Appendix
NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000
A GPSMAP 6000/7000 series chartplotter can accept data from both NMEA 0183 compliant devices
and certain NMEA 2000 devices connected to an existing NMEA 2000 network on your boat.
NMEA 0183
The NMEA 0183 data cable included with each GPSMAP 6000/7000 series chartplotter supports the
NMEA 0183 standard, which is used to wire various NMEA 0183-compliant devices, such as VHF
radios, NMEA instruments, autopilots, wind sensors, and heading sensors.
A GPSMAP 6000/7000 series chartplotter can receive data from up to four NMEA 0183-compliant
devices and send GPS data to up to six NMEA 0183-compliant devices.
To wire the GPSMAP 6000/7000 series chartplotter to optional NMEA 0183-compliant devices, see
the GPSMAP 6000/7000 Series Installation Instructions.
Approved NMEA 0183 Sentences
GPAPB, GPBOD, GPBWC, GPGGA, GPGLL, GPGSA, GPGSV, GPRMB, GPRMC, GPRTE,
GPVTG, GPWPL, GPXTE, and Garmin proprietary sentences PGRME, PGRMM, and PGRMZ.
This chartplotter also includes support for the WPL sentence, DSC, and sonar NMEA 0183 input
with support for the DPT (depth) or DBT, MTW (water temp), and VHW (water temp, speed, and
heading) sentences.
Conguring NMEA 0183 Output Sentences
You can congure how the chartplotter sees NMEA 0183 output sentences.
1. From the Home screen, select
Congure > Communications > NMEA 0183 Setup > Output
Sentences.
2. Select a setting:
Sounder, Route, System, or Garmin.
3. Select one or more NMEA 0183 output sentences.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to congure additional settings.
Setting the Communication Format for Each NMEA 0183 Port
You can congure the input/output format for each port to use when connecting your chartplotter to
external NMEA devices, a computer, or other Garmin devices.
1. From the Home screen, select
Congure > Communications > NMEA 0183 Setup > Port
Types.
2. Select an input or output port.
3. Select an input/output format:
Select NMEA Std. to support the input or output of standard NMEA 0183 data, DSC, and
sonar NMEA input support for the DPT, MTW, and VHW sentences.
Select NMEA High Speed to support the input or output of standard 0183 data for most AIS
receivers.
Select Garmin to support the input or output of Garmin-proprietary data for interfacing with
Garmin software.
4. Repeat step 3 to congure additional input/output ports.
