Actisense NMEA 0183 to NMEA 2000 Gateway w/PC interface

Actisense NGX-1-ISO

NMEA 0183 to NMEA 2000 Gateway with PC Interface

The NGX-1 from Actisense is an NMEA certified device which can operate in two distinct modes, depending on user requirements.

In Transfer mode: The NGX-1 operates as an NMEA 2000 to PC interface, providing an easy way to link a PC to an NMEA 2000 network. In this mode it makes it possible for software applications to read and write to an NMEA 2000 bus while maintaining network integrity.

In Convert mode: The NGX-1 operates as a data converter, allowing the older NMEA 0183 networks & equipment to co-exist with modern NMEA 2000 networks. It provides a bi-directional facility allowing NMEA 0183 sentences to be converted into NMEA 2000 PGN messages, and vice-versa. A default set of conversions is pre-configured which covers most standard conversion requirements (including AIS conversion from NMEA 0183 to NMEA 2000). To adjust these conversions (e.g. to configure fast heading or bi-directional AIS)

Connecting to a Computer

Should you require to connect your NGX-1-ISO to a computer, you can attach an RS-422 serial converter, such as the Actisense USG-2.
