This Raymarine SeaTalkNG to NMEA converter is specially made to connect (only) VHF radios to the SeaTalkNG network via NMEA0183.
This converter only sends (TX) a few NMEA strings to the radio:
GGA - If L/L is present on STng, then GGA will Tx only populating data fields that are available, i.e. time/date etc.
RMC - If L/L is present then RMC will Tx only populating data fields that are available, i.e. time/date etc.
VTG - If SOG and/or COG valid in 129026 then VTG will Tx only populating data fields that are available, i.e. variation etc.
DSC data from the VHF radio is NOT sent back to the STNG network so that you can see it on the MFD chart plotter. You will then have to choose the Actisense NGW-1-STNG NMEA 0183 to STNG. This is a complete bridge between NMEA and STNG.
