Designed for both power and sailing vessels, the server software runs on a PC which may be hidden below. Monitors with touch screens may be used anywhere on board, the system is connected by WIFI. One package can handle one set of transducers or network input but the Instruments may be installed on any number of computers which share the data. Input is received from a variety of sources including: NMEA 2000 compatible engines and generators. Tank and Battery monitors GPS sensor or Plotter Depth, Wind, Speed and Temperatures transducers. This data can be NMEA2000 or the older NMEA 0183 protocol. In most cases, there is no need to buy new instrument transducers. The system can share GPS data with charting packages such as Nobeltec. One or two engine Monitoring The main screen for motoring a single or twin engines shows Tachometer with fuel consumption data Speedometer with trip odometer, maximum and average speeds Smaller gauges for temperatures and pressures Warning panels for important engine data Compass display with course to steer Depth Sounder display with graph Secondary screens show tank levels and battery condition. Sailing Monitoring Screen Tank Monitoring Sailing Avia Sailing's amazing display. Without pushing a single button all this information is instantly available. The sailing screen introduces a world first, the Real Time Polar Plot, a racing sailors dream. Based on polar data input (once) by the user, the system calculates a polar plot of the estimated best speed in the current wind condition. This is recalculated and redisplayed as the wind changes. The boats actual speed is shown on the plot giving and immediate comparison with target speeds. For non-racers, a conventional screen with Wind, Speed, Depth and Compass is also available. Apparent Wind Speed and Direction True Wind Speed and Direction (the little orange bar to the right of the pointer) VMG (Velocity Made Good) upwind or downwind Boat Speed from the speedometer OR GPS (your choice) Depth in Feet or Meters, with graph and shallow water alarm Course over ground in Degrees (Magnetic) with compass display Speed over Ground Course to Steer (when GPS set to waypoint) Waypoint ID XTE (Cross track error) RESIZABLE to fit any screen layout. A set of standard instruments capable of displaying this much information would have 3 or 4 separate displays, and many wires and connections and cost OVER $1500!! This package will retails for $599 including the "Dongle" required to connect a PC to the boat's NMEA 2000 network.
