2.4.2.2 Supported NMEA 0183 Baud Rates
The SSC200 compass supports NMEA0183 communication at both 4800 baud and 38400
baud. All SSC200 Compasses are shipped with a baud rate of 4800 baud. The baud rate may
be set to 38400 baud by connecting to the compass using a teminal emulator (See Appendix C
for details) and sending the following strings to the compass through the NMEA 0183
connection:
shell
This will cause the “cmd>” command prompt to be displayed
tm setbaud 38400
At this point, you must change the baud rate of your connection to 38400 baud to continue, as
the SSC200 has now been set to the higher baud rate.
