System conguration
Conguring the ECDIS
The ECDIS system must be set up with source type set to Autopilot, and the system must be
set up to listen for TNT messages.
Configure the ECDIS system to use the same primary sources as used by the AP80 system
(Log, HDG, SOG, COG and POS).
Refer to the software/system configuration in the ECDIS manuals.
Conguring the AP80
The SI80 board uses the serial RS422 (IEC 61162 -1/2) standard. Ensure that the line is
configured to use the same baud rate as the ECDIS system.
