Nmea Out 1 Thru 4 - Nmea 0183 Output Data Control - Leica MX400 Operating Instructions Manual

Configuration
Perpendicular Line:
Passing the waypoint is determined by reaching an imaginary
perpendicular line from your present course line.
Approach Alarm:
Causes an alarm to sound if your position is within the radius
defined in Approach Distance (below) when Yes is selected. To
disable the alarm, select No (the default condition) with the
Change softkey.
Approach Distance:
Sets the waypoint approach alarm distance (above) to sound if
your position is within the radius defined. The default setting is
0.30 Nm. This is a convenient tool for large boats and ships that
need to perform Transfer and Advance maneuvers prior to
reaching the waypoint.
Autopilot Alarm:
Causes an alarm when your position is outside the cross-track
error limit defined in XTE Limit (above) or when you change
course to a new leg in your route (manually or automatically
passing a waypoint) when Yes is selected. It also causes the
NMEA data records of APA, APB, and XTE to change their
reported status of Valid to Invalid when you reach the waypoint
of the current leg. This tells the autopilot not to use the data
from the receiver. When the alarm is canceled, which requires
your depression of the Cancel Alarm softkey (displayed during
the alarm condition), these data fields will revert to Valid data
and the autopilot will accept the receiver data again. This is
provided as a safety feature so that the boat does not turn
toward a new direction without your knowing of the impending
change. To disable the alarm, select No (the default condition)
with the Change softkey.
