THE LINKUP GATEWAY CONCEPT
The voltage-type LinkUp gateway provides an easy method to convert vessel and engine information to
NMEA 2000®.
Compatible sensors are for example, but not only, liquid levels, trim tabs, rudder angle, temperature, or
pressure senders.
Easily installed, the LinkUp gateway replaces the original wiring, delivering power to both the LinkUp device
and the sensor from the NMEA 2000® backbone while still being compliant with the NMEA 2000®
certification requirements.
The data are then available for being displayed on any VMH, OceanLink, AcquaLink, or more in general on
any glass cockpit NMEA 2000® display device.
Configuring LinkUp gateways is simple using a mobile device and the companion Link Up Configurator App
for Android or iOS.
Each device has a built-in passive NFC antenna. Therefore, the parameters of the sensor (type, instance and
warning threshold ) can be configured on the mobile phone which is then "tapped" against the LinkUp
device for instant data download.
DESIGN AND FUNCTION
The LinkUp gateway has a simple yet effective design. The potted housing and contactless programming
interface allow the unit to be installed in engine rooms, making it compliant to the ISO 8846:1990 as
requested by the directive 2013-53(EC).
The standard NMEA 2000® M12 plug allows for a plug-and-play installation to the network backbone.
The gateway provides an AMP SuperSeal plug to easily make a waterproof connection to the sensor. If the
sensor doesn't have the required counterpart connector, the wires are easy accessible to attach any type of
interface.
