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...
Would a Yacht Devices voyage recorder do the sorts of things you're after?
@mresman sure, you can provide heavier gauge wire to bring proper voltage to other points on the network and use a power tap to 'inject' it there. Th...
You can isolate power on different segments of a N2K network. As in, just one data network, but different sections with their own power. There are p...
I've found that trying to make full use of combined features in various devices... is often a fool's errand. Both at home and on the boat. You can't...
