File Menu
The File Menu allows you to open, save, and print sensor configurations. The items in the File Menu work like most
Windows-based programs.
Comm Menu
The Comm (Communication) Menu allows you to set the port number, baud rate, and then connect and disconnect
from the sensor.
Setup: Opens the Comm Setup Window. Select the serial port to which the
sensor is connected from the drop-down list. Then select Auto (the program
determines the baud rate on its own) or Manual (you then enter the baud rate)
for the baud rate entry.
Connect: Select Connect to connect to the sensor to change or view the
configuration.
Disconnect: Select Disconnect to disconnect from the sensor.
Config Menu
The Config (Configuration) Menu allows you
configure the sensor as it is connected.

Configuration Window, shown to the right.
Many of the fields in this window should be left
alone. Please refer to the beginning of this
manual for clarification about some of these
fields. For the most part, this window is used to
enter a new latitude, longitude, and altitude for
the sensor. This is especially helpful when you
are programming the sensor for use in a
particular geographic location.
Resetting the Unit (Reset Unit) performs a reset
on the unit, much like cycling the power.
Resetting the non-volatile memory (Reset
NonVol) will clear all of the data from the non-
volatile memory.
NMEA Sentence Selections (F7): Displays the NMEA Sentence Selections
Window. If the sentence is enabled, a check mark appears in the box to the left of
the sentence name. Click the box to enable or disable to the sentence.
