Bridge NMEA Heading

The

seriesdisplays bridge NMEA input data to the SeaTalk bus (see

Section 8.8). The Bridge NMEA Heading option can be used to prevent
NMEA heading data being bridged onto the SeaTalk bus.

For example, if you have a course computer connected on SeaTalk and
NMEA, and an active compass connected on NMEA (for MARPA), SeaTalk
data overrides NMEA data in the course computer. You should therefore
switch OFF the Bridge NMEA Heading option to ensure the course computer
receives the same NMEA heading input as the radar system.

NMEA Out Set Up

This option lets you switch off individual NMEA out sentences.

Cursor Echo

You can set up an integrated system so that radar and chartplotter displays
connected via SeaTalk can display each other’s cursors.
Cursor echo functions so that you can display a chart cursor on the radar
picture, or a radar cursor on the chart picture (you cannot display a remote
radar cursor in a radar window nor a remote chart cursor in a chart window).
When the appropriate options are switched on, each display shows its own
cursor, plus the cursor of the other display with appropriate cursor text (RDR or
CHT) to indicate its origin. This means that you could move the cursor over a
target on the radar display, and check the identity of the target by looking at the
radar cursor position on the chartplotter.

Press the CURSOR ECHO soft key to display the cursor transfer soft keys. The
following options can be toggled ON or OFF:

Radar Cursor In: displays the cursor from another radar on the chart dis-
play or chart window (default - OFF).

Chart Cursor In: displays the cursor from another chartplotter on the
radar display or radar window (default - OFF).

Note: The remote display must have SeaTalk Cursor Out enabled. Raymarine
recommend that in multi-display systems, you do not enable Cursor Out on
more than two displays. If multiple displays have cursor out enabled, the cur-
sors will not be displayed simultaneously, but will flash on/off.

SeaTalk Cursor Out: enables the output, onto SeaTalk, of the display’s
own cursor (default - OFF).

Cursor Echo Local: echoes the cursor position between open windows on
the same display (default - ON).

If you set the options to OFF, no cursor echo information is displayed.
