Garmin gpsmap 5212 Manual De Usuario

Configuring the Device

Map Datum—set the coordinate system in which the map is structured. The default setting is WGS 

84. Do not change the map datum unless you are using a map or chart that specifies a different 

position format.
time—set the time options.

time Format—select 12-hour, 24-hour, or UtC time format.
time Zone—set the time zone displayed for time readings.
Daylight Saving time—select off, on, or auto. The auto setting automatically turns daylight 

saving time on or off, depending on the time of year.

From the Home screen, touch

NMea 0183 Setup—enable or disable NMEA 0183 output sentences for sounder, route, system, 

and Garmin NMEA settings.

Port types—configure the input/output format for each port to use when connecting your 

chartplotter to external NMEA devices, a computer, or other Garmin devices. NMea Std. 

supports the input or output of standard NMEA 0183 data, DSC, and sonar NMEA input support 

for the DPT, MTW, and VHW sentences. NMea High Speed supports the input or output of 

standard 0183 data for most AIS receivers. The Garmin option supports the input or output of 

Garmin-proprietary data for interfacing with Garmin software.
output Sentences—configure how the chartplotter sees NMEA 0183 output sentences. See  

Posn. Precision—adjust the number of digits (two Digits, three Digits, or Four Digits) to the 

right of the decimal point for transmission of NMEA output.
Waypoint iDs—determine how the chartplotter outputs waypoint identifiers (Names or 

Numbers).
Defaults—reset NMEA 0183 settings to their default settings.
Diagnostics—a tool used by installers to verify that NMEA 0183 data is being sent across the 

system.

NMea 2000 Setup—View and configure the devices connected to the NMEA 2000 network and set 

bridging to on, off, or auto.

Device List—lists the NMEA 2000 devices on your network. If a NMEA 2000 device has 

configuration options or settings, select the device for a list of options.
output Bridging—Output bridging occurs when a chartplotter takes NMEA 0183 data it 

receives from any source, formats it into NMEA 2000 data, and then sends it over the NMEA 

2000 bus. Touch 

 or 

 to enable or disable this function for the chartplotter. Touch 

 

to allow the chartplotters on the network to negotiate with each other to determine which 

chartplotter will perform this function. Only one chartplotter on the network will bridge NMEA 

0183 data over the NMEA 2000 bus at a time.

Marine Network—Review all connected Garmin Marine Network devices (

Wireless Devices—Allow wireless devices, such as a remote control or optical mouse to 

communicate with the chartplotter.
Preferred Sources—Assign a preferred device when more than one source is available for the same 

function.
