1 INTRODUCTION

Note
This document is intended for software engeneers. It is to be used
for writing codes in order to communicate with the ITI system.
With the rapid development of marine electronic devices, it has
become necessary to develop a standardised interface protocol for
exchanging data between devices regardless of the device
manufacturer. The NMEA 0183 standard protocol for interfacing
electronic marine devices has been implemented in the ITIsystem.
The most common way of connecting electronic equipment is to
use serial lines.
A more powerful way of integrating, is the Ethernet standard with
higher signalling capacity. The software required to communicate
over the Ethernet is included in the ITI system, however a standard
ITI does not include the hardware required.
A dedicated interface/display board containing the Ethernet
hardware must be installed.
→
The ITI system has four serial lines available for external
equipment connection.
