For a long time I wish to setup integrated bridge system in my office to train young technicians, young crew, inexperienced service engineer on real equipment before they enrole into the ship job. My wish came true. Any service company, ship owner who wish to rent our place with all facilities in place are welcome to contact me. We can train the trainer to teach your guy to train. Show case with vmft, BME radar, ecdis, ecdis E, total watch, Sperry Mk1 gyro, Saab R4 AIS, Marinelite Class A VHF, Class A GNSS, MX420 GPS, Class A AIS, Echo Sounder with simulator, wind sensor, sperry Naviknot 600SE with self built simulator, all interface via NMEA buffer.

Marinelite echo sounder (fish finder) 6' display interface to Sperry marine vmft radar
Please see the video link from youtube how we setup the marinelite wind sensor, marinelite echo sounder and sperry marine vmft display to interface all 3 equipments.
Connecting Marinelite wind sensor with relative and true wind speed and direction
Here you will see the marinelite wind instrument connected with gyro Sperry marine mk1 and gps SOG
at the same time output the wind speed and direction to the sperry marine vmft radar.
Please see the video link from youtube below.
Connect Satelite compass to existing single gyro system
Many times when vessel has only one master gyro compass, it makes autopilot steering difficult when master gyro fail at sea. Using magnetic compass to steer with autopilot is almost impossible.
Satelite compass kick in for this case.
Please see the interface drawing below :
How to setup obsolete order printer with existing Gyro compass ?
Many times when vessel are very old. Let say approximately 20-30years old.
The equipment on board are very old as well.
Vessel may sell for scrap in 1-2 years time.
To reduce cost on order printer since it is mandatory to install order printer for any voyage.
But because either order printer is obsolete or naviprint could not be output to the order printer.
There is a solution. As long as the gyro compass could output NMEA HDT sentence, the solution is relatively low cost.
Install a UDR(Universal Digital Repeater), set the output to transmit naviprint sentence.
Connect a Epson dot matrix LQ310, then it will do the job.
Please see attached drawing.
