2.10 NMEA DATA PAGE
The NMEA Data Page is very useful to see if a External device (example: Depth Sounder)
is transmitting NMEA sentences to the GPS Chart Plotter. This page can also be used to
see if the GPS Chart Plotter NMEA output is being loaded down by a external NMEA device
the GPS Chart Plotter is connected to. Example:
VHF Radio connected but the radio is not receiving a GPS Position.
Usually the VHF radio will be connected to the Green and Brown wires. To check to see if
the GPS Chart Plotter is transmitting the sentences:
1. Press [MENU]. Move the ShuttlePoint knob to highlight
NMEA DISPLAY and press
[ENT].
2. Move the ShuttlePoint knob to highlight
DATA and press [ENT].
3. The
NMEA DATA page is shown.
4. Connect the Blue Wire on the GPS Chart Plotter to the junction of the Brown wire and
the VHF wire. The display should look similar to the picture below.

2.11 CP300/CP300i VIDEO INPUT
By accessing this menu it is possible to see images on the CP300/CP300i display from an
external video signal source, if connected to the CP300/CP300i.
It allows the "picture-in-picture" functionality, so a Video Input image can be shown on a
window and placed over the Chart, Navigation, Highway, Celestial and NMEA pages image
at full screen.
NOTE
If the Video Input signals is not detected (E.g. the video camera is not connected to the Video Input
connector), the VIDEO INPUT menu item will be grayed out.
2.11.0 Video Camera Input
The CP300/CP300i has one connection for video camera. Any NTSC or PAL camera will
operate correctly. To connect use the video output of the camera and connect to the optional
ACVC10 cable.
2.11.1 VCR or DVD Input
A VCR or DVD may be connected to Video port. The CP300/CP300i does not have speakers
so the audio from the VCR or DVD would have to be routed to a stereo system.
STANDARD HORIZON offers an optional cable called ACVC10 that allows any VCR or
DVD to simply be plugged into the CP300/CP300i.
