1. Introduction 

The AS00 is intended for use in a marine environment. It provides an easy way to link NMEA 2000 devices 
to an older NMEA 0183 listener device (e.g., chart plotter or voyage data recorder). It features an NMEA 
2000 to NMEA 0183 converter with a wide support of message types.   
 

The AS00 has an NMEA 2000 input and an NMEA 0183 output port. It supports the conversion of most 
NMEA 2000 PGNs and is compatible with a wide range of NMEA 0183 listener devices on the market. 
This includes devices using the RS422 (differential terminals) or RS232 (single terminal) communication 
protocol. 

Thanks to its small size it can be easily installed behind instrument panels, making this device the ideal 
solution  for  vessels  with  limited  available  space  for  marine  instruments,  or  on  boats  where  multiple
