[LW] [LW11] connecting an A70D chartplotter to a NASA GPS repeater

[Louise - Raymarine - Moderator]

Dear adamcovell,

Thank you for your post.

A AIS transceiver typically has its own dedicated GPS source and cannot use the GPS source that is for the network.

You can use the GPS source for the AIS to supply the network with GPS data when sending out on NMEA0183 on a low baud rate.

I would expect to see 2 GPS antennas in this case and looking at your diagram the AIS unit is connected only on 38400 baud rate keeping the GPS solely for the AIS.

Many Thanks
Louise
