• GPS Pos. Rate (Hz)
Represents the cycles per second (shown in Hz) that the display receives position information from the
receiver. (This is the same number as shown on GPS Rate (Hz) drop-down list menu located on the
General Tab).
• Output Rate (Hz)
Represents the cyclical rate (in Hz) at which the receiver sends information to the display. This field shows
a value of either 1 or ASAP.
- The default rate is 1 Hz.
- ASAP represents a Hz value of more than 1. (TSIP only)
• NMEA Messages
These check boxes represent various communication protocols or formats that have been set by the
National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA), and used in information "strings" or sentences output by
the GPS Receiver. At present, the display only uses two NMEA Message formats: GGA and VTG.
- GGA: This NMEA message format is the data fix that establishes your position in longitude and
latitude.
- VTG: This NMEA message format stands for ground speed (velocity) in area over distance
- GLL, GSV, GSA, ZDA, RMC, MSS: Leave these other NMEA message formats unchecked, unless you
are connected to a third-party monitor and have been directed to do so.
