0183 and 2000 are communication protocols - a "language" for transferring certain data between devices

they are not in any way compatible in the method used - either electrically, or the data "packets" . They can not be directly connected.


there are devices made/sold which will "translate" some data

However, in 0183 there are "no words to describe" the engine parameters anyway.
