JRC1000 MkII Radar -which NMEA0183 version?

I don't know if this is the right area of the forum but cannot find anything about radar anywhere else. About 14 years back, I bought a new JRC 1000 MkII radar set, intending to fit it to my Tradewind 33. In the end I went with a Raymarine radar as it fit with the rest of the Raymarine equipment. I came across the JRC unit whilst having a clearcut during UKs first Covid lockdown. I was considering selling it on Ebay but then read that it is still a respectable little radar unit, particularly for smaller boats, so I have decide to try and fit it to my Parker 27. the Parker has all new SeatalkNG(STNG) equipment onboard, so to provide compass and position information to the radar unit, I need to fit a STNG (NMEA2000) to NMEA0183 Multiplexer. according to JRC, the unit either used version 1.5 or 2.0 of NMEA0183 but they do not know which. If it is 2.0 then the multiplexer I intend to use (Quark-Elec QK-A031) will be fine but if 1.5, it may not work. Does anyone have a JRC1000 radar fitted, and know where I can find out which version my radar would have installed. I don't want to go to the trouble of installing it if it is not going to work, but if there is somewhere on one of the display setup pages where I can find it then I could power up the display and check, but need to know where to look.
