Ian Lockyer, Icom UK\u2019s marketing manager said, \u201cThe MarineCommander is a robust, waterproof navigational system and integrates various navigation options with a large, durable, multifunctional display (MFD) and powerful main black box processor unit.\u201d<\/p>\n
The MarineCommander brings together all essential safety and navigational electronics in one multifunctional display unit.<\/p>\n
Central to the system and the main user interface is the waterproof 12.1-inch MXD-5000 multifunctional display (MFD). It allows water submersion up to one-metre for 30 minutes and the anti-reflective coating is optimised for day and night operation, offering vivid detail even under direct sunlight.<\/p>\n
Each display splits into four customisable panes and the MFD has ports for both USB drives and SD cards, allowing the MarineCommander to display chart information (C-MAP), and backup important data.<\/p>\n
The MarineCommander increases safety at sea and streamlines navigational operations – used in conjunction with the MXR-5000R\/T Marine Radar, Automatic Identification System (AIS) target and radar images improve collision avoidance.<\/p>\n
When connected to an MXF-5000 Fish Finder, the MarineCommander is capable of a dual frequency sounder function. Using the 50kHz\/200kHz dual frequency mode, the system determines a common area of fish over a large volume of water while identifying waypoint information with speed, depth and temperature data.<\/p>\n
It also exchanges real-time boat traffic information with other AIS-equipped vessels using Icom’s MA-500TR transponder or MXA-5000 AIS receiver.<\/p>\n
It can also be coupled to a compatible Icom VHF marine transceiver, and can connect to engine\/environment\/positioning sensors with an NMEA 2000 interface.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
