NMEA 0183 devices can receive AIS data when connected to the M1 I/O (Sensors GPIO / NMEA 0183) expansion port.
The NMEA Baud rate can be changed via the Cortex Onboard™ App or from the H1 handset.
Using the Cortex Onboard App
- Select Menu (
) - Settings
- Device Settings
- Networks
- NMEA 0183...
- Baud rate (select)
Using the Cortex™ handset
- Select Main Menu ()
- Touch on the wrench icon (
) to open the Configuration Menu. - Networks
- 0183 (NMEA 0183)
- Baud In
- Baud out
HINT - AIS output requires a minimum of 38400 Baud rate.
Note - When connecting the M1 to NMEA 0183 devices, connect 0183 Common (Black) to the vessel's negative bus. This is to ensure a satisfactory grounding as the NMEA 0183 network of the M1 is isolated.
