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; this limitation is set by the network specification. Data from the
Devices can be displayed on chartplotters, digital navigation instruments, as well as
used by other digital equipment of the vessel.
The Thermometer performs measurements within the range from -55 to +125 °С
(-67..+257 °F), the sensor is placed outside the case on a flexible 95cm-long wire in a
sealed stainless steel sleeve and can be used to measure the temperature of gases and
liquids. The wire, if necessary, can be elongated up to 100 meters. The Thermometer
can be configured to display its data as "Air temperature", "Sea temperature",
"Temperature in the refrigerator", "Temperature in the engine room", etc.
The Barometer is intended for measuring atmospheric pressure within the range
from 300 to 1100 hPa (mbar). The sensor is located inside the device case. The
Barometer identifier can be configured so that data from several Barometers will be
simultaneously displayed on a chartplotter.
The Devices are designed for operating in an NMEA 2000 network and are
compatible with a wide range of equipment supporting this protocol. Raymarine
SeaTalk NG, Simrad SimNet, Furuno CAN networks are branded versions of NMEA
2000 and differ only in the type of connectors. In its devices, Garmin uses the NMEA
2000 Micro connector which is compatible with the DeviceNet Micro connector. Our
