More and more great ! After Wi-SP Digi Connect, l’iAIS de Digital Yacht, here's IMUX of Brookhouse.
The iMux is a multiplexer (*) NMEA 0183 able to transmit in WiFi data from the instruments connected to it (GPS, Navigation, AIS) to an iPad, iPhone, or any computer featured with a built-in WiFi receiver. All navigation applications receiving NMEA data 0183 through a serial port, USB or Bluetooth [...]

Receive AIS data wirelessly with iNavX
I explained, in a recent post, on receiving NMEA data from instruments on board without going through a Mac (or PC) aboard. It is now possible to do the same for receiving AIS data with an iPad or iPhone.
Digital Yacht has developed a new AIS receiver for use with mobile devices from Apple. iAIS, is its name, WiFi transmits the [...]
Connect GPSNavX/MacENC with an AIS
It is increasingly common to see an AIS receiver, Automatic Identification System (*), receiver above yacht's chart tables. Although only merchant vessels of over 300 tons and passenger ships are required to fit onboard an AIS Class A transponder, small commercial vessels are increasingly fitted with AIS Class B transponders least [...]
Controlling a Mac (or PC) from an iPad
By creating a VNC connection (Virtual Network Computing) it is possible to control a navigation app as GPSNavX or MacENC from an iPad. This latter becomes an active screen repeater, and offers the possibility, not only view the screen of the Mac (or PC), but also to control the software remotely with the touch screen. This is the solution adopted, this summer, by several participants in the Race [...]
MacENC, iNavX and TCP / IP
Despite the online Help iNavX and various tutorials on the subject, a lot of requests received and complexity of subject imposed on me a quick explanation.
The TCP/IP protocol
TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control Protocol / Internet protocol and pronounced « T-C-P-I-P ».
TCP/IP is a communication protocol, consists of a set of standardized rules of communication on the Internet and is based on a technique of providing a unique IP address to each computer on the network [...]
Connect your iPhone to your Mac via WiFi
In the tutorial video iNavX No. 2 – The advanced, I explain how to connect via WiFi on an iPhone iNavX MacENC on a Mac via the TCP / IP.
Previously, for Mac beginners, or those still not well versed in network settings for OS X, here is the method – very easy – to create onboard your wonderful ship, a private wireless network linking your Mac and your iPhone.
