Catalog excerpts

NMEA 2000® to PC Interface Interface your PC to the NMEA 2000® bus with a functional firewall gateway. A Software Development Kit (SDK) is also freely available for software developers to use in creating software applications that can fully interact with an NMEA 2000® network, its devices and its data. The Actisense NGT-1 makes it possible to send and receive NMEA 2000® data safely between a PC and an NMEA 2000® network. This creates the possibility of feature rich software applications replacing or complementing dedicated hardware such as a Multifunction Display (MFD) or Chart Plotter. Taking its power supply directly from the NMEA 2000® network (ISO variants) or from a PC (USB variants) removes the need for a separate power supply, reducing installation time and complexity. The freely available diagnostic software NMEA Reader from Actisense uses the NGT-1 to display all devices active on the network and all of the data messages flowing between them. The powerful set of tools that NMEA Reader offers the user can instil a better understanding of the network and help diagnose potential network issues. The USB variant offers the easiest method of connecting to a PC, whilst the ISO variant is available for customers who prefer a serial interface that does not require USB drivers. • rovides a rule-enforcing firewall P between the PC and NMEA 2000® bus • onfigure and flash-update C Actisense products on the NMEA 2000® bus • se with our FREE NMEA U Reader to help diagnose network problems (see page 26) • Sends and receives pure NMEA 2000® data (no conversions are applied) Features: ital NMEA 2000® V diagnostic tool SB version – isolated USB U input/output SO version – OPTO-isolated I input and ISO-DriveTM output p to 115,200 baud data U transfer rate 500V isolation on both 1 input & output A2K-TER-M Active Research Limited is registered in England, Company number: 3295909.
