- kamala - August 7, 2011
I'm in the process of building a system around MacENC. I have a Catalina 22 and will be starting from the ground up. I wanted to your input before making my purchases.
1. Macbook Air- running Lion loaded with the latest version of MacENC
2. Connected by USB to the ShipModul Miniplex 2-USB
3. NMEA 0183 Inputs into the ShipModul Miniplex- Garmin 17x HVS GPS, a B744V transducer (speed/depth/temp), Simrad Windvane.
4. NMEA 0183 Outputs from the ShipModul Miniplex- Simrad R10 VHF with DSC and a Simrad IS20 Combi display mounted in the cockpit using a SimNet AT10 Converter.
Couple of questions.
What do you think of the above set-up?
Can you have 3 simultaneous outputs from the multiplexer ie 2 NMEA and 1 USB?
I've posted some more info on the build and needless to say I was pretty excited when I came across this site.

No problems with your configuration.
A NMEA output can communicate with up to 4 NMEA Inputs (Listeners) ..
