Serial Output Configuration
Once you have finished the system installation,
configure the ADCU’s serial outputs for the
desired port speed and output type.
1. Press the center MENU button on the ADCU
to access the onscreen menu (see Figure 60).
2. At “Setup display type?”, press NEXT until
the display shows “Setup data outputs?”
Then press ENTER and press YES to confirm.
3. At “Set sine-cos levels?”, press NEXT until
the display shows “Set serial outputs?” Then
press YES.
4. At “Select serial port”, press NEXT until the
display shows the serial port number you
want to configure (1 or 2). Then press YES.
5. At “Set Speed”, use the - and + buttons to set
the speed of the serial port (1 Hz - 20 Hz).
Then press ENTER.
6. At “Resetting outputs?”, press YES.
7. Now you need to set the output type for the
selected serial port. At “Select output type”,
press NMEA, KVH, or CETREK to select the
corresponding output type.
8. If you selected NMEA, select the desired
NMEA message format(s). At “Select
output”, press NEXT until the display shows
the desired format (BWC, GGA, GLL, HDG,
HDM, HDT, VTG, or XTE). Then press YES.
You may select as many messages as you
wish. When you are done, press CANCEL.
9. If you selected Cetrek, and a GPS is
connected, select the desired heading format.
At “Cetrek data is”, press MAG to select
magnetic heading, or press TRUE to select
true heading. Then press ENTER.
NOTE: The baud rate for serial port #1 is always set
to 4800 baud. The baud rate for serial port #2 is
automatically set to 4800 baud (NMEA or Cetrek) or
9600 baud (KVH RS-422).
