Simrad products
Simrad products that are also SimNet products, are identified by
their product name (e.g. CP34) and a SimNet number. Products
with a startup display will present the name and the SimNet
number. On other products, the SimNet number is the same as
the last 6 digits of the product serial number.
If you have 2 equal products in the system they may be
appointed a device instance number. This number will be
presented after the product name, e.g. CP34-1 and CP34-2. Refer
to the product manual for details.
Example: CP34-1 Chartplotter S/N004651 or short CP34-1
S/N04651
Identification of NMEA0183 or Robnet2 products
In the source/interface setup on products with NMEA0183
and/or Robnet2 (autopilot) interface capability, you can read
what DataType is selected and from which port.
- NMEA0183 input will be identified as NMEA-x, where x
is the physical NMEA0183 port number.
Example: Navigation NMEA-1.
- Robnet2 devices will be presented by “name”-0, Robnet2 is
always port number 0. Example: Compass RATE-0.
- NMEA0183 products that are interfaced via AT10 will be
identified as an AT10 source. A device instance number
can be added to identify each AT10 if more than one are
connected. Default is AT10-0.
Example: Navigation AT10-1, Depth AT10-2.
NMEA2000 products (other manufactures):
These are identified with a short acronym (SimNet DeviceName)
and the instance number e.g. NAV-2 (see Appendix 3 for
details).
Also the name (max 32 characters) of the other manufacturers
product will in most cases be available for better identification of
the product, e.g. xxxx Airmar Transducer.
