Electrical Connections
Ship Power, Ship Video, Ethernet, and NMEA
Step 1.Prepare the ship power input cable (4104680)—Carefully measure, 
cut, and strip each wire as described in the Voyager III bulkhead box 
description in the ICD.
When this is done, terminate to terminal block J1.
Step 2.Remove the ship power cable gland seal from the bulkhead box and 
install onto the power cable. You can make a clean and singular cut in the 
gland insert to...

NMEA Interface
The Voyager III has the capability to listen to or take commands from radar, GPS, 
or other devices using the National Ma rine Electronics Association (NMEA) 0183 
protocol (version 2). The NMEA 0183 protoc ol is a combined electrical and data 
specification for communication between marine electronic devices. Additional 
information regarding the protocol can be found on the NMEA Web site:...

NMEA Messages
The Voyager III recognizes or responds to a subset of NMEA 0183 messages—
also called sentences. The standard NMEA 0183 messages required for 
Voyager III integration are as follows:
MFD as NMEA Talker
When a multi-function display (MFD) is used as the NMEA talker, it functions as a 
multiplexer, and incoming messages from the radar and other NMEA talker 
devices are passed through the MFD to t he Voyager III....

2.If you have an Ethernet switch or router on-board that supplies PoE (Power 
over Ethernet), then:
• Plug one cable between your switch/r outer and the E2 Ship Ethernet port 
on the bulkhead box.
• Plug the JCU Ethernet cable into an ope n PoE Ethernet port on the switch/
router and the other end into the  connector on the bottom of the JCU.
3.If you have an Ethernet switch or rout er on-board that does not supply PoE,...

Multiple JCU Installation
With the Voyager III system, more than one joystick control unit (JCU) can be 
used to control a camera. Depending on whether your network switch provides 
PoE, this configuration is  set up in the same way as option 2 or 3 for the single 
JCU. The injectors in the diagram below  are only needed when the router/switch 
does not supply power.
 Each JCU comes with a static IP address assigned. If you...

same IP. Details about how to do this are included in the “Webcam Interface” 
chapter of the Voyager III Operator’s Manual.
Digital Video Installation
A computer can be interconnected over a  shared Ethernet network to control the 
Voyager III camera and view digital video. It is connected in the same way as a 
JCU directly to a switch or router; but in  the case of the computer, no PoE injector 
is needed since it has its...

Electrical Connections
The cable gland seal supplied with the bulkhead box supports a maximum of six 
video cables routed out of the box. If multiple video outputs are required, an 
external video amplifier or distribution panel may be installed as required. 
The following illustration shows an exam ple with two Ethernet JCU connections, a 
computer with digital video on the same LAN, and two analog video displays.
