Note: If you need to connect more than one item of NMEA equipment,
you will need to connect one of them to the SeaTalk system using a
SeaTalk/NMEA Interface (part number: E85001).
NMEA data formats
TheST4000+ can decode the following NMEA 0183 navigation and
wind data:
Information
Course Over Ground
Speed Over Ground
Cross Track Error
Bearing to Waypoint
Distance to Waypoint
Waypoint Number
Apparent Wind Speed
Apparent Wind Angle
Speed Through Water
Depth
Water Temperature
Note: The autopilot only decodes the last four characters of waypoint names.
This means that the last four characters of long waypoint names must be
unique for the waypoint advance function to work.
Transmitting NMEA data
Transmitting NMEA data on SeaTalk
If the ST4000+ receives any of the NMEA data shown above, and the
equivalent data is not present on SeaTalk, it will transmit the data onto
SeaTalk to make it available to other SeaTalk instruments:
• the ST4000+ transmits depth information in the units defined by
the first page in the data page rollover
• the ST4000+ always transmits water temperature in °C
Transmitting NMEA data to NMEA equipment
If you want to transmit information to NMEA equipment, you will
need to connect a SeaTalk/NMEA Interface (part number: E85001)
to the SeaTalk bus to convert SeaTalk data to NMEA data.
