Uploading Waypoints from Other Devices

The CDU will accept waypoints from any device which follows the
WPL formats identified earlier in the Waypoint section. The first two
characters following the $ can be any NMEA defined talker ID. You
do not have to calculate and include the checksum; however, you
must end each data record with a carriage return and line feed. If you
do include the checksum at the end of the data record, the CDU will
verify the checksum. If the checksum is invalid, the waypoint will be
rejected.
Waypoints received on the data port will be stored to the waypoint
location specified in the WPL record. If the waypoint location speci-
fied in the WPL record is already occupied, the CDU will overwrite
the existing waypoint (if it is unlocked). If the existing waypoint is
locked, the WPL record received on the input port will be ignored
and dropped.
The CDU will only recognize waypoints from one input port at any
given time. This port is defined in CFG1 WPT & RTE In.
