I have 2 TZT's that receive AIS data via a IF-NMEA2K2 feeding the NMEA2000 backbone. I also have PC's in the network using TZ Professional which receive all data except AIS. In checking the TZT manual I notice that TZT's do not output AIS data they receive. The options I think I may have are:
-Connect the Brown, Grey and Drain wire to an RS232 interphase and the PC's
-Use an additional IF-NMEA2K2 in the NMEA2000 network to convert the data to NMEA0183/RS232 so it can be used by the PC's?
Is there another way to send the data to the PC's? I recall seeing something about the radar sending the data but don't know if it is correct or how to implement if it can.
Thank you,
Rolando
