OLAS CONNECT INTEGRATION
1. OLAS N2K NMEA 2000 MOB alert.
i. MOB pgn - the Man Overboard (PGN 127233) is issued into the NMEA 2000 network. Any
connected MOB device programmed to react to the MOB pgn will be triggered.
ii. AIS Safety Broadcast (PGN 129802) – this alert emulates the message that would be
received from an EPIRB or SART devices with AIS VHF support. The message is internal
only and will not be transmitted off the vessel. The message includes the GPS location of
the vessel at the time when the alert was triggered. The chart plotter can then set the MOB
mark.
2. MFD MOB alert issued– some navigation hardware devices will issue their own MOB alert onto the
NMEA 2000 network. The OLAS N2K will be monitoring for this alert and if it is detected the MOB
alerts from the OLAS N2K will be triggered.
NOTE: On some multi function displays a second MOB alert may not be issued via the OLAS N2K if the
plotter is tracking to an MOB waypoint.
• The OLAS CONNECT is an accessory for the OLAS N2K. It enables 3 additional MOB alert features.
These features are,
1. Manual MOB button connection
2. MOB alert light connection
3. MOB audio alert connection
