How to determine device protocols
#1
I have OP installed on my Pi 3B+ with a Sense Hat, am learning Node Red and starting to make progress. I'm trying to figure out how to get my knot meter into the mix. 

My sloop has a traditional thru-hull paddle wheel knot meter, and I have climbed through all the documentation I can find without locating a single reference to its communication protocol. Do I assume based on its era of manufacture (late 80's/early 90's) that it is NMEA 0183? Do most devices include the protocol in their documentation, or is there a better location or method to determine it? 

Here is a link to the device in question - any help appreciated on how to register it in OP:
