Installation DL2 Doppler Speed Log System
If input is shown, then the system will colour code the headers to show if the data is recognised,
and correct, recognised and not correct, or not recognised/used
All channels will detect inputs and automatically use those that are recognised

$PSKPSLP,<target SFI>,<sleep value>*hh
command added for setting system to sleep or waking up. <target SFI> can
be JB’s SFI or SFI of a display paired with JB of a particular system, <sleep
value> is “1” or “0”, “1” - sleep
A number of proprietary inputs may also be present (particularly on the LAN channel) to communicate
with the display and JB70 unit
NMEA sentences transmitted
(talker) IEC 61162-1:2016(E) (NMEA 0183) messages:
Speed and distance
Name Description Example
VHW Water speed and heading
(In a DL21 “SOG only” mode VHW will show water
speed from DL1)
$VDVHW,,,,,x.x,N,x.x,K*hh <CR><LF>
VLW Dual water/ground distance sentence
x.x = Total trip (Water), y.y = Trip (Water)
Ground distance
a.a = Total Distance (Ground),b.b = Trip (Ground)
(In a DL21 “SOG only” mode VLW will show water trip
and total from DL1)
$VDVLW,x.x,N,y.y,N,a.a,N,b.b,N*hh<CR><LF>
VBW Dual ground/water speed
x.x= Longitudal water speed (knots, “-”=astern)
y.y= Transversal water speed (knots, “-”=port)
A= Status Valid data
V= Invalid data)
z.z= Longitudinal ground speed (knots, “-”=astern)
u.u= Transversal ground speed (knots, “-”=port)
p.p= Stern Transv water speed. Not used on DL2(Empty)
s.s= Stern Transversal ground speed (knots, “-”=port)
In a DL21 “SOG Only” mode VBW x.x will show data
from DL1 STW (y.y will be empty)
$VDVBW,x.x,y.y,A,z.z,u.u,A,p.p,V,s.s,A*hh <CR><LF>
VBWX Dual ground DL2/water DL1 speed
In a DL21”SOG+STW” mode
VBWX will show VBW data from DL2
+ d.d= Longitudal water speed from DL1
$PSKPVBWX,x.x,y.y,A,z.z,u.u,A,p.p,A,s.s,A,d.d,A*hh <CR><LF>
Temperature
Name Description Example
MTW Water temperature $VDMTW,x.x,C*hh<CR><LF>

Name Description Example
CUR Water current
x.x=Current speed in knots
B=Bottom track (P=GPS)
$VDCUR,1.1,3.0,,Tx.x,y.y,,T,B*hh<CR><LF>
Water current function is only available with 3 valid sea calibrations and installation angle oset in place.
