Changing NMEA 0183 Baud Rates Using the Vesper WatchMate App (Android)

The Watchmate devices are able to transmit and receive NMEA 0183 information at different Baud rates. 

 

This is a useful feature for connecting some devices to your WatchMate, such as heading sensors, that require a lower Baud rate (4800), while allowing the NMEA output to transmit AIS information that requires the faster (38,400) rate.

 

To change these settings on the WatchMate app open the app tap the top right icon. Next tap on My WatchMate.

Go to NMEA 0183 Settings, and here you can choose the Baud rates you require.
