on the Ethernet connector (green, shown on Figure 1 in Section I) will start flashing,
indicating that the Gateway is powered and functioning (see Section VI for details).
2. Connecting to Ethernet network
The Device supports direct connection to PC or can work over an Ethernet network
(10, 100 or 1000 Mb/s), Garmin Marine Network, Raymarine SeaTalk HS and RayNet,
Furuno NavNet, or NMEA OneNet.
To connect directly with a PC, a regular RJ45 Male-Male Cat 5e/6 cable is required.
The cable is not supplied with the Device, but can be purchased in any computer store.
The cable length can be up to 100 meters, and it must have at least 4 wires connected
(usually all 8 wires are connected in the cable).
The same cable is used to connect with a standard Ethernet hub or router,
or to a Garmin Marine Network. However, the vessel’s Ethernet network (usually used
to connect the chart plotter with radar or fishfinder) may have proprietary connectors.
All known manufacturers supply adaptor cables with a standard RJ45 connector,
for example:
• for Raymarine RayNet, use cables with part numbers A62360, A80151, A80159;
• for Raymarine SeaTalk HS use cables with part numbers E55049, E55050,
E55051.
After connection to the Ethernet network (or to a PC), the network LED (yellow)
of the Device will start flashing. This indicates network activity (including service
packets), and flashes every few seconds even if Gateway is not used by the PC
software. A constant signal of the LED means that the cable is not connected, damaged
or all network equipment is turned off. No signal of yellow LED means that
NMEA 2000 network is turned off (the Device is powered from NMEA 2000)
or indicates hardware problem (the Gateway must be replaced).
