Good diagrams and description here: 2000 mets 2011 presentation. If you don't see it on either plotter - then either your N2K network isn't connected properly (check the connection on each tee), or it doesn't have power, the terminating resistors aren't connected or you've got the device installed incorrectly (e.g. It doesn't have the bandwidth to transmit full Sonar images, radar etc.Īssuming you have your NMEA2K backbone connected correctly, and both plotters are connected - if you go into the plotter settings, and look at the Network - you should see your "devices" in particular the fuel flow sender. like depth, GPS position, fuel flow, temperature etc.). It's a highly reliable network but given those speeds, it's limited to transmitting lower speed data (e.g. You should insist on this service when placing an order in the first place. NMEA2K is a relatively low speed data connection that transmits at 250kbps compared to the Ethernet network at 100Mbps. Step 1: Making the family known to each other First of all, if you do not install a completely new network of equipment in your boat, mostly your boat dealer (when it is a new yacht) or the workman installing new parts will initialize equipment and calibrate this.
you need to install both the Male and Female terminating resistor at the end of your NMEA backbone. NMEA 2K backbone needs it's own 12v power to power up devices like the fuel flow sender - there should have been a power "tee" in the kit you have plotters, power etc) connect from the top of the "tee" for the NMEA backbone, any devices (e.g. Personally, I'd get the NMEA network running properly before you install the Ethernet cables so you don't end up making the troubleshooting more difficult. I just did a NMEA2K and Ethernet install on my Lowrance units so might be able to help.
