Digital Yacht iKonvert w/USB Interface
Digital Yacht iKonvert w/USB Interface, p strong iKonvert with USB Interface strong p p The iKonvert NMEA2000-0183 Gateway Converter is an intelligent and flexible gateway for allowing software applications to read write NMEA2000 data either as RAW binary PGN data for ultimate analysis and control or converted to the older and more commonly supported NMEA0183 data p p Every popular Marine Navigation application that runs on PC MAC LINUX computers can read NMEA0183 data and for all of those programs iKonvert provides a simple reliable and cost effective way to access the navigation data on an NMEA2000 network Simply set the DIP switches inside iKonvert to the required data mode that you want to use and iKonvert will extract the selected data from the NMEA2000 network and provide them to your marine application in a format and at a baud rate they support p p For developers creating new applications or who know how to decode NMEA2000 PGNs iKonvert can be easily set to its ldquo RAW Mode rdquo where data can be read written to using a simple serial data format that we publish on our nbsp iKonvert Github site No special libraries or proprietary code are required to integrate iKonvert which has attracted the interest of a number of developers and it is already compatible with CanBoat and the popular Signal K Node Server p p Digital Yacht rsquo s iKonvert Gateway is housed in a compact and easy to mount housing with an integral USB cable and standard NMEA2000 Micro drop cable male nbsp Taking its power from the NMEA2000 network and providing full galvanic isolation between the USB interface and NMEA2000 network iKonvert operates at a baud rate of 230KB in ldquo RAW mode rdquo and 4 8KB 38 4KB or 115KB in NMEA0183 conversion modes All modes can be simply selected using the internal DIP switches with no special configuration software or firmware changes required p p iKonvert rsquo s USB interface features an FTDI chip that has the most reliable and compatible USB drivers for all of the popular operating systems Windows Mac LINUX Android whilst an ISO Version of iKonvert will soon be released for direct connection between NMEA2000 and NMEA0183 systems p p strong Features strong p ul li Small but powerful bi-directional NMEA2000 Gateway Converter li li Powered from the NMEA2000 network li li High Speed USB 2 0 USB Interface FTDI li li Compatible with Windows OSX LINUX and Android li li Can be configured to operate in ldquo Raw Mode rdquo Binary PGN data li li Converts all of the key navigational data li li Integral USB Type A and NMEA2000 Micro Male cables li li Simple configuration of data modes using DIP switches li li Full galvanic isolation li ul --- cis2 m2hrm5Rq ---
