Icom IC-M505 Marine Radio User Manual


 
Position and time indication
When a GPS receiver (NMEA0183 ver. 2.0 or 3.01) is con-
nected, the transceiver displays the current position and time.
When no GPS receiver is connected, the transceiver displays
the manually entered position and time.
A GPS receiver appropriate for the IC-M505 is not supplied
by Icom. A GPS receiver with NMEA0183 ver. 2.0 or 3.01 for-
mat is required for position and time indication. Ask your
dealer about suitable GPS receivers.
When the connecting GPS receiver is compatible with
several sentence formatters, the order of input prece-
dence is ‘RMC,’ ‘GGA,’ ‘GNS’ and ‘GLL.’
When sentence formatter ‘RMC’ is received, time indi-
cation includes a date. Thus the ‘UTC’ or ‘Local’ indica-
tion is not displayed.

” may blink instead of position and time indications
when the GPS data is invalid, or has not been manually
updated after 4 hours.
