4.9 Connection of Interface Unit CS-120A
With connection of navigator, the Interface Unit CS-120A and electronic fishing equipment,
the function of the CSH-83/84 series is expanded to include true motion presentation, target
lock, echo sounder picture, FNZ marker presentation and digital indication of position, water
temperature and depth. This chapter provides the information for interfacing the CSH-83/84
series with external equipment.
Connections for true motion and target lock
Heading (digital) and speed (200 pulses/nm) data are required to provide the true motion
and target lock functions. Both data are fed to the display unit via Interface Unit CS-120A.
Basically, there are three methods to feed the data:
• Heading data is fed to J205 from A/D Converter AD-100 and the speed pulse data to
J206 from the speed log.
• Both heading and speed data are fed to J207 or J204 from the CIF line of the
CI-30/50/60.
• NMEA signal is fed to J208 (NMEA port) or J207 (CI/NMEA port).

Note 1: AD-100 outputs two types of data. 200 ms interval is available.
Note 2: 200 pulses/mile ship’s speed data can be taken from a doppler sonar current
indicator.
