Page 252 Serial ports are still a very common method for interface between maritime systems. It is very important that any serial line between the TV80 and any external system is setup correctly with identical parameters at each end. The NMEA (National Marine Electronics Association) standard for serial communication defines standard parameters for such interfaces.
Page 253 Functions and dialog boxes A parity bit, or check bit is a bit added to the end of a string of binary code that indicates whether the number of bits in the string with the value one is even or odd. Parity bits are used as the simplest form of error detecting code. [...] In serial data transmission, a common format is 7 data bits, an even parity bit, and one or two stop bits.
