NGT-1 NMEA 2000® a PC.
Interface your PC to the NMEA 2000® bus.
The NGT-1 is an intelligent NMEA 2000 gateway able to precisely Transfer messages to and from the NMEA 2000 bus.
It is compatible with a wide range of Chartplotters, display and configuration applications available for PCs.
The NGT-1 is available in two versions:
• NGT-1-USB: standard option – USB interface for bi-directional connection to a PC.
• NGT-1-ISO: specialist option – Opto-isolated input and ISO-Drive output for a direct PC bi-directional connection.
*The NGT-1 is retiring soon – check out the new and improved NGX-1 for enhanced NMEA 2000 PC connectivity.
Fully NMEA 2000 Certified
The handy firewall feature enforces the NMEA 2000 bus rules, so software developers can create compliant software at a fraction of the direct certification costs.
The supporting Actisense Software Development Kit (SDK) helps to reduce the required development time.
With the upcoming ‘Third Party Gateway’ status, leading chart plotter software will be able to be certified to work with the NGT-1.
The diagnostic NMEA Reader software allows viewing of NMEA 2000 messages with configuration options, enabling some set-up of Actisense products on the NMEA 2000 bus.
