Yacht Devices YDRI-04N NMEA 2000 Run Indicator Micro Male

Yacht Devices YDRI-04N NMEA 2000 Run Indicator

The Yacht Devices YDRI-04N NMEA 2000 Run Indicator is an essential tool for monitoring and visualizing the electrical current and voltage in up to four independent DC circuits. This device ensures that manually switched loads such as navigation lights are functioning correctly by checking the actual current flow through the load.

Key Features

• Monitoring: Visualizes and monitors electrical current and voltage in up to four independent DC circuits.
• Data Display: Current and voltage data can be viewed on NMEA 2000 displays to verify the operation of connected equipment.
• Digital Switching Integration: Can be used to manage channels in an NMEA 2000 digital switching system to trigger alerts or control equipment based on the current and voltage data.
• Load Analysis: Reports the duration and frequency of load operation, useful for analyzing the performance of fresh water or bilge pumps.

Applications

The Run Indicator is well-suited for:

• Visualizing manually switched loads (e.g., navigation lights) on an MFD screen.
• Monitoring normally open and normally closed sensors (e.g., door sensors).
• Digitizing the performance of solar panels and wind generators (up to 200W per channel).
• Monitoring bilge and fresh water pumps to detect leaks and ensure proper operation.

Compatibility and Integration

The device is compatible with modern MFDs with CZone support and legacy chart plotters (NMEA 2000 PGN 127508). It allows configuration of load types such as Battery, Solar Panel, Wind Generator, etc., although this feature is not widely supported on all NMEA 2000 displays. It can manage loads with the Circuit Control YDCC-04 or compatible equipment from other manufacturers like Maretron and Oceanic Systems.

Easy Installation

• Easy installation with no external shunts required.
• Handles ±10A (15A peak) and up to 40V DC per channel.

Additional Features

• Supports overcurrent alerts and load management when paired with the Alarm Button.
• Allows inexpensive web access using Web Gauges of our Wi-Fi Gateway or Router.
• Can be programmed and firmware can be updated using the CAN Log Viewer software.

Product Benefits

• Ensures equipment is functioning correctly by monitoring current flow.
• Helps extend the life of equipment by alerting about issues such as low battery charge or pump problems.
• Provides comprehensive monitoring and control capabilities for modern marine electrical systems.

Package Includes

• Run Indicator YDRI-04N
• User Manual

Note: Despite the waterproof case, the wire terminals are open and seawater can cause a short circuit. Do not place the device where it can be flooded, get wet in the rain, or be sprayed with water.
