Actisense USG-2 Isolated USB to Serial Gateway - NMEA 0183, RS422 & RS232

Advanced technology for safe, reliable and simple connection of your NMEA 0183, RS422 and RS232 devices to your PC s USB port. The USG ~2 converts a USB port into a bi ~directional serial port suitable for connecting to a marine standard NMEA 0183 data bus. It provides a far safer connection when compared to standard USB to serial converters. Electrical isolation is provided by the ISO ~DriveTM output and OPTO ~isolated input making installation simple and free from ground loops. The input uses the Actisense OPTO ~isolation circuitry to protect any connected equipment from the most common system faults. The input can receive very low level signals that are often too small to be received by a PC serial port. The high quality, shielded USB lead included with the USG ~2 makes connection to a PC simple while providing a high level of water protection when connected to the custom designed USB socket. The pluggable screwless connector makes installation quick and easy, and the specifically designed DIN rail mount option ensures a reliable secure bulkhead mount for the USG ~2. Multiple LEDs make diagnosing connection issues quick and easy. The blue power LED Illuminates solid blue when the USB driver has successfully loaded and the USG ~2 is powered, while a green receive LED and an orange transmit LED indicate whether data is present.
