Yacht Devices YDTA-04
Tank Adapter YDTA-04
The NMEA 2000 Tank Adapter YDTA-04 allows you to connect up to four of existing resistive or voltage type fluid level sensors installed on tanks and display the fluid level on NMEA 2000 devices, including chart plotters.
The Adapter can be configured to report one of the seven fluid types defined in the NMEA 2000 standard: Diesel Fuel, Gasoline Fuel, Oil, Fresh Water, Waste Water, Black Water (Sewage), or Live Well. The tank number can be configured up to 16 tanks of one type are allowed in an NMEA 2000.

Yacht Devices YDRI-04
Run Indicator YDRI-04
The Run Indicator is designed for visualizing and monitoring electrical current and voltage in up to four independent DC circuits connected to Device's terminals. Voltage and current data can be viewed on NMEA 2000 displays to check the state of manually switched loads (e.g. navigation lights) and to ensure that equipment that is turned on is actually functioning (current flows through the load).
Current and voltage data can be used to configure the Device to manage the channels of an NMEA 2000 digital switching system. For example, to raise a sound alert or to turn some equipment on or off. The Device can also report how long a load was on, how often the load was switched over a specified period or whether switching falls within a specified frequency — which is useful for analyzing the operation of fresh water or bilge pumps and to detect leaks or flooding.

Yacht Devices Autopilot YDAP-04
Autopilot YDAP-04
The Autopilot is a course computer and actuator control unit in a single housing. It can control vessels up to 40' and 12 tonnes displacement. It can control a hydraulic pump or a reversible linear drive with electric clutch, providing 10A maximum continuous current (16A peak) and 12/24 volt supply.
For minimal installation, apart from the drive, you will also need the NMEA 2000 network or SeaTalk NG network with the heading sensor and rudder angle sensor. In the simplest case, the Autopilot can be controlled with five (or even two, STANDBY and AUTO) buttons connected to its terminals. Feedback from the Autopilot can be obtained using internal LEDs and external LEDs and buzzer connected to the unit's terminals. We do not yet offer finished control panels, so you can make your own using the design and buttons you like.

Yacht Devices Voyage Recorder YDVR-04
Voyage Recorder YDVR-04
Use Voyage Recorder to keep GPS tracks, wind, depth, temperature, AIS and all other data which flow through the network backbone collected during all your voyages in the season. Never forget exciting moments of your voyages, have proof of strong winds and great storms, accumulate data for future voyages, analyze your races, generate logbooks and diagnose problems.
The Recorder is intended for storing data from the onboard network of the vessel on a MicroSD memory card. The onboard network of a typical cruise yacht has data about the position, course, speed, depth, water temperature, log, wind speed and direction, and AIS data of nearby vessels. Digital data from the motor, water and fuel tanks, battery level, etc. may also be available. The Recorder writes all network data into the memory card. It does not analyze the data, leaving that work for the software application that runs on personal computer. Because of that, the Recorder supports all message types broadcasted through the network by any other equipment present on the vessel's network. See the list of data types already supported!

Yacht Devices Battery Monitor YDBM-02
Battery Monitor YDBM-02
The device reports measured voltage and current, calculated health and charge state, and user programmed static data (e.g. nominal capacity and chemistry) to NMEA 2000 and can turn on the genset or warn when the battery state is critical.
The Battery Monitor can be used with any single DC source (i.e. alternator, wind generator, etc.) or load (windlass, refrigerator, etc.), but it is primarily designed for monitoring a vessel's battery. To operate as intended, it requires an appropriate external shunt (not supplied with the Device); shunts in the range from 5A to 1200A are widely available. It can be configured to use data from a NMEA 2000 thermometer connected to the battery to detect the charge state and health more accurately and report temperature along with voltage and current data.

Yacht Devices J1708 Engine Gateway YDES-04
J1708 Engine Gateway YDES-04
A gateway for engines with a J1708 serial interface to a NMEA 2000 marine digital network. With it, you can see engine revolutions, temperature, working hours, fuel rate and other information on the screen of a chart plotter and other display devices on an NMEA 2000 network.
The Gateway supports three protocols that work over J1708:
* the standard J1587 used by many manufacturers (e.g. Caterpillars with ATA Data Link, like 3176B, 3412C and 3408C models);
* the proprietary Volvo Penta protocol used in engines with EDC I, for example KAD 44, KAD 300, TAMD 73..75; also compatible with EDC II (e.g. D12C-A MP);
* and the proprietary Cummins KCM-II protocol (e.g. KTA19 and KTA38 engines).
A J1708 interface is used for connection of gauges, electronic displays, diagnostics equipment and other vehicle modules. This interface was very popular until 2005-2007, when it began to be quickly replaced by the J1939 protocol that is based, the same as NMEA 2000, on a faster CAN network.
