Advanced Operation
Selecting NMEA 0183 or NMEA 2000
Because only the VHF 200, VHF 200i, GHS 10, and GHS 10i are NMEA 2000-compatible,
this setting is only available on those units. This setting indicates whether you are connected
to a NMEA 0183 or NMEA 2000 network. The radio can only communicate over one
network type at a time.
1. Press the MENU key.
2. Select COMMUNICATIONS > PROTOCOL.
3. Select NMEA2000 or NMEA0183.
MMSI (Vessel) Filtering over a NMEA Network
Your radio can send call-related data over NMEA 0183 or NMEA 2000 when it receives
distress calls, acknowledgements to position request calls, and other position-send calls. You
can lter the MMSI numbers (vessels) for which your radio sends this data in three ways:
any MMSI number (all vessels), no MMSI numbers (no vessels), or select MMSI numbers
(vessels selected from your directory).
When you congure the radio to send data for select vessels, and you receive an
acknowledgement to a position request call or other position-send call from an MMSI
number not in your directory, your radio does not send NMEA data for that call. Distress
call information will still be sent. For more information about NMEA output from your
radio, see page 48.
Conguring MMSI Filtering for Select Vessels
1. Press the MENU key.
2. Select COMMUNICATIONS > DSC OUTPUT > SELECT VESSELS. You can also select
ALL VESSELS to send data when you receive a call from any MMSI number, or select
NO VESSELS to not send data for any MMSI number.
3. Select the vessel in your directory.
4. Select from the following options:
ON—the radio will send call-related data over your NMEA network when you receive
a distress call, an acknowledgement to a position request call or other position send
call from this vessel.
OFF—the radio will not send data for this vessel. Distress call information will still be
sent.
