There are things that can combine/share 0183 data. Yacht Devices makes a router that'll handle NMEA 0183 in-out and N2K.But understand that most rada...
I hear you, and hope you're correct, but as I work with more N2K and CAN bus devices I've learned not to assume anything when it comes to vendor imple...
Ask Garmin if the 1243 (I'm assuming you meant that, not 2143) is able to display engine data from the N2K bus, or if it's only capable of displaying ...
There's more than one question here. One being are the engines using their own individual J1939 buses or are they networked together? They could be ...
Agreed. Those are excellent observations.A side note, now that all these things are getting displays... how about some decent coordination between th...
True, but if it had native N2K there'd be no need to feed it anything, it could just pick it up straight off the N2K bus. That said, it's not until re...
Their IP handsets and other RoIP devices are certainly interesting. I have no idea why the forum won't let me post a URL to the VE-PG4 gateway. (ah...
The CT-M500 being used as a bridge for NMEA-2000 concerns me a bit. It's one thing to use WiFi for audio and intercom functions. But there are alread...
Curious that it depends on using a 'wireless' interface to make a connection to an NMEA-2000 network. But there's no manuals or literature online for...
I have two Yacht Devices interfaces, one each for my Cat C12 engines, along with the necessary J1939 Deustch adapter cables. Works nicely. Their web...
Interesting to know. Their small stainless dome looks interesting, but the price point seems steep, especially if it's just chinese stuff they're imp...
Some AIS units have their own GPS detection built-in (Furuno's FA-50 which I have on my boat, does this). It requires having a VHF antenna set up for...
Perhaps some sort of locked cabinet with something like a wire tamper seal could be used. Or a cover over a chart plotter than blocks off it's use, b...
Some (all?) AIS units can obtain their own GPS fix. Use one that doesn't connect to the rest of the network. If it doesn't have built-in GPS then wi...
