Also, secure cables close to the unit. 8 NMEA Bridge Operation and Installation Handbook Chapter 3: Operation/Wiring 3. 1 NMEA Output Providing you have the appropriate SeaTalk instrumentation, the data listed below is transmitted in NMEA 0183 format for use with non-SeaTalk equipment.

NMEA 0183 data is also re-transmitted on NMEA "OUT" in response to NMEA "IN". This allows non-SeaTalk equipment to be connected directly to the SeaTalk bus. Note: Data will not be transmitted to SeaTalk if it is already on present on the SeaTalk bus.
