Article 95532, easyTRX2 with WIFI I bought the easyTRX2 almost a year ago and soon wrote a first review. Meanwhile, the device was sealed nearly 4,000 miles and gained some more experience. First of all, one can say that the device has always worked reliably. Now I can safely take the old AIS receiver off board. Not only the AIS Empafng works at least as well as with the old but also very reliable Euronav, but also the emission is impeccable. Several times, good reception has been confirmed on more than 20 miles, and control over the internet and Marinetraffic.com has confirmed that. Thus, there are only good things to say about the basics and important functions. I should mention, however, that I operate the device without integrated splitter with a dedicated mast top antenna. However, I would not buy this version, with WiFI, the extra charge is out of the money. I had expected a reliable and flexible NMEA WiFI transmitter, to which I could then try out various devices. And then I also tried all the possible software (apps) on iPad, iPhone and laptop and identified the easyTRX2 regarding the following restrictions: 1. As mentioned a year ago, the IP address is fixed and only one company is used as Access- Point possible. That restricts a lot, especially if you already have an AP on board that also connects to the Internet when needed. One must then disconnect the devices the info from easyTRX want to disconnect from the Internet and switch on to the easyTRX. Of course, then they have no connection with each other, it's all hanging on easyAIS. A client configuration would be very desirable for the easyAIS. 2. As with any AccesPoint, the easyAIS assigns DHCP addresses and remembers the assignment as usual. However, a device will only be operated with data after the first connection. If you interrupt the connection (iPad sleep) and rebuild it, the connection is open, but there are no more data. Remedy then only turns off the easyAIS now and then. (Which is not so good, because the GPS only needs some more set). 3. After upgrading to 2.2.9 firmware, the connection with iPad apps does not work anymore. However, with the PC I can still connect to WiFi and receive the NEMA data. For these reasons, I no longer use the WiFi function and do it again on the PC. The hangs on the common AP and gives all NMEA data via MaxSea to a TCP port. This works much more reliable. Good again, the easyTRX2 works as NMEA MUX. The NMEA data fed in from various instruments and plotters are combined perfectly with the AIS data and output flawlessly and losslessly both on the RS422 and on the USB serial port. The telegrams are simply passed on, which is not a problem because of the higher output speed (38kbit). A problem, however, is that all these data are also logged at breakneck speed on the optional SD card and is complete with a 2 GB card in a few days. The included evaluation program can not handle so many log data and hangs hopelessly on. So, both WiFi and logging pretty useless. Because of the negative points only 4 stars. Nevertheless, a good device, but saves you the not working properly extras such as WiFi.
