Position and time indication

When a GPS receiver (NMEA0183 ver. 2.0 or 3.01) is con-
nected, the transceiver displays the current position and time.
When no GPS receiver is connected, the transceiver displays
the manually entered position and time.
A GPS receiver appropriate for the IC-M504A is not supplied
by Icom. A GPS receiver in NMEA0183 ver. 2.0 or 3.01 format
is required for position and time indication. Ask your dealer
about suitable GPS receivers.

With a receiver that is compatible with several sentence
formats, the order of input precedence is 'RMC,' 'GGA,'
'GNS,' 'GLL' and 'VTG.'
When sentence format 'RMC' is received, the time dis-
play includes a date. Thus, the "UTC" or "Local" icon is
not displayed.
"??" may blink instead of position and time displays
when the GPS data is invalid, or has not been manually
updated for 4 hours.
A warning alarm sounds when the GPS data has been
interrupted for 10 minutes, or has not been manually
updated for 4 hours.
