That's all that's needed to make the system a non-integrated one right?
:: To be clear, Tacktick would be "integrated", as it
:: calculates information such as true wind angle & true
:: windspeed from apparent boat speed, apparent wind angle,
:: and apparent wind speed.
::
:: Velocitek is not integrated, as it only recieves
:: information from the GPS and does its calculations
:: without further input (well, user input only). I'm not
:: familiar with Rockbox, but it sounds the same.
::
:: Instruments on board can tell you:
::
:: boatspeed
:: apparent wind angle
:: apparent wind speed
:: heading
:: depth
:: GPS information and anything computed within a single
:: device (location, SOG, computed distance, etc). Plugging
:: a GPS into any other device to get results would not be
:: allowed.
::
:: I think that's it, but I may have missed some...
::
:: As Will says, if you buy an integrated system, you are
:: on the honor system not to use anything but the
:: information listed above.
