RAA100

You connect the RAA100 operating in the NMEA 2000 mode (i.e., without analog gauge) to a resistive sensor in the following way: connect the black wire to the sensor ground terminal connect the white wire to the sensor positive terminal Read More

The RAA100 works with resistive rudder angle senders (i.e., the resistance changes with rudder angle). In the U.S., the standard for resistive senders is 240 to 30 ohms where 240 ohms represents 60 degrees to port and 30 ohms represents 60 degrees to... Read More

The RAA100 default calibration mode is set to accept the American standard resistance values of 240 to 30 ohms (240 ohms representing 60 degrees to port and 30 ohms representing 60 degrees to starboard). This can be changed using Maretron's DSM150,... Read More

If the RAA100's operating mode is set to "NMEA 2000 & Analog Gauge", then it is important to configure the RAA100 with the gauge's resistances in order for the RAA100 to operate correctly. Please refer to the RAA100 User's Manual for a detailed... Read More

The RAA100 can operate in one of two ways: without an analog gauge, which is referred to as the "NMEA 2000" mode, and with an analog gauge, which is referred to as the "NMEA 2000 & Analog Gauge" mode The default mode of operation is without an... Read More

In order to keep the number of Maretron DSM150, DSM200, and DSM250 display menu items to a minimum (there is a possibility of more than 250 batteries, more than 250 engines, more than 250 rudders, etc.), the displays default to only a single rudder.... Read More

The RAA100 transmits the following message (or PGN): PGN 127245 - Rudder (Fields: 5 - Position) Read More

The RAA100 is a rudder angle adapter that converts an analog resistive sender into digital information, which is then broadcast over the NMEA 2000 where any NMEA 2000 compatible display can show the rudder angle. The RAA100 can be used with or... Read More

The RAA100 draws less than 100mA (LEN=2) of current from the NMEA 2000 network. Read More

Yes, you can use the RAA100 if the hard over points are not 60 degrees because the RAA100 can be custom calibrated for virtually any stop angle position. Hard over points can be calibrated over resistance values of 0 to 300 ohms. Read More
