information on these screens is required please refer to the KMD 150
Installation Manual for all Stormscope

®

diagnostic related functions. If

you do not have a Stormscope

®

connected, ensure this option is

switched off.

Below the STORM-
SCOPE setting is the
GPS SOURCE setting.
This allows you to use
either the KMD 150's
internal GPS receiver or
an external GPS/LORAN
receiver. When you
move the cursor to the
right of this field the fol-
lowing Warning / confir-
mation request shall be
displayed:

If you press Abort the
GPS source remains unchanged. If you press Yes, you can use the joy-
stick to toggle the GPS SOURCE between INTERNAL and EXTERNAL.
When set to INTERNAL, the internal GPS receiver will be used. When
set to EXTERNAL, the KMD 150 will use data generated by an external
GPS/LORAN receiver.

NOTE:

If you are installing a non-GPS version of the KMD 150, the internal
option will not be available.

When KMD 150 is used with an external GPS source, the data output
will be limited to OFF and ECHO INPUT.

The second box is for information only and will only appear if the GPS
SOURCE is set to EXTERNAL or if the Stormscope

®

interface is

switched ON. If the Stormscope

®

interface is switched on, the presence

of incoming Stormscope

®

data is indicated by the word YES next to the

STORMSCOPE INPUT: heading.

EXTERNAL GPS DATA INPUT OPTION

If you are installing the non-GPS version of KMD 150 or as an alternative
to using the internal GPS receiver, an external GPS/LORAN is to be
used, the KMD 150 requires a data input to function in Map Mode. To
operate correctly the KMD 150 requires a 9600 baud Trimble TNL,
Garmin AIU or King equivalent ARNAV R-30 sentence. Alternatively a
4800 or 9600 baud NMEA 0183 data sentence containing latitude, longi-
tude, track, ground speed and variation information with an RMC header
may be used.
