Page 4: Introduction
Introduction This Manual contains information on how to install, configure and operate YDTC-13 digital thermometers (hereinafter Thermometer) and YDBC-05 digital barometers (hereinafter Barometer) intended for using on pleasure crafts. The Thermometer and Barometer (hereinafter, where the differences are not critical, Devices) have one digital sensor. Up to 50 devices may be used on a vessel simultaneously;... - Page 5 Devices are supplied with different types of connectors, making it possible to connect them to networks of different manufacturers without any adapters. The Device model is shown on the case. Type of the connector, compatibility Device model (see Appendix B) YDBC-05R, YDTC-13R Raymarine SeaTalk NG Female YDBC-05RT,...

Page 6: Warranty And Technical Support
Warranty and Technical Support The Device warranty is valid for two years from the date of purchase. If a Device was purchased in a retail store, when applying under a warranty case, the sale receipt can be requested. The Device warranty is terminated in case of violating the instructions of this Manual, case integrity breach, repair or modification of the Device without manufacturer’s written permission. -

Page 9: Device Connection And Testing
Device Connection and Testing The Device requires no maintenance; calibration of the digital sensors has been performed by the manufacturer. When deciding where to install the Device, choose a dry mounting location. Avoid places where the Device can be flooded with water, this can damage it. The Thermometer sensor has a waterproof case made of stainless steel and is not intended for permanent location in hostile environments such as sea water. - Page 10 After connecting the Device, close the lock on the connection to ensure its water resistance and reliability. Figure 1. SeaTalk NG bus with the YDBC-05RT, YDTC-13R and YDBC-05R (left to right) After turning on the bus power supply, the Device LED will produce short signals every 2 seconds.
- Page 11 PGN 0x1F11A (127258) with data on magnetic variation, the Device will produce six LED signals with a period of 0.5 seconds when such message is received for the first time after power is on. This usually happens within 15 seconds after the Device is turned on.

Raymarine c125 MFD devices list with Barometer and Thermometer The Thermometer can be reprogrammed by the user to display data in other indicators, such as «Sea temperature», «Temperature in the engine room», «Temperature in the refrigerator» (see «Programming the Device»). The Thermometer sensor cable can be elongated up to 100 m by the user himself —...

To do this, turn the Device off, cut the cable in the middle (see Appendix B) and extend it with a three- conductor wire and properly insulate the joints.

Page 14: Programming The Device
The core section of the connection cable must not be less than 0.2 sq. mm, with the diameter of 0.5 mm. Cables of UTP 3, UTP 5, UTP 5e categories with the AWG-24 and AWG-22 labelling used for telephone lines and computer networks are suitable for the role of a connection cable. - Page 15 Figure 1. Setting the chart datum and magnetic variation on Raymarine c125 To select a programming method, refer to the documentation of your chartplotter. In some cases you may need to update the plotter firmware. Theoretically, programming the Device can be performed using a plotter of any manufacturer. —...
- Page 16 STEP 1. Putting the Device into standby mode The Device enters standby mode if, when it is switched on, the chart datum is set on the plotter as follows: • to “Australian Geodetic 1966” for the Thermometer • to “European 1950 (Mean, European Datum)” for the Barometer Or if the magnetic variation on the plotter is set to a user-defined value with the following parameter: •...
- Page 17 STEP 2. Putting the Device into programming mode If the Device was put into standby mode by setting the chart datum (magnetic variation), all the subsequent steps should be carried out with the setting of chart datum (magnetic variation). In the standby mode, without turning the Device power off, change the chart datum setting on the plotter •...

- Page 19 (130314) and PGN 0x1FD08 (130312) depends on the plotter manufacturer. Data on the refrigerator temperature with instance 3 can be displayed as “Temperature in refrigerator № 3”. In practice, we have not seen plotters with such ability. Please note that all the messages transmitted by the Device are informational. They can be used by other devices during their operation (to show them on a display or to trigger an alarm when exceeding a predetermined level), but are not used as automated control data for autotuning.

- Page 22 Please note that changing the Device settings occurs only when changing the plotter configuration. To increase the value of the message setting by 3, first change the setting to the first value from Table 3, then to the second, and then back to the first one. After each change, wait for the Device confirming signal (lighting of LEDs for 3 seconds).
