10 Installation

NMEA2000 (300-L model only)

With the supplied cable connected to the NAIS-00,

connect the other end into the supplied T-connector, then

connect this into the vessels NMEA000 network.

2.5 NMEA0183-HS (

RS232 supplied

)

This data cable is used to connect the NAIS-00 to a PC

or laptop in order to configure it, and for AIS enabled PC

chartplotter applications. For further information regarding

the wiring of this cable please refer to chapter .

2.6 NMEA0183-HS (

RS485 not supplied

)

This data cable is used for connectivity to AIS enabled

chart plotters and other marine equipment with an

NMEA018-HS interface. For wiring information, refer to

Figure .1.

(NMEA0183-HS is specified at 38.4kbaud and is not

compatible with conventional NMEA0183, which operates

at the lower speed of 4800baud)

2.7 Transmit disable switch (

not supplied

)

Any momentary action, push to make switch can be used.

Take a wire from each terminal of the switch and wire

them into the connector. Refer to figure .1. Because

there is negligible current drawn through this cable, any

suitable two core cable will do, providing it forms a good

seal once inserted in the grommet. Refer to section 4..

2.8 GPS antenna

The antenna, ideally needs to be mounted as low

as possible with a clear view of the sky to minimise

errors due to movement over and above the transitory

movement of the vessel.

The GPS antenna is capable of being flush mounted on

a suitable flat area of the cabin roof or deck area. In

this configuration, fit the supplied rubber gasket under

the antenna and use the four threaded studs, nuts and

washers to fix the antenna down.
