Detailed description

Konverter Actisense NGW-1 (šifra A80721), koji se prodaje pod brandom Raymarine, namijenjen je olakšavanju međusobne kompatibilnosti morskih uređaja koji koriste protokole NMEA 0183 i NMEA 2000 (SeaTalkng®). Omogućuje dvosmjernu transmisiju i primanje podataka, ključnu funkciju za integraciju heterogenih sustava na brodu.

Integracija sustava i kompatibilnost

Ovaj uređaj posebno je koristan za povezivanje trećih NMEA 0183 uređaja ili starijih Raymarine NMEA 0183 proizvoda s aktualnim Raymarine multifunkcijskim ekranima (MFD) koji imaju NMEA 2000 vezu. Osigurava kontinuitet navigacijskih podataka bez potrebe za potpunom zamjenom postojećih sustava. Za razliku od jednosmjernih konvertera, NGW-1 nudi fleksibilnost za složene konfiguracije.

Primjeri primjene i konfiguracija

Konverter Actisense NGW-1 podržava više scenarija integracije. Može, primjerice, povezati NMEA 0183 AIS jedinicu s NMEA 2000 MFD-om, prenoseći NMEA 0183 poruke kao što su VDO i VDM. Također omogućuje da NMEA 2000 MFD dijeli podatke o GPS poziciji (poruke RMC, DTM) s NMEA 0183 VHF radio uređajem. Obrnuto, NMEA 0183 VHF radio uređaj može slati podatke o selektivnom pozivu (DSC, DSE) na NMEA 2000 MFD. Konačno, omogućuje prijenos podataka o autopilotu (APB) s NMEA 2000 MFD-a na NMEA 0183 autopilot. Brzina prijenosa (baud rate) konvertera standardno je podešena na 38400, ali se može prilagoditi putem 'Actisense Toolkit' softvera na PC-u kako bi odgovarala specifičnim zahtjevima povezanih uređaja.

« NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000 integration: analysis of the Actisense NGW-1 converter »

The Actisense NGW-1 converter, distributed under Raymarine part number A80721, is a technical solution for integrating navigation systems. It is particularly useful for vessels equipped with a mix of NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000 (SeaTalkng) instrumentation. It allows NMEA 0183 sensors, VHF radios, or autopilots to remain functional when upgrading to a modern NMEA 2000 network, avoiding the cost of full replacement. This is a key component for a gradual upgrade approach in marine electronics.

Installation requires careful attention to NMEA 0183 wiring connections (TX/OUT A+/B-, RX/IN A+/B-) and the use of a DeviceNet to SeaTalkng adapter cable (models A06045 or A06075), which is not included, for connection to the NMEA 2000 network. Baud rate configuration, defaulting to 38400, can be adjusted via the 'Actisense Toolkit' PC software, adding an extra step for the installer. While this configurability is an advantage over simpler gateways, it requires technical expertise to ensure compatibility of NMEA sentences and supported PGNs.

This converter stands out for its bidirectional capability and extended support for NMEA 0183 sentences (AIS, GPS, DSC, autopilot) and NMEA 2000 PGNs. It is not a simple bridge but an intelligent interface capable of protocol translation. Limitations include the need to purchase adapter cables separately and potential complexity in software configuration for users unfamiliar with the Actisense tool. It is ideal for installers seeking to optimize connectivity in a mixed electronic fleet.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Contact us

What is the Raymarine A80721 converter?

The Actisense NGW-1 converter (reference A80721), marketed by Raymarine, is a device designed to enable bidirectional data transmission and reception between marine equipment using the NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000 (SeaTalkng®) protocols.

What is the main function of this converter?

The main function of this converter is to facilitate interoperability between nautical equipment of different generations or from different brands. It allows NMEA 0183 devices to connect to an NMEA 2000 (SeaTalkng®) network and vice versa, ensuring navigation data exchange.

Is the A80721 converter compatible with NMEA 0183 equipment from different brands?

Yes, the A80721 converter is designed to be compatible with third-party NMEA 0183 equipment. It allows you to connect these devices, or older-generation Raymarine NMEA 0183 products, to current Raymarine multifunction displays (MFDs) with an NMEA 2000 connection.

Can I connect an AIS NMEA 0183 device to a NMEA 2000 multifunction display with this converter?

Yes, this is a supported application scenario. The Actisense NGW-1 converter can link an AIS NMEA 0183 unit to a NMEA 2000 MFD, transmitting NMEA 0183 sentences such as VDO and VDM.

How to connect the converter to the NMEA 2000 or SeaTalkng® network?

To connect the converter to your NMEA 2000 or SeaTalkng® network, use a DeviceNet to SeaTalkng® adapter cable or a suitable DeviceNet cable. Ensure all devices are powered off before making connections.

What GPS data can the converter transmit from an NMEA 2000 MFD to an NMEA 0183 VHF radio?

In this scenario, the converter enables an NMEA 2000 MFD to share GPS position data with an NMEA 0183 VHF radio. The supported NMEA 0183 sentences are RMC (Recommended Minimum Specific GNSS Data) and DTM (Datum reference).

Can the converter transmit DSC data from an NMEA 0183 VHF radio to an NMEA 2000 MFD?

Yes, the A80721 converter supports this scenario. An NMEA 0183 VHF radio can send Digital Selective Calling (DSC) data to an NMEA 2000 MFD. The supported NMEA 0183 sentences are DSC (Digital Selective Calling information) and DSE (Expanded Digital Selective Calling).

What is the default baud rate of the converter?

The default baud rate of the NGW-1 converter is set to 38400.

Can the converter's transmission speed be adjusted?

Yes, the converter's transmission speed (baud rate) can be adjusted. This is done via the 'Actisense Toolkit' software on a PC connected to the converter, to match the specific requirements of connected devices.

How to ensure NMEA 0183 wiring connections are correct?

It is critical to refer to the instructions provided with your NMEA 0183 device and those of the converter to identify the correct signals. The wire colors of the converter and the NMEA 0183 device may vary. It is recommended to use crimp terminals and electrical tape for wire connections.

Is the converter bidirectional?

Yes, the Actisense NGW-1 (A80721) converter is designed for bidirectional data transmission and reception between NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000 devices.

Which types of Raymarine NMEA 0183 equipment can be connected?

The converter allows connection of previous-generation Raymarine NMEA 0183 products to current Raymarine multifunction displays (MFD) that use a NMEA 2000 connection.

Does the SeaTalkng™ network require a dedicated power supply?

Yes, the SeaTalkng™ network to which the converter is connected requires a dedicated 12 V DC power supply to operate correctly.

What to do if the NMEA 2000 LED is not flashing while the network is active?

If the NMEA 2000 LED is not flashing while the network is active, this may indicate a connection or compatibility issue. You should:

Check that the NMEA 2000 network cables are in good condition and properly connected. Verify whether the PGN messages you are attempting to transmit or receive are supported by the converter.

What to do if the NMEA 0183 LED does not flash when the device is active?

If the NMEA 0183 LED does not flash while the device is active, this may indicate a connection or configuration issue. You should:

Ensure the NGW-1 is correctly connected to your NMEA 0183 device. Check that the same baud rate has been set on both devices (the converter and the NMEA 0183 device).

Can the converter be used for complex setups?

Yes, the NGW-1 converter offers flexibility for complex configurations thanks to its bidirectional transmission and reception capability, unlike unidirectional converters.

Which NMEA 2000 PGNs does the converter support for transmission?

The converter supports transmission of the following NMEA 2000 PGNs, primarily related to AIS data:

129038: AIS Class A Position Report
129039: AIS Class B Position Report
129040: AIS Class B Extended Position Report
129041: AIS Aid to Navigation (AtoN) Report
129793: AIS UTC and Date Report
129794: AIS Class A Static and Voyage Related Data
129798: AIS SAR Aircraft Position Report
129801: AIS Safety-Related Message

Is it necessary to turn off the devices before making connections?

Yes, it is very important that all connections are made with the devices turned off to avoid any damage or malfunction.

Is the A80721 converter an Actisense or Raymarine product?

The converter is an Actisense NGW-1 model (reference A80721) marketed by Raymarine. It is therefore an Actisense product distributed under the Raymarine brand.
