GPS requirement

The S1000 must receive GPS information to
function correctly. Use the Data Cable supplied,
to connect the Course Computer to a GPS, using
either of the following methods:
1. To a Raymarine GPS via SeaTalk connections.
2. To a Raymarine GPS via NMEA spur.
3. To a non-Raymarine GPS via NMEA spur.
NMEA Spur
When connecting NMEA data from an external source, always
connect via the NMEA spur on the Data Cable. Do NOT connect
NMEA data from an external source directly to the connector on
the Course Computer.
For details of the NMEA Spur
connections, refer to Diagram D
Each time power is applied to an S1000 Autopilot connected to a
Raymarine GPS (via NMEA or SeaTalk), the S1000 will set the GPS
filtering to WEAK.
