Humminbird also offers the following accessories. Note that for installation on a large boat where
the receiver is located well away from the NS 10, you may need to purchase one or more 10'
extension cables before beginning installation. Other accessories enhance the performance and
capabilities of your NS 10, and can be added at any time.
For more information on these and other Humminbird accessories, contact your local Humminbird

NS 10 Interface Options
NMEA
The NS 10 has the capability of outputting position, speed, and course information to other
electronic devices such as plotters, radars, autopilots, etc. The NS 10 uses a standard format for
outputting this information called NMEA 0183. This standard is defined by the National Marine
Electronics Association, and is commonly used by most marine electronics manufacturers. The
NMEA interface specifications are as follows:
-The NS 10 uses port #6 to output information. Figure 31 shows the custom connector supplied to
adapt to other devices.
-Output current is 20 milliamps
-There are 4 sentences per attachment: GPAPB, GPGLL GPVTG, GPBWC. Each is transmitted
once every two seconds.
Note: The GPAPB and the GPBWC sentence is transmitted only when a route is active.
There are no proprietary sentences, and no unused fields.
-The schematic is illustrated in figure 32.
