Supported settings

Use this page to determine which monitoring information, settings, and commands NaviGuard provides for each connected instrument model.

Model-dependent capability: Available information and controls depend on the connected instrument model and the installed NaviGuard software.

How to read the capability tables

Mark	Meaning
Y	The model provides the capability. Use the section below the table for its available choices.
R	Read-only. NaviGuard can show the confirmed value or state but cannot change it.
R-W	Read/write. NaviGuard can show and change the value through the model-specific settings path.
-	Not supported. NaviGuard does not show a control for it.

Lantern capabilities

Compare the four model-specific functions below. Monitoring information is documented separately and is not repeated in this settings matrix.

Operating mode

Operating Mode lets you select Automatic, Always On, or Always Off when the lantern supports this function.

Parameter Index Range Format Default Example

NAGMODE#

1..6

0..2

0 = Automatic

1 = Always On

2 = Always Off

NAGMODE1 0

Nominal range

Nominal Range is shown in nautical miles. The available choices depend on the selected lantern.

Parameter	Index	Range	Format	Default	Example
`NAGRANGE#`	1..6	Model-specific	Nominal range in nautical miles	-	`NAGRANGE1 5`

Flash characters

Primary and Alternate use the same Flash Characters list. Alternate and Select Active Character are available only when the connected model supports two stored characters.

Primary flash character

Parameter	Index	Range	Format	Default	Example
`NAGFLASH#`	1..6	Flash Characters supported by the selected lantern	NaviGuard ID	-	`NAGFLASH1 <id>`

Alternate flash character

`NAGLUXOFF#`	1..6	Values supported by the selected lantern	Switch-off level in lux	Current lantern value	`NAGLUXOFF1 <lux>`

Other instrument types

PowerMonitor, PowerGuard, breaker, Racon, and other instrument capabilities must be added as separate instrument-type sections. Do not infer settings or commands from a lantern model or from a telemetry value.

PowerMonitor provides current-based monitoring and alarms. It does not expose the connected lantern's internal settings.
PowerGuard power and battery information is monitoring data until a separate settings or command contract is approved.
Breaker and Racon settings and commands remain undefined until their instrument-specific contracts are approved.
