NMEA 0183 version 2.0 data.

RTCM/NEMA - allows Differential GPS (DGPS)
input using a standard RTCM-
104 format and also provides
NMEA 0183 version 2.0 output.
RCTM In - allows DGPS input using a standard
RCTM-104 format without any output
capabilities.
RTCM Text - allows DGPS input using a standard
RTCM format, without any output

To select an input/output format:
1. Highlight the Format field and press ENTER.
2. Select the desired setting using the arrow keypad and press
ENTER.
3. If the GARMIN format is selected, highlight the Transfer
Mode field and press ENTER. Select the desired setting

vided to control a GARMIN GBR 21 beacon receiver
directly from your NavTalk. You can enter the beacon fre-
quency and bit rate on the NavTalk and the information will
be used to tune the beacon receiver. For more information,
refer to owners manual for the GBR 21.
