THE LINKUP GATEWAY CONCEPT
The resistive-type Link Up gateway provides an easy method to convert vessel and engine information to
NMEA 2000®.
Compatible sensors are for example, b t not only, liq id levels, temperat re, or press re senders.
Easily installed, the LinkUp gateway replaces the original wiring, delivering power to both the LinkUp device
and sensor from the NMEA 2000® backbone while still being compliant with the NMEA 2000®
certification req irements.
The data are then available for being displayed on any OceanLink, Acq aLink, or more in general on any
glass cockpit NMEA 2000® display device.
Config ring LinkUp gateways is simple sing a mobile device and the companion LinkUp Config rator App
for Android or iOS.
Each device has a b ilt-in passive NFC antenna, so the parameters of the sensor are wirelessly config red to
type, instance and warning threshold on the mobile device which is then “tapped” against the LinkUp device
for instant data download.
DESIGN AND FUNCTION
The Link Up gateway has a simple yet effective design. The potted ho sing allows the nit to be installed in
engine rooms, making it compliant to the ISO 8846:1990 as req ested by the directive 2013-53(EC).
The standard NMEA 2000® M12 pl g allows for a pl g-and-play installation to the network backbone.
The sensor connection happens tho gh an AMP S perSeal pl g, which perfectly matches the veratron level
sensors, witho t the need of additional wiring.
