Transmitting NMEA 0183 Data over a NMEA 2000 Network
You can turn on, congure, or turn off output bridging. Output bridging occurs when a chartplotter
takes NMEA 0183 data it receives from any source, formats it into NMEA 2000 data, and sends it
over the NMEA 2000 bus.
1. From the Home screen, select
Congure > Communications > NMEA 2000 Setup > Output
Bridging.
2. Complete an action:
Select On to enable output bridging from the chartplotter.
Select Auto to allow the chartplotters on the network to negotiate with each other to
determine which chartplotter will perform this function. Only one chartplotter on the network
can bridge NMEA 0183 data over the NMEA 2000 bus at a time.
All GPSMAP 6000 series and 7000 series units are NMEA 2000 certied.
