5 Functionalities
The NCP can receive information via NMEA 0183, BLE or WIFI. The NCP will use the wind
data from the interface that first comes to the NCP and select it as receiver. The wind data
of that interface is converted or repeated to all outputs available.
POWER 5.1
The NCP can be powered from several sources:

NMEA 2000 backbone power: when connected, the NCP is powered from it. This
option is compatible with 12VDC supplies typically using 126mA (3 LEN) at 12
VDC. This power source is isolated from the rest of the circuit.

USB power: Available when other sources are not available. When other source
is available the USB power drain is minimal.

Dedicated VCC input: A dedicated 12VDC input can be used to power the NCP.
USB 5.2
USB can be used to power the unit (optional) and to upgrade the Firmware.
In order to use it you need a USB cable with end free wires. Take a look at section 6.1
for further information regarding the connection of the USB.
NMEA 2000® interface 5.3
The NMEA Connect Plus is equipped with an NMEA 2000 interface to connect to an
NMEA 2000 backbone.
NCP will translate NMEA 0183 wind sentences into NMEA 2000 PGN's (messages).
This feature enables a seamless integration between NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000
navigation devices.
