Despite its compact size, Digital Yacht's NOMAD2 is a top-quality Class B transponder with integrated GPS and Wifi transmitter for sending data to a tablet or smartphone.
The NOMAD2 is a compact, portable device, easy to install and use. It comes complete with a high-performance GV30 VHF/AIS +GPS hybrid antenna and the necessary cables. Powered by a simple USB plug, it's particularly quick to set up: simply plug in the plug, place the antenna and start detecting surrounding boats !
The Nomad2 can be powered from any USB source (smartphone charger, USB cigarette-lighter charger, computer USB port, external battery, etc.) thanks to its very low power consumption (0.6A at 5V, or 0.25A at 12V).
It is supplied with a VHF/AIS + GPS antenna - to be fitted to a Glomex 1” base - and 4m of cable. Other VHF antennas (BNC connector) can be connected if already present on the boat.
To use the device to its full potential, it must be configured with your boat's MMSI number. This is done :
Important: like all AIS transponders, your NOMAD will only transmit your information if you have previously set up your boat's identification data (in particular the MMSI), otherwise it will simply act as a receiver. In application of the regulations, it is not possible to modify this number directly. However, it is possible to reset the device remotely if you change boat. Please contact us in this case.
The Nomad2 allows you to view the positions of surrounding vessels equipped with an AIS transmitter from any iOS or Android smartphone or tablet. You will need to install a navigation application capable of reading NMEA data, which will be sent to the tablet via wifi (e.g. Weather4D 2.0, iNavX, iSailor...). The tablet also retrieves Nomad2 GPS data via WiFi, if required.
It is also possible to use the NOMAD2 with a PC or Mac by connecting it via USB (in this case, the USB port provides both power and data).
