Searider 14 August 2006, 09:29 I'm pretty sure they will accept input of NMEA position data. mark-f 14 August 2006, 09:33 The only other one I know of is northstar, but also check out Maretron as I heard a rumor that they were playing with a smartcraft - NMEA 2000 bridge which would then make any NMEA2000 plotter compatable (a much longer list!). Mark Under the Thumb 14 August 2006, 18:32 This is for Smart craft 2002 model and newer. From experience with my 150 Opti and smart craft, there is a blue(-) and a white (+) NMEA IN from the Spedometer harness which link to the corresponding + and - from your GPS NMEA out. I know this works for NMEA 0183, Hope there is something useful here for you Will Cookee 15 August 2006, 09:13 Can anyone tell me if Smartcraft are linkable to any GPS PLotter other than Navman products ? Yes they take a regular NMEA 0183 input to show the GPS speed on the Smartcraft instruments - however if you want Smartcraft instrumentation on the GPS in needs to be Navman for now! mark-f 15 August 2006, 09:41 Yes they take a regular NMEA 0183 input to show the GPS speed on the Smartcraft instruments - however if you want Smartcraft instrumentation on the GPS in needs to be Navman for now! Or Northstar if you want a "raymarine" type plotter with integration, but both are owned by brunswick anyway. http://www.northstarcmc.com/products/smartcraft/index.html mark |
