Does anyone have a commercial solution for getting an alram out of the
raymaine chartplotters that can actually be heard. I know they sell
the seatlk to nema converter for this purpose, but I am told this will
not sound an alrm for anchor dragging. I bought the shipmodul
multiplxer but unfortunately this does not have switched outputs. Is
there a nema alarm sentence from the raymarine char plotter?

Uh, which model chartplotter? And where did you read it doesn't trigger on
the anchor alarm?

I have the raychart RL80CRC. I was told if you use the Raymarine
Seatalk to NEMA box it will not trigger a anchor alarm.

There is an option available for the Brookhouse NMEA multiplexer, that
allows testing of any NMEA data value and user-control of 4 signals that
can switch a lights (leds), buzzers or relays.
The following is an excerpt from the documentation:

· Testing of NMEA parameter values and setting or clearing of
externally available control signals. The control signals can be used for
warning lights, alarm buzzers or to drive relays to switch lights or
equipment on/off. There are 4 signals available. NMEA parameter conditions
that can be tested a
(Greater than), (Smaller than) and = (Equal). Signals can be turned on or
off if the condition is "true".

How do I access the 4 signals, I thought it only had RS-232 for the

No, Brookhouse mux outputs are RS232, RS422, 2nd RS422 @4800
(speedconversion of AIS-C and AIS models), USB (optional). If the control
signal option is ordered, a separate 10" multi-core cable is brought out the
mux enclosure with a led already connected to output 1 for practicing the *C
directive. It is intended for the more technically oriented.

Unfortunately I ordered mine from Captn Jack's, I didn't know about

That's clearly not a Brookhouse mux.
I've given you the links for Brookhouse.
The standard Brookhouse mux is $149.00
The control signal option is $25.00
If you need BT, a simple 4800bps plug-in module is available for $45.00. For
BT with many configurable options and baudrates, use an AIRCABLE module for
$69.00 (order direct from aircable).
