Actisense NMEA 0183 to NMEA 2000 Gateway

The Actisense NGX-1 is a versatile and intelligent gateway designed to bridge the gap between NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000 data standards. This innovative device allows you to seamlessly share information between devices from both standards, making it an essential tool for upgrading your vessel's electronics. With its ability to convert data bi-directionally, the NGX-1 ensures compatibility and cost-effective integration, reducing the initial upgrade cost and spreading it over time.

Technical Specifications and Features

The NGX-1 features OPTO-isolation on the input and ISO-Drive technology on the output, providing a safe and reliable interface for NMEA 0183 or RS232/RS422 devices. With advanced configuration options via the Actisense Toolkit, you can easily set up transmit and receive lists and rates. The device supports fast-heading at 10Hz and offers a high baud rate of up to 230,400, ensuring fast and efficient data transfer. Additionally, it comes with an integrated 0.75m ISO cable and diagnostic LEDs for easy troubleshooting.

Practical Applications and Benefits

The Actisense NGX-1 is ideal for boat owners looking to enhance their vessel's electronic systems without the need for a complete overhaul. By integrating NMEA 2000 devices while keeping existing NMEA 0183 devices, you can enjoy the latest technology while maintaining compatibility. This gateway also enables the use of feature-rich software applications, replacing or complementing dedicated hardware like Multifunction Displays (MFDs) or Chart Plotters. With its low power consumption and direct power supply from the NMEA 2000 network, the NGX-1 is a convenient and efficient solution for any marine electronics setup.
