0183 and 2000 are totally different. They cannot be interconnected without a 
device to translate back and forth. For one thing, 0183 is a one talker - many 
listener system and 2000 is a many talker - many listener system.

I'm not a NMEA 0183 expert but I though the different versions were backwards 
compatible.  So if the Zeus will take NMEA 0183 (3.0) then it should understand 
ver. 1.5.  I was under the impression that the 3.0 just had MORE reconized 
"sentences".

Has anyone on the list used the Actisense NGW-1 for a bridge to connect older 
0183 instruments to a 2000 network.  The plan is to use a B&G 390 system (NMEA 
0183 v. 1.5) to feed wind, speed, depth and heading data to B&G Zeus Touch on 
the 2000 bus.

The other alternative is to use a Tinley 0183 New2Old converter,.  Same 
question.  Has anyone done this. I'm told the Tinley will convert a ver. 1.5 to 
ver. 3.0 and the Zeus can also take a ver. 3.0 input.
