Simrad SimNet
6 20222006 / Rev. A
SimNet accepts multiple sources of equivalent data and
automatically selects the preferred sources for a group of
integrated Simrad products. Alternative sources can be selected
manually.
The SimNet accessory program offers a wide selection of parts
necessary to complete a professional installation. The cable
system, designed with small plugs at both ends is easy to run,
requiring only 10 mm (3/8”) holes through bulkheads and panels
(page 44).
1.2 Integration of SimNet and NMEA2000
products
SimNet’s flexibility enables the interface of NMEA2000
certified SimNet products into a NMEA2000 data network. Only
a single NMEA2000 to SimNet drop cable is required, and this
cable is part of the SimNet accessory program (page 44).
SimNet products on a NMEA2000 network
(backbone)
On a NMEA2000 data network with other manufactures certified
products, all Simrad products will benefit from the advanced
SimNet P&P software which automatically sets up the data
sources that each Simrad product needs – not only data supplied
from other Simrad products, but also data supplied from other
manufactures products via NMEA2000.
