NMEA can be logged and/or viewed using the NMEA Viewer window, although any ASCII RS232
port viewer will suffice. This allows the user a convenient place to monitor the NMEA output. To get
to the NMEA Viewer window, from the main StarUtil menu click on TOOLS\NMEA VIEWER as
shown in Figure 35.

Figure 36 shows what a typical NMEA data output would look like in the viewer. The NMEA Viewer
contains a Browse button so data can be logged to any media device that can communicate with
the data port.

A second instance of StarUtil must be run, and connected to the Data Port in order for the
NMEA Viewer to display the NMEA data messages.
