NMEA 0183 Interface
You can enable or disable each of the NMEA 0183 sentences sent by the sensor
and specify the number of seconds between the transmission of each sentence.
As you change the interval, the hertz (Hz) transmission rate will also change.
• Display Settings—Not Using WeatherCaster Software
Select the NMEA 0183 Display Settings tab to modify settings when not using
the WeatherCaster software (see Figure 33). These settings will be in effect
