Digital Yacht iKonvert NMEA 2000/0183 Gateway Converter
Digital Yacht iKonvert - NMEA2000 to NMEA0183 Converter (ISO)
Model: ZDIGIKVT
The iKonvert NMEA0183 to NMEA2000 Converter/Gateway is an intelligent and flexible gateway. Therefore allowing for new NMEA2000 equipment to talk to legacy NMEA0183 equipment. Conversions are bi-directional. For example, you may want to get the data from older NMEA0183 sensors on to your NMEA2000 network. Another reason being you have a new NMEA2000 only MFD and want GPS and Navigation data sent to your older NMEA0183 VHF and Autopilot. iKonvert can be used to accurately and intelligently carry out the required data conversions.
Real life applications could include connecting together a number of different makes and models of equipment plus many more. iKonvert has been designed to satisfy as many of these situations as possible. As a result, we have built in a simple but effective mode selection method, via a set of DIP switches inside iKonvert. Just remove two screws, open the iKonvert box and select the mode you need with a small screwdriver. The next time iKonvert powers up, it will automatically carry out the conversions you selected.
A number of modes already defined include; Heading, Sounder, AIS, GPS, Wind, Instruments and an all data gateway mode. This automatically sets the conversions to be done and the baud rate iKonvert will use. Furthermore, if you need a mode that we have not defined yet, just let us know and we will consider including it.
The iKonvert Gateway is compact and its housing is easy to mount. It features an integral NMEA0183 cable and standard NMEA2000 Micro drop cable (male). In addition, it takes its power from the NMEA2000 network. It also provides full galvanic isolation between the NMEA0183 and NMEA2000 networks. Hence, iKonvert is the perfect solution for all NMEA conversions.
The Digital Yacht iKonvert is expertly designed to bridge the gap between NMEA 2000 and NMEA 0183 marine networks. This gateway converter allows data from one system to be translated for use on the other, enabling smooth communication between older and newer equipment. Whether upgrading your boat’s electronics or integrating multiple sources, the iKonvert ensures effortless compatibility. Its reliable conversion facilitates interoperability and reduces wiring complexity, making it ideal for professional and recreational boaters who need consistent and accurate data exchange on the water.
Built by Digital Yacht, the iKonvert offers a compact, durable design suitable for harsh marine environments. Its weatherproof housing protects sensitive electronics, guaranteeing long-lasting performance even in challenging sea conditions. Installation is straightforward with clear wiring and configuration instructions, supported by comprehensive user manuals. This user-friendly design minimizes setup time, allowing boat owners and technicians to install the device efficiently. The converter’s plug-and-play nature, combined with configurable data translations, presents a flexible and streamlined solution that saves valuable time and effort on board.
The Digital Yacht iKonvert converter supports multiple data sentences and variables, ensuring comprehensive translation between NMEA 2000 and 0183 protocols. This includes essential navigational, environmental, and vessel information that aids in enhanced situational awareness. Its compatibility across a wide range of marine devices means users can connect chartplotters, radar, sensors, and other systems without concern for protocol mismatches. By providing real-time, accurate data transfer, the iKonvert allows for optimal system performance and safer navigation, reinforcing Digital Yacht’s commitment to reliable marine electronics solutions.
