The format used for database updates and to save optional MapSource CD-ROM data to an
installed data cartridge (also optional).

DGPS Beacon Receiver and automatically scan/tune beacon frequencies.
• NMEA OUT—
supports the input/output of standard NMEA 0183 version 2.30 data.
• Text Out—
supports a standardized, fixed-column ASCII output with data for position, track,
speed, etc.
• RTCM In—
allows Differential GPS (DGPS) input using a standard RTCM SC-104 format, without
any output capabilities.
• RTCM In/NMEA Out—
allows DGPS input using a standard RTCM format and also provides
NMEA 0183 version 2.30 output.
• RTCM In/Text Out—
