Simarine SN01 SiCOM NMEA 2000 gateway module allows your PICO to transmit and receive information from certain

devices connected to an existing NMEA 2000 network. It allows control of switch banks, transmitting battery status, tank levels and some environmental information. Using the gateway, PICO can also display a range of engine and transmission parameters if they are connected to the NMEA network. 2 Safety Installation of Simarine electronics should be made by electrical specialists with proper safety equipment. When working with batteries you should wear protective clothing and eye protection. CAUTION: Batteries contain acid, a corrosive, colorless liquid that will burn your eyes, skin and clothing. Should the acid come in contact with eyes, skin or clothing, wash it immediately with soap under fresh water for at least 15 minutes, and seek medical support immediately. CAUTION: Do NOT connect anything to a damaged battery. It could heat up, catch fire or explode. CAUTION: Lead-acid Batteries can generate explosive gases during operation. Never smoke, allow flames or sparks near the battery. Make sure to keep sufficient ventilation around the battery. CAUTION: When working with a battery remove all personal metal items like watches, rings, necklaces and bracelets. Metal items in contact with the battery terminals might cause a short circuit with a very high electric current, which may heat up and melt nearby objects and cause severe burns. 3 Overview Picture 1 SN01 x – 1x NMEA 2000 port x – 2x SiCOM port

4 List of supported NMEA 2000 PGN

Below is a list of supported NMEA 2000 PGN’s. PICO allows transmitting or receiving of certain PGN’s according to the table below. PGN PGN Name receiving transmitting 59904 ISO Request Yes No 60928 ISO Address Claim Yes Yes 126996 Product Information No Yes 127257 Attitude No Yes 127502 Switch Bank Control No Yes 127505 Fluid Level No Yes 127506 DC Detailed Status No Yes 127508 Battery Status No Yes 130310 Environmental Parameters No Yes 130314 Actual Pressure No Yes 5 Installation 5.1 Mounting CAUTION: install the gateway module in a clean dry place, protected from accidental spilling of liquids. - You can fix the module with the supplied screws using four holes on both sides of the module. - Connect all cables (see section 5.3 Connecting). 5.2 Cables 5.2.1 SiCOM data cable For the SiCOM connection use the supplied cable. If not possible, use the following table to determinate the right cable type. Cable length Cable type < 5m No limitations >= 5m 2x2x0.25 mm2 Twisted pair (recommended) 5.2.2 NMEA 2000 backbone cable Cable length Cable type < 5m xyz >= 5m xyz 5.3 Connecting For proper function of Simarine SN01 SiCOM NMEA 2000 gateway module it is necessary to: 1. Connect SN01 to Simarine PICO via the SICOM port. 2. Connect to NMEA 2000 backbone via the marked NMEA 2000 port connector.
