panel of the CommBox-ACU.
c. Connect the data cable's ground wire
(attached to the grounding sleeve) to the
ground screw on the rear panel of the
CommBox-ACU.
Connect a NMEA 0183 Talker

supplied) to the supplied 2-position terminal
strip connector as shown in Figure 42. Make
sure the device is configured to transmit one
of the following messages at 4800 baud to
provide true or magnetic heading:
• $--HDG
• $--HDM
• $--HDT
