Dgital Yacht DIGIKVTUSB NMEA2000 Gateway/Converter
Model: ZDIGIKVTUSBThe iKonvert NMEA2000-0183 Gateway/Converter is an intelligent and flexible gateway for allowing software applications to read/write NMEA2000 data, either as RAW binary PGN data for ultimate analysis and control or converted to the older and more commonly supported NMEA0183 data.
Every popular Marine Navigation application that runs on PC/MAC/LINUX computers, can read NMEA0183 data and for all of those programs, iKonvert provides a simple, reliable and cost effective way to access the navigation data on an NMEA2000 network. Simply set the DIP switches inside iKonvert to the required data mode that you want to use and iKonvert will extract the selected data from the NMEA2000 network and provide them to your marine application in a format and at a baud rate they support.
For developers creating new applications or who know how to decode NMEA2000 PGNs, iKonvert can be easily set to its "RAW Mode" where data can be read/written to using a simple serial data format that we publish on our iKonvert Github site. No special libraries or proprietary code are required to integrate iKonvert, which has attracted the interest of a number of developers and it is already compatible with CanBoat and the popular Signal K Node Server.
Digital Yacht’s iKonvert Gateway is housed in a compact and easy to mount housing, with an integral USB cable and standard NMEA2000 Micro drop cable (male). Taking its power from the NMEA2000 network, and providing full galvanic isolation between the USB interface and NMEA2000 network, iKonvert operates at a baud rate of 230KB in "RAW mode" and 4.8KB, 38.4KB or 115KB in NMEA0183 conversion modes. All modes can be simply selected using the internal DIP switches with no special configuration software or firmware changes required.
iKonvert’s USB interface features an FTDI chip that has the most reliable and compatible USB drivers for all of the popular operating systems (Windows/Mac/LINUX/Android), whilst an ISO Version of iKonvert will soon be released for direct connection between NMEA2000 and NMEA0183 systems.
Where do I start! This man is a genius, I may have ordered a amateurs dream from this man, went all out on garmin products from gpsmap screens to the live scope lv34 and to juice them up I went with all powerhouse batteries and charging units! Well now on the boat I’m staring at this out dated minnkota and it just looked out of place so I went ahead and ordered up the KRAKEN! I can’t stop bragging on how much you have helped me, even face timing me on the water to fine tune my Livescope, there is no big box store that could even come close to offer this level of customer service! You will forever be my go to company! Thank you again!

Very fast shipping. Very knowledgeable guy to deal with. I inquired after hours and Chad responded quickly and chatted with me for way longer than necessary because I knew nothing about livescope. Who offers there cell phone number to call with any install questions??? Chad does. I got a friend request from him and accepted. Felt like I bought from someone who values my purchase as well as my friendship. We may never meet but I feel like I have gained a great friend. Thanks Chad for all your time spent explaining what I wanted and giving me choices. This won't be my last purchase..

It has been a pleasure dealing with Chad at Chaddy Boys! I had contacted him many times on the phone and has been very helpful! I felt like we had been old friends for a long period of time! Chad sent me many quotes and was very helpful on choosing the electronics setup I was seeking! I ordered my unit and received it on exact date I was quoted! I will definitely be buying from Chaddy Boys again!

This 16 volt battery and Run and Gun Charger is the only way to outfit your boat. Fish all day with no worries. Chad is very knowledgeable and helpful with the everything you need for a great day on the water. Now just waiting for a 36 volt to have the perfect setup. Thanks Chad.
Update* Well we just installed the second battery and run and gun charger. Took out 3 lead acid and about 120 lbs. Looking forward to the new system. Gonna be awesome. Thanks again Chad

We offer on the water Face-Time calls for product install, setup & graph tuning for side-Imaging, down-imaging & livescope! I took this side scan image 4 years ago.
