Besides its fundamental function of
displaying position, the GP-150 can also
output various data to external equipment.
Before outputting data to external equipment,
first determine what data the external
equipment requires. Output only necessary
data to ensure data will be output correctly.
All data transmitted by marine electronics
equipment are prefixed with a two character
code called a talker. The same talker must
be shared by the transmitting and receiving
equipment to transmit and receive data
successfully. The GP-150 transmits data
using the GP (GPS talker), however it can
also transmit using the Loran (LC) or Decca
(DE) talker.
Because the GP talker is a relatively new
system some early model equipment may
not recognize this talker.
