Digital Yacht SeaTalk1 to NMEA Interface [ZDIGSTN]

Digital Yacht's SeaTalk to NMEA (ISO) Converter is a compact yet potent interface. It enables two - way conversion between a SeaTalk network and an NMEA 0183 network or device. Powered by the SeaTalk network, with easy - to - follow red, black, and yellow wire color - coding, it features a reliable multi - transistor SeaTalk 1 interface, an opto - isolated NMEA 0183 input, and a differential NMEA 0183 output. This ensures seamless sharing of key navigational data between the two networks. For developers and advanced users, it can be set to a special “raw data” mode ($STALK), which is getting support in some Open Source projects. It's perfect for connecting to Digital Yacht's wireless NMEA servers, allowing SeaTalk users to go wireless. There's also a USB version available for direct connection to a PC, Mac, or Raspberry Pi embedded Linux system. Key features include bi - directional conversion (SeaTalk1 to NMEA and vice - versa), being powered by the SeaTalk network, reliable interface, and support for “raw data” mode. Typical connections involve direct connection to SeaTalk1 cabling and adding compatible wifi devices for integration. Specifications include an NMEA 0183 data interface, box dimensions of 2'H x 8'W x 8'L, weight of 0.4 lbs, and UPC of 081159830700.

Using this Digital Yacht SeaTalk1 to NMEA interface is easy. First, connect it to the SeaTalk1 cabling using the red, black, and yellow wires as indicated. If you want to add wifi capabilities, you can connect it to a WLN10HS for iPad and tablet integration or a WLN20 for AIS and SeaTalk to wifi systems. For those who want to access raw SeaTalk data, you can configure it to the “raw data” mode. When connecting the USB version to a PC, Mac, or Raspberry Pi, just plug it in and follow the device's prompts. As for maintenance, keep it in a dry place to avoid water damage. Check the wiring regularly to make sure there are no loose connections. And if you run into any problems, refer to the product's user manual or contact Digital Yacht's support team.
