Also wind data received via BLE or through the Wi‐Fi‐Repeater is converted into
NMEA 2000 protocol and transferred to an NMEA 2000 network.
When connected to the NMEA 2000 backbone, the NCP receives its power from it. A
correct powered and terminated NMEA 2000 network is required before using this
interface.
When the NCP is used on a NMEA 2000 network, the NCP backbone cable with end
free wires should be connected through the unit (follow the instructions in section
6.2).
To connect the NCP to the NMEA 2000 network, you should connect the drop cable
male connector to the female connector of the NMEA 2000 backbone (note: the key
in the male connector and the keyway on the female connector). Make sure the
cable is connected securely and that
the collar on the cable connector is tightened
firmly.

PGNs
Wind data is sent using the PGN 130306.
