EMU-1-BAS
The EMU-1 has a PC based configuration tool that allows the settings inside the EMU-1 to be changed to best suit the engine it is working with, making it a flexible solution for many engine makes and models. An Actisense PC to NMEA 2000 Gateway (NGT-1) is required to configure the EMU-1.
It is recommended that an NGT-1 is available for every EMU-1 installation. The NGT-1 can be used to update the firmware, connect the Toolkit and display data on a PC for diagnostic and information purposes, using NMEA Reader.
Features:
- Enables analogue signals to be converted to NMEA 2000 messages
- Convert signals from up to two engines (that share a common ground) with a single EMU-1
- 6 gauge / parameter inputs
- 4 alarm inputs
- 2 additional auxiliary inputs
- 2 Tacho inputs
- Customised IP65 case
- Diagnostic LEDs
- Wide power compatibility of 9 to 35 Vdc
Benefits:
- No need to change an existing engine
- Easy installation
- Easy to configure to suit the connected engine
- Connect signals from fluid level gauges (that share a common ground with the engine) to NMEA 2000®
- Optional DIN rail mounting kit available
- Total engine hours are logged by the monitoring of engine Tach (RPM) input
