It is possible to connect an NMEA Listener to the NGW-1 Talker port and a different NMEA Talker to the NGW-1 Listener port. Note that both NMEA 0183 devices connected to the NGW-1’s NMEA 0183 port must have the same baud rate set...

The NMEA 2000 network is Galvanically isolated from the NMEA 0183 side of the NGW-1. The non-USB variants are also isolated between the NMEA Talker and the NMEA Listener...

The NGW-1 supports all versions of NMEA 0183. Devices that use RS232 or RS422 voltage levels are accepted and connections that use ground or differential connections are suitable. The NGW-1 automatically adapts to the electrical requirements of the connected devices...

The NGW-1 Conversion Lists are available on the download page – there is one list for the standard firmware variants (NGW-1-ISO, NGW-1-USB and NGW-1-STNG) and one list for the AIS firmware variants (NGW-1-ISO-AIS and NGW-1-USB-AIS)...

All ISO-Drive variants (NGW-1-ISO, NGW-1-ISO-AIS and NGW-1-STNG) are completely powered from the NMEA 2000 network and have an NMEA 2000 LEN of 1 (50 mA or less). Once connected to a powered and terminated NMEA 2000 network, the NGW-1-ISO LEDs will flash...

All NGW-1 variants have a standard NMEA 2000 drop cable and connector (DeviceNet M12, A polarised, male Micro C) for direct connection to an NMEA 2000 backbone T-piece or adapter cable for manufacturer proprietary networks...

If you want to use the NGW-1 with NMEA 0183 waypoint names, they have to be purely numeric – e.g. a valid waypoint name is “73”, an invalid name is “waypoint 73” in order for the NGW-1 to correctly convert it to NMEA 2000. This is because NMEA 2000 waypoint names can only be numeric (at their lowest level). Converting NMEA 2000 waypoint names to NMEA 0183...
