Instrument Compatibility
Core to the SailClever program is the sharing of NMEA data with your instrument system over a simple to set-up and reliable bluetooth link. SailClever Bluetooth can interface with any instrument package capable of outputting its data to the standard NMEA protocol. Some instruments can only send NMEA data out to SailClever. Others can also then receive back and display data send from SailClever. We call this Talkback. See the tabs below for specific information on your instrument system.
Nexus (formerly known as Silva) work particularly well with SailClever. They are very simple to connect, just plug in the bluetooth dongle using the supplied SailClever cable and hook it into the instruments power supply so it turns on and off with your instruments.

The black cable is the power cable. Red=positive, black=negative. We recommend that you attach it to the instrument power supply. This way it is automatically powered on and off with the instruments.

Talkback
We are currently working on the talkback feature for B&G H2000 and H3000 hydra systems. When this is complete you will be able to send proprietary B&G talkback sentences that will contain information such as Target Boat Speed and Angle, Start Countdown, distance off the line and more!
