Furuno FAX30 External Black Box Weatherfax  Navtex Receiver - Less Antenna [FAX30]

Ships Direct From Manufacturer

FAX30 External Black Box Weatherfax & Navtex Receiver - Less Antenna

Furuno's FAX30 can turn any NavNet display or PC into a Weatherfax and Navtex receiver. This waterproof "Black Box" unit connects directly to a NavNet display or an Ethernet hub with a single Ethernet cable. If it is connected to an Ethernet hub that has multiple 10.4" NavNet displays attached, each of those displays will have access to the FAX30. In addition, the FAX30 has the capability of being connected to a standard PC with an Ethernet card.

The unit itself receives valuable weather images and navigational information. When connected to a 10.4" NavNet display, the image and information are displayed directly on the screen, with softkey menu options for ease of use. On a PC, the images and information are displayed by simply using your Web Browser. There is no complicated proprietary software to install or learn. You can even print all of the information using your PC and printer!

Combine the FAX30 with NavNet's true color Radar and you have the ultimate in weather tracking. Now you can navigate more safely even during uncertain conditions.

Actisense PRO NMEA 0183 Buffer - 2 OPTO Inputs, 12 ISO-Drive Outputs, Serial Port, Ethernet Port, Pluggable Screw Terminal [PRO-BUF-2]

PRO NMEA 0183 Buffer - 2 OPTO Inputs, 12 ISO-Drive Outputs, Serial Port, Ethernet Port, Pluggable Screw Terminal

Two OPTO-isolated inputs and twelve ISO-Drive™ isolated outputs. Offering device protection and excellent flexibility, all in one product - the Actisense® PRO-BUF-2, the intelligent, type-approved PRO range buffer.

The PRO-BUF-2 is rugged, with a stainless steel housing, and provides isolation on all inputs and outputs. With two NMEA 0183 inputs, twelve NMEA 0183 outputs, a bi-directional serial port, and an Ethernet port, the PRO-BUF-2 is a perfect solution for larger leisure vessels, commercial shipping, and is a great addition for systems that require type-approved devices.

The PRO-BUF-2 is designed to suit the majority of NMEA 0183 systems and is ready to go ‘out of the box’ by simply hard-wiring the two-mode inputs as required.

The Intelligent NMEA 0183 Buffer's manually configurable basic modes of operation include variations of buffer modes, intelligent auto-switch, and combine modes.

For all other configurations, leaving the mode inputs floating selects the ‘User Configuration Mode’. The web-based configuration tool allows full customisation of the PRO-BUF-2, and is compatible across all popular Operating Systems. Using the web-based configuration tool allows for fine-tuning of the data available on each output.

To make installation quick and simple, the PRO-BUF-2 features 2-part pluggable connectors that allow the use of screw terminals*, and a professional DIN Rail mounting system (DIN Rail not included). The device can also be mounted directly to the bulkhead.

Helpful LEDs indicate power, data in, data out, and the alarm status to aid diagnostics.

Data statistics and load indication via the web tool provide a real-time view of data.

Features:

• 2 Opto-Isolated inputs
• 12 ISO-Drive NMEA 0183 outputs
• Ethernet Port
• Flexible operating modes
• Automatic Baud Rate matching on inputs
• Alarm output options
• Web-based configuration tool

• PRO-BUF can be configured using any web browser on any Operating system
• Works out-of-the-box without configuration for basic installations, or can be easily user-configured as required
• Relay output is compatible with on-board alarm systems, and the NMEA Alarm sentence can be displayed and actioned on an MFD
• Easy to access via network, doesn’t require the device to be moved or have a serial connection to the PC.
• A quick visual check gives the user confidence that each input and output is passing data
• Features can be utilised to fine-tune data, avoiding data overloads on the outputs and connected listeners
• Allows automatic data priority selection between two devices of the same type of data (e.g., GPS)
• Shows the NMEA 0183 on each I/O Port, and how frequently it arrives, great for low-level diagnostics

Actisense NMEA 2000 Engine Monitoring Unit - Analog to NMEA2000 Engine Gateway [EMU-1-BAS]

NMEA 2000 Engine Monitoring Unit - Analog to NMEA2000 Engine Gateway

Share engine information on the NMEA 2000 bus.

The Actisense EMU-1 is a specialized analogue to NMEA 2000 Gateway which converts data from analogue engine gauges/senders into NMEA 2000 data. The EMU-1 enables the sharing of engine data throughout the NMEA 2000 bus. It digitizes analogue engine sensors, enabling NMEA 2000 display devices to monitor the connected engine(s) on a vessel.

The EMU-1 can monitor vital engine parameters such as temperature, pressure RPM and fluid levels from up to two engines.

The EMU-1 has a PC-based configuration tool that allows the settings inside the EMU-1 to be changed to best suit the engine it is working with, making it a flexible solution for many engine makes and models.

An Actisense PC to NMEA 2000 Gateway (NGX-1/NGT-1) is required to configure the EMU-1.

The NGX-1 or NGT-1 must be used to update the firmware, connect the Toolkit and display data on a PC for diagnostic and information purposes, using NMEA Reader. Please visit the NGX-1 page and/or NGT-1 page for product details.

Features:

• Enables analogue signals to be converted to NMEA 2000 messages
• Convert signals from up to two engines (that share a common ground) with a single EMU-1
• 6 gauge / parameter inputs
• 4 alarm inputs
• 2 additional auxiliary inputs
• 2 Tacho inputs
• Customized IP65 case
• Diagnostic LED’s
• Wide power compatibility of 9 to 35VDC
• No need to change an existing engine
• Easy installation
• Easy to configure to suit the connected engine
• Connect signals from fluid level gauges (that share a common ground with the engine) to NMEA 2000®
• Optional DIN rail mounting kit available
• Total engine hours are logged by the monitoring of engine Tach (RPM) input
