• You are familiar with NMEA and other relevant datagram formats.
• You know how to set up the parameters for serial and local area network (LAN)
communication.
• The interface port is set up with the correct communication parameters.
• The SN90 system is turned on and operates normally.
• The new sensor is physically connected to the SN90 system using a serial or network
cable. The sensor is turned on and in normal operation.
Neither tools nor instruments are required.
Context
Note
The input from a course gyro is essential for operation. Without the input from a course
gyro, the SN90 system will not be able to present correct navigational information. This
lack of compensation will prevent the system from providing correct echo information.

sensors and systems. You must specify which communication port to use (LAN (Local
Area Network) or serial port). You can type a custom name to identify the sensor import.
In the list of valid datagram formats, select the format(s) to be accepted by the SN90
system. For each relevant sensor you must insert the offset values that define the its
physical location relative to the vessel's coordinate system.
