The Actisense® NGW-1 is an intelligent Gateway that converts NMEA 0183 data to
NMEA 2000® (and vice versa), allowing you to share information between devices
from the two standards. This creates the possibility of upgrading some of the
vessel’s electronics to NMEA 2000® and keeping the remaining NMEA 0183 devices.
NMEA2000® to NMEA 0183 Gateway is the easiest way to link between a boats old
and new data networks. The NGW-1 converts NMEA 0183 data into NMEA2000® data and
vice-versa. Once the single cable NMEA2000® gateway has been installed data from
any node on the bus can be listened to by any other, including any NMEA 0183
instruments connected using an NGW-1. The NMEA2000® network acts like a
bi-directional multiplexer, allowing all data sources to talk and listen to each
other. Multiple NGW-1 units can be used to multiplex numerous NMEA 0183 devices
onto the NMEA2000® network, using the network as a means of combining and
transferring all data items from one place to another.
The Actisense® NMEA Reader software utility allows the NGW-1 user to view and
understand (in detail) the translated NMEA 0183 sentences output by an NGW-1
directly.
NGW-1-AIS: gateway is the NMEA 0183 AIS option. This is a pre-configured version
of the standard NGW-1-ISO that enables the conversion of NMEA 0183 AIS data to
its equivalent in NMEA2000®. This provides an ‘out of the box’ solution for
quick installation with no configuration required. Visit the Actisense® website
and download the conversion list to see which AIS conversions the unit can
perform.
INSTALLERS NOTE:
NGW-1 will convert NMEA2000® data to NMEA 0183 and vice versa but every
application must be checked against Actisense®’s conversion list of PGN’s the
latest NGW-1’s firmware is capable of handling. This list details exactly what
NMEA 0183 sentences can be converted into NMEA2000® messages, and what NMEA2000®
messages can be converted into NMEA 0183 sentences.
