The following is an excerpt from the documentation:

externally available control signals. The control signals can be used for
warning lights, alarm buzzers or to drive relays to switch lights or
equipment on/off. There are 4 signals available. NMEA parameter conditions
that can be tested a (Greater than), (Smaller than) and = (Equal).
Signals can be turned on or
off if the condition is "true".

If your Raymarine plotter is a C-series or E-series, you may want to have

Does anyone have a commercial solution for getting an alram out of the
raymaine chartplotters that can actually be heard. I know they sell
the seatlk to nema converter for this purpose, but I am told this will
not sound an alrm for anchor dragging. I bought the shipmodul
multiplxer but unfortunately this does not have switched outputs. Is
there a nema alarm sentence from the raymarine char plotter?

How do I access the 4 signals, I thought it only had RS-232 for the
output/
No, Brookhouse mux outputs are RS232, RS422, 2nd RS422 @4800
(speedconversion of AIS-C and AIS models), USB (optional). If the control
signal option is ordered, a separate 10" multi-core cable is brought out the
mux enclosure with a led already connected to output 1 for practicing the *C
directive. It is intended for the more technically oriented.

Thanks a lot for the information.
Unfortunately I ordered mine from Captn Jack's, I didn't know about
the signal option. Any chance I could solder those wires on myself?
