Fuel consumption meters with NMEA2000 interface on boats and yachts

The installation of fuel consumption meters on ships or yachts is an objective necessity to determine the cruising range, which strongly depends on the wave situation and cannot be accurately calculated from the data of the fuel level sensor in the tank, as well as to improve engine efficiencty based on the instantaneous fuel consumption of the engine. So we have to display instant fuel consumption data onboard, and it doesn’t mean extra display installation is required.

Decoding the CAN bus data with can2sky.com service

Many GPS tracking installations are bonded with CAN bus data analysys. On-board electronic modules contain a lot of data about the operation of the machine – sensor values, loading or unloading events, diagnostic trouble codes and much more. Data can be transmitted either using standard exchange protocols (FMS protocol / SAE 1939), typical for trucks and commercial vehicles, and non-standard (cars), or according to the undocumented parts of standard protocols.
