Hi all,

In another thread related to this topic, Rainier stated this on a query to set up NMEA GPS port baud rate

I have an Odyssey 2 operating in my RV8. It has run flawlessly for years.
I was hoping to replace my ELT with an ARTEX 345, but the ARTEX requires 4800 Baud NMEA. I do not see where I can change the baud rate on the Odyssey to 4800 for the NMEA RS232 port.

I only see 9600/19200 for baud rate selection on this menu and the ARTEX 345 requires 4800 Baud (which is the standard for NMEA 0183)
