DSC OPERATION
■ Position/Time indication
When a GPS receiver (NMEA0183 ver. 2.0 or 3.01) is con-
nected, the transceiver displays the current position and time.
When no GPS receiver is connected, the transceiver displays
the manually entered position and time.
A GPS receiver appropriate for the IC-M602 is not supplied
from Icom. A GPS receiver with NMEA0183 ver. 2.0 or 3.01
format is required for position/time indication. Ask your dealer
about suitable GPS receivers.
➥ A GPS receiver is compatible with several sentence for-
matters. The order of input precedence is ‘RMC,’ ‘GGA,’
‘GNS’ and ‘GLL.’
➥ When sentence formatter ‘RMC’ is received, time indi-
cation includes a date, and UTC time only.
➥ “??” may blink instead of position and time indications
when the GPS data is invalid, or has not been manually
updated after 4 hours.
