Advanced NMEA Output Setup

If you are going to interface the GPSMAP 376C with another
piece of equipment (such as a radar or autopilot), the unit needs
to be set to output NMEA data. The NMEA data transmission can
be customized to keep the output rate at two seconds. If too many
NMEA sentences are activated, the unit may take longer than two
seconds to update.
You can also set the Output Rate to Fast to output a minimum
number of NMEA sentences at one-second intervals.
To access the Advanced NMEA Output Setup:
1. Press MENU twice to open the Main Menu.
2. Use the ROCKER to select the Setup tab.
3. Select the Interface sub tab.
4. Highlight the Serial Data Format field, and press ENTER.
5. Select NMEA In/NMEA Out, and press ENTER.
6. Press MENU to open the options menu. Select Advanced
NMEA Setup, and press ENTER.
