
identification number 0 with the final column being ignored.
The [ockgps] section controls the GPS input on an Ockam instrument
system. X. is latitude, X is longitude. The figures in the middle column
are for error checking, with the data not being updated if the difference
between the new and old values is greater than this value.
The [magnum] section controls the output of data to Ockam Magnum
displays. The columns are:
1. Display
label
2. Ockam
identifier.
If there is a third column, then this text is sent as the label along with the
data.
For example, the line:
heel
H
will write out the variable with Ockam tag H (which is Heel) to the
Magnum with label heel.
[NMEA]
This section controls the input of data from an NMEA instrument
system. Note that this includes the B&G Hydra/h1000, Silva, NKE and
standard NMEA connections. The columns are:
1. NMEA
string
2. Field number within that string of the data you require.
3. The third column effectively specifies whether certain NMEA
strings are being used. Enter a 1 here for VWR or VWT, or any
other string in which an L or R determines the wind angle relative to
the bow. Enter a 2 here when using the MWV string, or any other
where the wind angle is specified 0-360 relative to the boat.
4. Deckman identification number.
For example, the line:
VHW 5 0 1
