The BDM control input accepts tuning commands in either NMEA 0183
format messages or Magnavox MX-50R-compatible binary control com-
mands. For details, see Section 10.1.1, "NMEA 0183 format control mes-
sages" on page 43. The port characteristics are listed below.
Signal type: RS-232-C or RS-422
•
Data format: NMEA 0183 or binary control commands.
•
Baud rate: 4800 or default of 9600 (8 bits, no parity, 1 stop bit),
•
jumper-selectable
The BDM monitor input port accepts the same messages as the BDM con-
trol input port. The port characteristics are listed below.
Signal type: RS-232-C or RS-422
•
Data format: NMEA 0183 or binary control commands
•
Baud rate: 9600 (8 bits, no parity, 1 stop bit)
•
The BDM monitor output port provides status output messages in ASCII
format. The port characteristics are listed below.
Signal type: RS-232-C or RS-422
•
Data format: ASCII status messages
•
Baud rate: 9600 (8 bits, no parity, 1 stop bit)
•
The auxiliary input port is used to receive RTCM SC-104 V2.1 differential
correction messages. The port characteristics are listed below.
Signal type: RS-232-C or RS-422

•
jumper-selectable
The output port is used for BDM control functions as well as for future
uses. The port characteristics are listed below.
Signal type: RS-232 or RS-422
•
Data format: NMEA 0183 or binary control commands
•
Baud rate: 300 to 38400, default of 9600 (8 bits, no parity, 1 stop bit),
•
jumper-selectable
The primary input port supports communications via the NMEA-1083
V2.0 and CMC Binary protocols. The port characteristics are listed below.
Signal type: RS-232 or RS-422
•
Data format: NMEA 0183 or binary control commands
•
Baud rate: 300 to 38,400, default of 4800 (8 bits, no parity, 1 stop bit),
•
jumper-selectable
