NavStation

The cost effective and space saving solution to navigation, radar operation and fish finding

The basis of the NavStation range are three rugged, sophisticated and easy to use chartplotters. They are watherproof, the electronics is built into a solid diecast aluminium casings and the operation is simple and logical thanks to a smart prime pad and dedicated buttons on the operating panel. 

One screen – three pictures
The CX series might be connected to all of Simrads radar scanners bye a simple plug and play cable. Radar software is included. If you also like to use your CX plotter as a fishfinder, this is done by connecting a transducer and installing additional software. The fishfinder option might be delivered preinstalled or you can upgrade your CX equipment with a transducer and software in the future. 

The difference

The main difference between CX34, CX44 and CX54 is the size of the 640 x 480 pixels screens. The screens are based on advanced TFT technology, giving superior picture also in direct sunlight. 

CX 34 with a 7" screen is compact and easy to install whether you choose bracket mounting or flush mounting.

CX 44 with a 10" screen  gives you better advantage of the split screen options, found on all CX  plotters.

CX 54 with a 15" screen is our top of the line multifunction NavStation suitable for large sail- and motoryachts with limited dashboard space. 

The CX range is delivered with a small and solid DGPS “mushroom antenna”. Optional antenna solutions are also available. The system is updated once every second and the accuracy is approximately eight meters. The pre installed software takes full advantage of the precise and detailed vector charts from C-Map. Simply slot the card covering several usual papercharts into the splashproof drawer in front of your CX NavStation. You have the possibility to zoom or to split the screen to have one picture cover a large area and one detailed chart. The chart can be overlaid by a radar picture, or you can split the screen to do charting, radar operation and fishfinding simultaneously. 

Free "how to" DVD

Simrad has produced a ‘how-to’ DVD based on its CX NavStation range. The free DVD is designed to help NavStation users make the most of its more sophisticated functionality, but also includes tips on mastering basic operation. 

NavStation packs a lot of power and the DVD focuses on the complex functions of the chartplotter, DX Radar and echosounder module that once fully appreciated can transform the navigation experience.

The DVD delves into the finer points of echosounder operation. It also covers the unique functionality built into the NavStation radar such as multiVision® dual radar and adaptive boat speed antenna rotation.
