INTRODUCTION TO NETWORK DATA
The Network DATA unit is a repeater of available networked
information supplied from other Network Instruments via the
system network. The information is presented on a large
back-lit Liquid Crystal Display (LCD).
It has no sensor interfaces as all data is passed to the unit via
the system network cables. The unit is capable of transmitting
NMEA 0183 v1.5 data via the network cables. The Network
DATA unit has its' own internal buzzer that sounds when an
alarm condition is met and received via the system network
from other Network units. The row of five keys are used for
selecting the displayed information when the appropriate unit
and its sensor is connected to the Network DATA unit.
