NMEA 0183 Range You can be assured our NMEA 0183 product range is built to last. Our robust, high quality, intelligent designs surpass the NMEA 0183 specifications. Actisense NMEA interfaces enable users to get the most out of their instruments and on-board PCs. All of our NMEA 0183 products use our OPTO-isolation technology to protect both the NMEA ‘Talker’ device and the Actisense product from ground loops and power spikes. They also feature high quality screw connectors to make wiring up quick and simple. What is NMEA 0183? NMEA 0183 is the original protocol for sharing data between...

Actisense® NMEA 0183 Network Diagram Build your NMEA 0183 network with Actisense products NGW-1 • Converts between NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000 • Use NMEA 0183 products on NMEA 2000 networks Chart Plotter • Connects an NMEA 0183 talker to up to 6 listeners • Provides complete system integrity through total isolation • Multiplex or Autoswitch up to five NMEA 0183 devices • AIS compatible • Configurable data filtering • The safest method to connect a PC to NMEA 0183 NDC-4-ASW • Switches intelligently by analysing data quality • Special switching for GPS and Depth OPTO-4 • Adds isolation between an...

Flexible multiplexing, with preconfigured versions for Autoswitching or AIS operation. The NDC-4 provides complete access to all NMEA 0183 data sources, configurable filters to remove unwanted data, as well as enabling an on-board PC to read and add to the combined data stream. Benefits • Combine up to five NMEA 0183 data sources into one stream • Filter unwanted data The NDC-4 and NDC-4-USB allow up to five OPTO-isolated NMEA 0183 sources to be multiplexed into a single stream*. Separate ISO-DriveTM outputs allow two different downstream Talker baud rates to be created. Change data to a...

NMEA Buffer Safely drive up to six NMEA Listeners, with power distribution for the connected Talker. The NBF-3 NMEA Buffer isolates and buffers NMEA 0183 data, with the power to drive multiple devices. Able to distribute up to six identical, amplified streams of data from one source. The NMEA signals are buffered to ensure that each Listener receives the data at the required voltage levels, providing consistent data quality. • Simple installation Isolation on the input and outputs ensures the protection of the source Talker device and Listening devices. ISO-DriveTM technology on the outputs...

USB to Serial Gateway The USG-2 ensures safety and reliability when connecting a PC to your NMEA 0183 network. The USG-2 converts a USB port into a bi-directional serial port suitable for connecting to a marine standard NMEA 0183 data bus. It provides a far safer connection when compared to standard USB to serial converters. • Simple installation Electrical isolation is provided by the ISO-DriveTM output and OPTO-isolated input making installation simple and free from ground loops. • Eliminates ground loops The input uses the Actisense OPTO-isolation circuitry to protect any connected...

Active DST Module Breathe new digital life into transducers, with digital signal processing technology. The DST-2 digitises depth, speed and temperature transducer signals into NMEA 0183 data to deliver best-in-class seabed tracking. It works with NMEA 0183 compatible devices, such as chart plotters, radars or an on-board PC. In addition, it can be calibrated via a PC to match various sensors and installations. The DST-2 can be used with new or existing transducer installations. When used with an existing transducer the DST-2 can provide a secondary depth sounder as a back up to a new sonar...

NMEA to RS232 Opto-isolator Isolate an RS232 (PC) port to protect against ground loops. The OPTO-4 provides a safe and low cost way of connecting an NMEA 0183 system to a PC or any other device with a standard RS232 9-pin port. As a bi-directional NMEA 0183 to RS232 interface cable, the OPTO-4 utilises OPTO-isolation to protect the PC input and spike protection for the PC output, providing comprehensive isolation of PC hardware when connecting to an NMEA 0183 bus. If isolation in both directions is required, the Actisense USG-2 offers bi-directional isolation in a USB to RS422 (NMEA 0183)...

Product Accessories USB to DB9 Female RS232 cable (non-isolated) DIN rail mounting kit for use with NBF-3 and EMU-1. Use to replace unused cable glands on the NDC-4, NBF-2 and QNB-1. Sold in quantities of 20. USB cable to convert an NDC-4 to an NDC-4-USB (non-isolated) 9 pin, D type moulded cable assembly DIN rail mounting kit for use with USG-2. Covers for NMEA 2000 Micro connectors, female and male versions available Provides strain relief and splash proofing when using custom cables on the NGW-1 and NGT-1. Ground loops are very easy to create in an NMEA 0183 environment without even...

NMEA 2000® Range The simplicity of installing and configuring an NMEA 2000® network can reduce costs, with power and data shared on a single cable. Actisense have been working with the NMEA to develop the NMEA 2000® standard before it was officially released. This makes Actisense a go to authority for NMEA 2000®, our products are at the heart of the standard and its continued development. Actisense NMEA 2000® products are NMEA certified so you can relax knowing you have Actisense onboard. We have developed a range of products to make the transition from NMEA 0183 to NMEA 2000® as smooth as...
