This message is transmitted at the beginning of the magnetic deviation
calibration process.
This message is transmitted upon successful completion of the magnetic
deviation calibration process (i.e., a new deviation table has been stored
in permanent memory).
The SSC300 attempts to perform calibration 5 times before giving up and
issuing this sentence. Each time the SSC300 encounters an error (see
message identifiers 04, 05, and 06) it restarts the calibration process.
th
Upon the 5
error, the SSC300 exits the calibration routine and it must
be restarted before it will once again try to perform deviation calibration.
During calibration, the vessel must not turn to fast where the SSC300 is
unable to reliably develop deviation data. If the SSC300 senses the
vessel turning to quickly, it will issue this message and restart deviation
calibration as long as it has not failed five times.
During calibration, the vessel must not turn to slowly where the SSC300
is unable to reliably develop deviation data. If the SSC300 senses the
vessel turning to slowly, it will issue this message and restart deviation
calibration as long as it has not failed five times.
During calibration, the vessel must not jerk or reverse directions where
the SSC300 is unable to reliably develop deviation data. If the SSC300
senses an invalid movement, it will issue this message and restart
deviation calibration as long as it has not failed five times.
The SSC300 transmits this sentence once after it is powered up to
indicate its serial number.
The SSC300 transmits this sentence once after it is powered up to
indicate its baud rate.
The SSC300 transmits this sentence once after it is powered up to
indicate its software version.
The SSC300 transmits this sentence once after it is powered up to
indicate its model version.
The SSC300 transmits this sentence once after it is powered up to
indicate its model identification.
