Boat Forum / Electronics / March 2007How to get Alarm with Raymarine Chart Plooter
Does anyone have a commercial solution for getting an alram out of the raymaine chartplotters that can actually be heard. I know they sell the seatlk to nema converter for this purpose, but I am told this will not sound an alrm for anchor dragging. I bought the shipmodul multiplxer but unfortunately this does not have switched outputs. Is there a nema alarm sentence from the raymarine char plotter? Bob Uh, which model chartplotter? And where did you read it doesn't trigger on the anchor alarm? > Does anyone have a commercial solution for getting an alram out of the > raymaine chartplotters that can actually be heard.

Bob There is an option available for the Brookhouse NMEA multiplexer, that allows testing of any NMEA data value and user-control of 4 signals that can switch a lights (leds), buzzers or relays. The following is an excerpt from the documentation: · Testing of NMEA parameter values and setting or clearing of externally available control signals. The control signals can be used for warning lights, alarm buzzers or to drive relays to switch lights or equipment on/off. There are 4 signals available. NMEA parameter conditions that can be tested are: > (Greater than), <(Smaller than) and = (Equal). Signals can be turned on or off if the condition is "true". The complete document is here: http://www.brookhouseonline.com/pdf%20files/NMEA%20filtering%20and%20manipulation.pdf If your Raymarine plotter is a C-series or E-series, you may want to have a look at this: http://brookhouseonline.com/pdf%20files/Mux_AIS_C.pdf Wout > Does anyone have a commercial solution for getting an alram out of the > raymaine chartplotters that can actually be heard.

If the control signal option is ordered, a separate 10" multi-core cable is brought out the mux enclosure with a led already connected to output 1 for practicing the *C directive. It is intended for the more technically oriented.

Unfortunately I ordered mine from Captn Jack's, I didn't know about the signal option. Any chance I could solder those wires on myself?

I've given you the links for Brookhouse. The standard Brookhouse mux is $149.00 The control signal option is $25.00 If you need BT, a simple 4800bps plug-in module is available for $45.00. For BT with many configurable options and baudrates, use an AIRCABLE module for $69.00 (order direct from aircable).

Bob Wout, I have the Brookstone multiplexer with usb wiring. Is the control signal option retrofittable? Ansley Sawyer | Wout, | | I have the Brookstone multiplexer with usb wiring.
