Nmea 0183 Setup - Simrad NSS evo3 Installation Manual

Client settings
Opens the Wireless Client Settings dialogue, which shows networks previously connected to,
regardless of whether they are currently visible or not. Allows deletion of a network from the
list, and toggling of Automatic connection setting.
Advanced
Tools are available within the software to assist in fault-finding and setting up the wireless
network.
Iperf
Iperf is a commonly used network performance tool. It is provided for testing wireless
network performance around the vessel so weak spots or problem areas can be identified.
The application must be installed on and run from a tablet device.
The NSS evo3 must be running Iperf server before initiating the test from the tablet. On
exiting the page, Iperf automatically stops running.
DHCP Probe
The wireless module contains a DHCP server that allocates IP addresses for all the MFDs, and
Echosounder in a network. If integrating with other devices, such as a 3G modem or satellite
phone, other devices in the network may also be acting as DHCP servers. To make it easy to
find all DHCP servers on a network, dhcp_probe may be run from the NSS evo3. Only one
DHCP device may be operational on the same network at a time. If a second device is found,
turn off its DHCP feature if possible. Refer to the device's own instructions for further
assistance.
Ú Note:
Iperf and DHCP Probe are tools provided for diagnostic purposes by users familiar
with network terminology and configuration. Navico is not the original developer of
these tools, and cannot provide support related to their use.
Simultaneous Client and Access Point operation
If it is desirable to have the MFD accessible to a tablet while also having internet access for
GoFree store and Insight Genesis, it is necessary to use two wireless units - one must be in
Client mode, the other in Access Point mode. This can be a combination of internal wireless
and an external WIFI-1, or two external WIF-1 units. Two external WIFI-1 units will offer the
advantage of providing both features to all MFDs on the network (where applicable).visible
or not.

NMEA 0183 setup

The NMEA 0183 port must be set to suit the speed of connected devices, and can be
configured to output only the sentences required by listening devices.
