Positioning system
You can connect the PI54 to a
positioning system by means of
NMEA1 or NMEA2. In order to set
up the PI54 to receive the
information, observe the following
procedure.
A typical setup page is shown. For
more detailed information about the
parameters, refer to the operator
manual.
1 Ensure that the serial line between the PI54 and the
positioning system is connected. Also, make sure that the
positioning system is powered up and operational.
2 Power up the PI54. Once up and running, press the
MENU button to open the main menu.
3 Press 4 to open the Setup menu, and 3 to open the
Interface setup dialogue. Allow the PI54 some time to
scan through the available i nputs.
4 Press the PAGE+ button twice to open the Position
dialogue.
5 Observe that the PI54 has detected the positioning system.
- The setting Source will show the name or identification
of the external system. Typically, the setting will read:
Source (one available).
- The name, identifiaction and/or input connector is
shown on the next line.
- Note that if more than one positioning systems are
detected, all will be listed.
6 If more than one positioning system are listed, move the
cursor to the system you wish to use, and press the ENT
button to select it.
7 If only one positioning system is shown, it is
automatically selected by the PI54.
8 Press the ENT key to acknowledge the setting and exit.
If Source is set to None, the most likely reason is that you have
a problem with the wiring.
