NMEA 0183 equipment

The SPX-5 Wheel system can connect to NMEA devices such as a GPS or
chartplotter.

Data bridging

The SPX-5 Wheel system acts as a bridge between SeaTalk and NMEA, allowing
NMEA and SeaTalk devices to share information.
For example, the information received from an NMEA GPS could be shared with a
SeaTalk instrument to provide a separate Course Over Ground display.

NMEA 0183 / Connecting other manufacturers' equipment

When connecting Raymarine equipment to other equipment using a non-
Raymarine cable, you MUST attach an appropriate suppression ferrite to the
cable near to the Raymarine unit.
When connecting third party equipment refer to the manufacturer's instructions
for cable details.
You should not connect more than one piece of equipment to the Course
Computer NMEA input.
