USB to Serial Gateway
Connect your boat’s data network
to your PC with the safety of full
electrical isolation.
The Actisense USG-1 is the safest way to connect a
boat’s data network to an on-board PC. It converts a
USB port into a bi-directional serial port suitable for
connecting to a marine standard NMEA 0183 data bus.
The ISO-Drive output and Opto input provide full
isolation, making installation simple and free from
ground loops.
The Opto input uses the Actisense isolation circuitry
to protect any connected equipment from the most
common system faults. The isolator can receive very
low level differential signals that are often too small to
be received by a PC serial port.
The USG-1 overcomes all the problems of using a
low-cost USB to RS232 cable from a computer store.
It eliminates the risk of damage to the PC as it provides
complete isolation.
• Create a safe serial port connection to an
NMEA 0183 system that may be on a different power
circuit from the PC
• Connect two PCs together that are on different
power circuits
• Provide a fully compliant NMEA 0183 port from a
USB port
• Receive low level differential signals that are too
small to be received by a PC serial port
• Free up PC serial/COM port for other uses
