Introduction
Welcome
Thank you for purchasing a Chetco Digital Instruments SeaSmart.Net product.
SeaSmart.Net Gateway adapters bridge Serial communications between dissimilar networks such as
Ethernet,WiFi, NMEA 0183, and NMEA 2000. SeaSmart.Net gateways contain both hardware interfaces
and protocol translators to provide bi-directional communications between networks.
SeaSmart.Net adapters are available for -
NMEA 0183 to Ethernet 10/100 with Embedded Web Server
NMEA 0183 to WiFi 802.11 b/g with Embedded Web Server
NMEA 2000 to Ethernet 10/100 with Embedded Web Server
NMEA 2000 to WiFi 802.11 b/g with Embedded Web Sever
NMEA 2000 to USB/RS232 with external Web Server
Models with Embedded Web Servers allow direct viewing of translated data via standard Web Browser
devices as well as bridging between target TCP/UDP networks.
Web Browser enabled device PC based App using TCP/UDP connections

Translates NMEA 2000 data to serial data and then
to 802.11 b/g WiFi.
SeaSmart.Net Protocol translator passes data to
embedded Web Server which is accessed over WiFI
Ad Hoc and Infrastructure networks using Web
Browser compatible devices
Optional pass-through allows direct access to NMEA
data for display on vDash PC Instrumentation S/W
over WiFi
SeaSmart.Net Ethernet adapter
Translates NMEA 2000 data to serial data and then
to 10/100 Ethernet (RJ45).

The protocol translation is based on embedded microprocessor and can thus be easily updated in the field
via USB connection to any PC. The USB port provides power from the PC so no external power is required
when connected to a PC for programming.
The embedded Web Server contains a simple file system that allows Web content to be updated over the
connected network. The Web Server supports Dynamic HTML, JAVA Script, CGI, and AJAX protocols
and contains CGI scripts for bridging serial communications directly to hosted Web Pages.
SeaSmart.Net adapters are typically deployed where it is desired to bridge between NMEA 0183/NMEA
2000 networks and Ethernet/WiFi networks. Here, NMEA data is translated and passed on to both the
target network and embedded Web Server. Listeners on the Ethernet/WiFi networks can use both TCP and
UDP protocols to access the data. SeaSmart.Net adapters are configured to pass only selected data through
the gateway to reduce unnecessary traffic. Typically this configuration is only done on installation but can be
modified at anytime via connection to PC USB port.
SeaSmart.Net adapters can provide either a wired Ethernet or wireless WiFi connection to a local router
(Infrastructure Network). The router then interfaces to other devices on the network via additional wired or
wireless interfaces. It is possible and often practical, to use the WiFi features of a local router to service
other wireless clients.
SeaSmart.Net adapters with WiFi can also provide direct (point to point) connections with other Wireless
devices by using a Ad Hoc network which does not require a local router.

Connections
Installation of SeaSmart.Net adapters typically requires connecting the appropriate interface cables to each
network. Power is supplied from the NMEA 2000 network and is electrically isolated. When powering
from the NMEA 2000 network, Care must be taken to ensure not to exceed maximum current load of all
devices. Max load for SeaMart.Net adapters is 6 LEN
Two connectors on the input side provide the interface to the source networks (USB/Serial and/or NMEA
2000) The USB/Serial connector is a dual interface with only one active at a time (USB or RS232). The
appropriate USB or Serial interface cable must be used. The NMEA 2000 connector requires a supplied
Micro C adapter cable to connect to a NMEA 2000 bus “T” connector. SeaSmart.Net uses Opto-isolators
and thus is power and ground isolated from the NMEA 2000 network. SeaSmart.Net adapters only draw 1-6
LEN when powered via external source. When using SeaSmart.Net as a NMEA 2000 Gateway, the
USB/Serial interface is used off-line for configuration and firmware updates or as a second data port
accessible via the network.
For Ethernet devices the default configuration is to allow an External DHCP server to assign a network
address to the device. Access to the NMEA data is then done with TCP connection to the address or via
Web Browser to the same IP Address using Port 80. The Ethernet interface uses a supplied custom RJ45
cable with water-resist locking connector. The opposite RJ45 plug can be directly attached to any network
device or router. The Ethernet cable is a “straight-through” type.
