Connection checklist

What you need

Tablet

A tablet needs a compatible USB data and power adapter that exposes the Nightwave as a supported video device. Confirm the exact tablet, operating-system, and charging arrangement before installation.

Dedicated BoatKit device

A dedicated device can keep the USB camera connected and available to local or remote BoatKit views continuously.

Hardware and network

  • A compatible SIONYX Nightwave exposing supported USB video
  • A BoatKit tablet or device with a compatible USB connection or adapter
  • Adequate vessel connectivity and bandwidth for remote viewing

Account or license

No SIONYX cloud account is used for the USB path. Remote viewing requires a registered BoatKit Cloud vessel.

A compatible SIONYX Nightwave appears to BoatKit as a USB video source. It uses the same camera identity, profiles, naming, diagnostics, and saved-view placement as other supported USB cameras, so its low-light image can sit beside the chart, depth, or radar without a separate Nightwave-specific control system.

A tablet needs a data-and-power arrangement that exposes the camera to the operating system while keeping the tablet usable. A dedicated BoatKit device can leave the camera connected and available around the vessel. When the vessel has suitable connectivity and bandwidth, the same supported stream can be opened remotely through BoatKit Cloud.

Compatibility depends on the Nightwave model, its USB video behavior, the BoatKit host, and the adapters between them. BoatKit is not affiliated with or endorsed by SIONYX.
