Signal converter INT-0058

digitalNMEAfor ships

The INT-0058 Digital to NMEA Interface converts digital ‘on/off’ signals into NMEA data suitable for recording on a Voyage Data Recorder (VDR). Typical inputs are watertight door status, fire alarm status, and navigation equipment alarms. Many of these systems will have an on/off or open/closed indication in the wheelhouse which can be converted to NMEA in the INT-0058. With bridges needing to support an increasing number of indicators, and their associated wiring, the INT-0058 is ideal for both new-build and retrofit installations. The interface outputs data simultaneously through NMEA 0183 and UDP (Ethernet) protocol and is easy to connect to various equipment such ECDIS, VDR and RADAR. Features LED Status indication on all inputs and outputs NMEA Pass through facility Supports IEC 61162-450 and CAN Bus mode (Optional).
