Introduction

! Please refer to the graphic for special considerations relating to your model !
S-Link gateway GW-1 is a NMEA2000® Certifi ed device for connecting NMEA2000® CAN bus equipment to the S-Link bus. Connect an S-Link spur cable from the gateway to S-Link backbone, and non S-Link equipment to the CAN Interface M12 male  connector or NMEA0183 GPS antenna to the NMEA0183 connector.
Power to the gateway is supplied from the S-Link so no external power is required.

CAN Interface

Connection
The GW-1 does not feed any power to the CAN-bus and connected devices has to be power feed from elsewhere. The GW-1 does not include any termination resistor on the M12 male connector output, so terminating resistors is required on the CAN-bus. CAN-L  & CAN-H are galvanic isolated. Use standard NMEA 2000® micro cable to connect to the CAN interface connector. Sleipner Motor AS do not provide NMEA 2000® micro cables.

LED indication

messages.
RX LED off:| Not receiving any messages.
RX LED flashing:| Flashing at max 100ms on and 100ms off when receiving messages

NMEA0183 Interface

Connection
The V OUT pin can feed power to a single GPS antenna with maximum 100mA, and it is internally fused. V OUT is S-link bus voltage. RX A(+) & TX B(-) are galvanic isolated

Baud rate
4800 baud and 38400 baud is supported, and are set automatically.
Supported NMEA0183 sentences
$GxRMC sentences from all positioning systems is supported.
LED indication
LED off: No valid NMEA0183 GPS signals.
LED flashing: Flashing 100ms on and 100 off for each valid GPS message received.
– Valid GPS antenna message at 38400 baud normal flashing on/off (100ms/100ms).
– Valid GPS antenna message at 4800 baud normal flashing on/off (100ms/900ms)
GNSS Antenna Prioritization
GNSS antennas priority sequence is 1. NMEA0183 with 100ms update rate 2. NMEA2000® 3. NMEA0183 with 1000ms update rate.
GW-1 will only forward one of the NMEA2000® GPS antenna signal to S-link if more than one antennas is present on the NMEA2000® bus.
If more than one GW-1 have GNSS signal(s) then GW-1’s will prioritize on antenna type from the list above and only one GW-1 will broadcast GNSS signals on the S-link bus.
All this requires GW-1 fi rmware V1.021 or newer.

Warranty statement

1. Sleipner Motor AS (The “Warrantor”) warrants that the equipment (parts, materials, and embedded software of products) manufactured by the Warrantor is free from defects in workmanship and materials for purpose for which the equipment is intended  and under normal use and maintenance service (the “Warranty”).

2. This Warranty is in effect for two years (Leisure Use) or one year (Commercial and other Non-leisure Use) from the date of delivery/purchase by the end user, with the following exceptions; (a) For demonstration vessels, or vessels kept on the water, the  dealer is considered as the end user from 6 months after their launch of the vessel; (b) The warranty period starts no later than 18 months after the fi rst launch of the vessel.
   Please note that the boat manufacturer and dealer must pay particular attention to correct maintenance and service both by the products manuals as well as general good practice for the location the boat is kept in the period the boat is in their care. In cases  where the 6 and 18 months grace periods for boat builders and dealers are passed, it is possible to obtain a full warranty upon inspection and approval of the warrantor or such representative.

3. Certain parts, classifi ed as wearable or service parts, are not covered by the warranty. A failure to follow the required maintenance and service work as described in the product manual render all warranty on parts or components directly or indirectly  affected by this void. Please also note that for some parts, time is also a factor separately from actual operational hours.

4. This Warranty is transferable and covers the equipment for the specified warranty period.

5. The warranty does not apply to defects or damages caused by faulty installation or hook-up, abuse or misuse of the equipment including exposure to excessive heat, salt or fresh water spray, or water immersion except for equipment specifically designed as  waterproof.

6. In case the equipment seems to be defective, the warranty holder (the “Claimant”) must do the following to make a claim: (a) Contact the dealer or service centre where the equipment was purchased and make the claim. Alternatively, the Claimant can  make the claim to a dealer or service centre found at www.sleipnergroup.com. The Claimant must present a detailed written statement of the nature and circumstances of the defect, to the best of the Claimant’s knowledge, including product identifi cation  and serial nbr., the date and place of purchase and the name and address of the installer. Proof of purchase date should be included with the claim, to verify that the warranty period has not expired;
   (b) Make the equipment available for troubleshooting and repair, with direct and workable access, including dismantling of furnishings or similar, if any, either at the premises of the Warrantor or an authorised service representative approved by the  Warrantor. Equipment can only be returned to the Warrantor or an authorised service representative for repair following a pre-approval by the Warrantor’s Help Desk and if so, with the
   Return Authorisation Number visible postage/shipping prepaid and at the expense of the Claimant.

7. Examination and handling of the warranty claim:
   (a) If upon the Warrantor’s or authorised service Representative’s examination, the defect is determined to result from defective material or workmanship in the warranty period, the equipment will be repaired or replaced at the Warrantor’s option without  charge, and returned to the Purchaser at the Warrantor’s expense. If, on the other hand, the claim is determined to result from circumstances such as described in section 4 above or a result of wear and tear exceeding that for which the equipment is  intended (e.g. commercial use of equipment intended for leisure use), the costs for the troubleshooting and repair shall be borne by the Claimant;
   (b) No refund of the purchase price will be granted to the Claimant, unless the Warrantor is unable to remedy the defect after having a reasonable number of opportunities to do so. In the event that attempts to remedy the defect have failed, the Claimant  may claim a refund of the purchase price, provided that the Claimant submits a statement in writing from a professional boating equipment supplier that the installation instructions of the Installation and Operation Manual have been complied with and  that the defect remains.

8. Warranty service shall be performed only by the Warrantor, or an authorised service representative, and any attempt to remedy the defect by anyone else shall render this warranty void.

9. No other warranty is given beyond those described above, implied or otherwise, including any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose other than the purpose for which the equipment is intended, and any other obligations on  the part of the Warrantor or its employees and representatives.
   10. There shall be no responsibility or liability whatsoever on the part of the Warrantor or its employees and representatives based on this Warranty for injury to any person or persons, or damage to property, loss of income or profit, or any other incidental, consequential or resulting damage or cost claimed to have been incurred through the use or sale of the equipment, including any possible failure or malfunction of the equipment or damages arising from collision with other vessels or objects.
