Detailed description

Pretvornik Actisense NGW-1 (referenčna številka A80721), ki ga trži Raymarine, je namenjen olajšanju medsebojnega delovanja opreme za navigacijo, ki uporablja protokola NMEA 0183 in NMEA 2000 (SeaTalkng®). Omogoča dvosmerno prenos in sprejemanje podatkov, kar je ključna funkcionalnost za integracijo heterogenih sistemov na krovu.

Integracija sistemov in združljivost

Ta naprava je posebno uporabna za povezavo tretjih osebnih NMEA 0183 naprav ali prejšnje generacije Raymarine NMEA 0183 izdelkov z aktualnimi multifunkcijskimi prikazovalniki (MFD) Raymarine, ki imajo povezavo NMEA 2000. Tako zagotavlja kontinuiteto navigacijskih podatkov brez potrebe po popolni zamenjavi obstoječih sistemov. Za razliko od enosmernih pretvornikov, NGW-1 ponuja fleksibilnost za kompleksne konfiguracije.

Scenariji uporabe in konfiguracija

Pretvornik Actisense NGW-1 podpira več scenarijev integracije. Na primer, lahko poveže enoto AIS NMEA 0183 z MFD NMEA 2000, ki prenaša stavke NMEA 0183, kot so VDO in VDM. Omogoča tudi, da MFD NMEA 2000 deli podatke o položaju GPS (stavki RMC, DTM) z radijskim sprejemnikom VHF NMEA 0183. V nasprotno smer lahko radijski sprejemnik VHF NMEA 0183 pošlje podatke o klicnem številskem sistemu (DSC, DSE) v MFD NMEA 2000. Končno, omogoča prenos podatkov o avtopilotu (APB) iz MFD NMEA 2000 v avtopilot NMEA 0183. Hitrost prenosa (baud rate) pretvornika je privzeto nastavljena na 38400, vendar jo lahko prilagodite z uporabo programske opreme 'Actisense Toolkit' na PC, da ustrezate specifičnim zahtevam povezanih naprav.

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

The Actisense NGW-1 converter, sold 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, thus avoiding the cost of full replacements. This is a key component for a gradual approach to marine electronics upgrades.

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. While the baud rate is set by default to 38400, it can be adjusted via the 'Actisense Toolkit' PC software, adding an extra step for the installer. This configuration flexibility is an advantage over simpler gateways but 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 the potential complexity of software configuration for users unfamiliar with the Actisense tool. It is ideal for installers seeking to optimize connectivity in a heterogeneous electronic fleet.

Frequently asked questions

Need help? Contact us

What is the Raymarine A80721 converter?

The Actisense NGW-1 converter (reference A80721), sold 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 primary function of this converter?

The primary function of this converter is to facilitate interoperability between nautical equipment from different generations or 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 an 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 allows 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. 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 baud rate of the converter be adjusted?

Yes, the baud rate of the converter 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 wire connections are correct?

It is crucial to refer to the instructions provided with your NMEA 0183 device and those of the converter to identify the correct signals. The colors of the converter wires and the NMEA 0183 device may vary. It is recommended to use terminals and insulating 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 Raymarine NMEA 0183 devices can be connected?

The converter allows you to connect older-generation Raymarine NMEA 0183 devices 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 blinking while the network is active?

If the NMEA 2000 LED is not blinking 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 trying to transmit or receive are supported by the converter.

What to do if the NMEA 0183 LED does not flash while 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 configurations?

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 are supported for transmission by the converter?

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 Aids to Navigation (AtoN) Report
129793: AIS UTC and Date Report
129794: AIS Class A Static and Voyage Related Data
129798: AIS Search and Rescue (SAR) Aircraft Position Report
129801: AIS Safety-Related Message

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

Yes, it is critical that all connections are made with devices powered off to prevent 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.
