Position And Time Display; Gps Information Display - Icom IC-M604A Instruction Manual

■ Position and Time display

When a GPS receiver (NMEA0183 ver. 2.0 or 3.01) is con-
nected, the transceiver displays the current position and
time. When no GPS receiver is connected, the transceiver
displays the manually entered position and time.
A GPS receiver appropriate for the IC-M604A is not supplied
from Icom. A GPS receiver in NMEA0183 ver. 2.0 or 3.01
format is required for position and time indication. Ask your
dealer about suitable GPS receivers.

➥ With a receiver that is compatible with several sen-
tence formats, the order of input precedence is 'RMC,'
'GGA,' 'GNS', 'GLL' and 'VTG.'
➥ When sentence format 'RMC' is received, the time dis-
play includes a date. Thus, the "UTC" or "Local" icon is
not displayed.
➥ "??" may blink instead of position and time displays
when the GPS data is invalid, or has not been manu-
ally updated for 4 hours.
➥ A warning alarm sounds when the GPS data has
been interrupted for 10 minutes, or has not been man-
ually updated for 4 hours.
