NMEA DATA PAGE

The NMEA Data page is very useful to see if an external device (example: Depth Sounder)
is transmitting NMEA sentences to the GPS Chart Plotter. This page can also be used to see
if the GPS Chart Plotter NMEA Output is being loaded down by an external NMEA device
the GPS Chart Plotter is connected to. Example: A VHF radio is connected but the radio is
not receiving a GPS Position. Usually the VHF radio will be connected to the Green and
Brown wires. To check to see if the GPS Chart Plotter is transmitting the sentences:
1. Press [MENU], move the ShuttlePoint knob to highlight NMEA DISPLAY and press [ENT].
2. Move the ShuttlePoint knob to highlight DATA and press [ENT].
3. The NMEA DATA page is shown.
4. Connect the Blue Wire on the GPS Chart Plotter to the junction of the Brown wire and
the VHF wire. The display should look similar to the following picture.

CP300/CP300i VIDEO INPUT

By accessing this menu it is possible to see images on the CP300/CP300i display from an
external video signal source, if connected to the CP300/CP300i. It allows the "picture-in-
picture" functionality, so a Video Input image can be shown on a window or overlaid on top
of the Chart, Navigation, Highway, Celestial and NMEA pages image at full screen.
If the Video Input signals is not detected (E.g. the video camera is not connected to the Video Input
connector), the VIDEO INPUT menu item will be greyed out.
