Garmin DGPS beacon receiver.
garmin remote Sonar—supports the input/output of a

Garmin remote sonar device.
nMEa in/nMEa out—supports the input/output of

standard NMEA 0183 version 3.01 data and sonar NMEA

input support for the DPT, MTW, and VHW sentences.
aviation in—the proprietary format used for connection

to a Garmin panel-mounted GPS receiver. Allows the

GPSMAP 496 to show a Go To or route selected on the panel-

mounted GPS receiver. This eliminates the need to enter the

destination on both units.
aviation in/nMEa & VHF out—receives aviation data

and transmits out both NMEA data, at 9600 baud, and VHF

frequency tuning information to a Garmin Nav/Comm radio.

you can control a differential beacon receiver directly from your

GPSMAP 496 using the Interface sub tab. You can have the unit

automatically scan for the DGPS beacon signal, or you can enter

the beacon frequency and bit rate on the unit, and the information is

used to tune the beacon receiver. If you use a DGPS receiver, WAAS

capability is automatically turned off.
