Qué cubre este vídeo

The owner of a $3,500 sailboat installs a Raymarine Axiom 7 chart plotter and a Standard Horizon GX 2400 GPS VHF radio to integrate AIS data into the boat's navigation system.8:34 To mount the chart plotter, he constructs a custom oak stand secured with LED light bar clamps, which provide shock absorption and allow for mounting on existing tubing.4:51 The Standard Horizon GX 2400 is selected for its built-in AIS receiver and NMEA 2000 connectivity, allowing AIS targets to display directly on the chart plotter and an iPad.8:30 The installation requires reconfiguring the NMEA 2000 backbone, which involves repurposing a SeaTalk-to-NMEA adapter and rerouting wind instrument cables under the navigation desk.19:54 The owner labels existing cables to manage the network and uses a Wi-Fi NMEA server to bridge data between the VHF and the chart plotter.17:19 The project concludes with the system successfully displaying AIS targets, though the owner notes that collision alarms require adjustment when operating within a marina.13:47
