Advanced NMEA Output Setup
The GPSMAP 188/188C/238 Sounder NMEA data transmission can be customized to change the
precision of the Lat/Lon minutes, set up the waypoint IDs, and keep the output rate at two seconds. If
the unit is set up to output all of the available NMEA sentences, the output rate may exceed two sec-
onds. The ‘Advanced NMEA Output Setup’ page allows you to turn on/off the GPS status (GSA. GSV),
Waypoint/Route (WPL, RTE), and the Garmin Proprietary sentences. See page 95 for more information
on wiring and NMEA data.
Lat/Lon Minutes Precision allows you to adjust the number of digits to the right of the decimal
point for transmission of NMEA Output, either 2, 3 or 4 digits. The Waypoint ID setting lets you
choose to output the waypoint identifi ers as names or numbers.
To set up the Advanced NMEA page:
1. Highlight ‘NMEA In/NMEA Out’ in the Serial Data Format fi eld, and press MENU. Select ‘NMEA
Setup’ and press ENTER.
2. To change the settings, place the highlight over the desired fi eld and press ENTER. Make a
selection and press ENTER again to accept the selection.
