Applications
Five deployments, one box
The first three scenarios run the same decoding core — the only difference is which bus you
tap. Switching protocol is one button press, and the gauge layout follows automatically, so
nobody on site has to configure a screen.
Vessel navigation monitoring
NMEA 2000
Tap the ship's N2K backbone and bring speed, heading, depth and engine RPM onto a single screen. GPS runs on its own serial port, so satellite data is unaffected by bus load.
- Speed over ground and through water, course over ground and heading (compass gauge, continuous through north)
- Depth alarm: the whole gauge turns red and pulses slowly below the configured limit
- Engine RPM, battery voltage, charge/discharge current, latitude and longitude
- Can be forwarded into Signal K for full instruments and charts on a phone
10 parameters measured · SOG 4.47 kn · COG 47.97° · Depth 9.8 m
1150 rpm · Battery 12.4 V
Heavy equipment & engine monitoring
J1939
The diagnostic language shared by diesel engines, construction machinery and generator sets. Coolant temperature, oil pressure, fuel and engine hours at a glance — fit for fleet management and preventive maintenance.
- Engine RPM, coolant and fuel temperature, boost pressure
- Low oil pressure or high coolant temperature switches to a warning color immediately
- Fuel level and live consumption, enough to estimate remaining runtime
- Cumulative engine hours as the basis for service scheduling
11 parameters measured · 975 rpm · Coolant 80 °C · Oil press. 260 kPa
10.85 L/h · Hours 1234.5 · Battery 24.8 V
Agricultural operation monitoring
J1939 / ISOBUS
A tractor's engine side is identical to heavy equipment; plus the extra parameters that only agricultural work uses. When the system detects a PTO signal it switches to the agricultural layout by itself — no manual selection.
- PTO shaft speed and oil temperature — the key figure during implement work, so it is promoted to the primary gauge
- Wheel speed and ground speed measured separately — the difference is slip
- Slip ratio: the share of tractive effort wasted digging into soil; warns above 15 %
- Engine hours and fuel consumption, aligned with operating-hour management
15 parameters measured · PTO 828 rpm · Slip 1.13 %
Wheel 8.86 / Ground 8.76 km/h · Hours 1234.5
Network egress node
VPN / obfuscation
At sea or at cross-border sites where network access is restricted, traffic from the vessel or the job site leaves through a tunnel that is hard to fingerprint. If the tunnel drops, blocking is enforced by routing topology — it never falls back to plaintext.
- AmneziaWG kernel-mode tunnel with tunable packet signature (Jc / S1 / S2 / H1–H4)
- Hysteria 2 with salamander obfuscation, suited to high-latency links
- One-touch network modes: direct / full VPN / hotspot / router
- Fail-closed guaranteed by routing topology, not by firewall rules alone
Kernel-mode tunnel 15 Mbps (userspace implementation: 8.4 Mbps)
Zero packet leakage measured when the tunnel drops
On-site operations terminal
HDMI / Web
Plug in a monitor and you have a dashboard — no laptop needed. When you need hands-on access, open a browser on your phone for a full terminal instead of hunting for a serial cable.
- Boots straight into a full-screen dashboard — no login, no mouse required to operate
- Switch which page the monitor shows from your phone's side menu
- The web terminal supports multiple independent tabs
- Plug in a USB NIC and it obtains an address and adjusts priority automatically
