Description

Remote Station Data and Control Analysis

Operational limitations at secondary helm stations often prevent rapid autopilot response during critical docking maneuvers. The Furuno Second Control Unit for NavPilot 711C provides full system redundancy. This unit delivers localized command over the hydraulic processor.

Communication occurs via the CAN bus protocol for instantaneous synchronization with the primary processor. The high-resolution color LCD provides visual heading confirmation in direct sunlight. Protective gaskets ensure the unit meets IP56 environmental standards for open flybridge installations.

Strategic Vessel Application

Designed for multi-station vessels requiring independent NavPilot 711C control from the flybridge or cockpit.

Technical Key Features

  • CAN bus architecture ensures zero latency control
  • IP56 rated housing resists heavy sea spray
  • Color LCD provides 16 bit high resolution graphics
  • Day and night modes optimize screen visibility
  • Dedicated function keys allow rapid mode selection
  • Standardized NMEA 0183 port supports legacy sensors
  • Flush mount design integrates into compact consoles

Furuno NavPilot 711C Second Control Unit Technical Guide

How do you add a second NavPilot 711C to an existing system?
The second control unit connects to the primary processor unit via the Furuno CAN bus (NMEA 2000) network. It acts as a remote station, allowing full control of the autopilot from the flybridge or a secondary helm. Ensure the CAN bus power supply is sufficient to support the additional color LCD unit.
What are the display features of the 711C unit?
The unit features a sunlight-viewable color LCD with high-contrast graphics for easy reading in open-cockpit environments. It provides multiple display modes, including 3D steering, compass rose, and digital data overlays. The interface is designed for intuitive menu navigation using a combination of buttons and a rotary encoder.
Does the second unit require a separate CCU or compass?
No, the second control unit shares the existing compass, processor, and rudder feedback data through the network. It functions as a mirrored interface, meaning any setting changed on the second unit is updated on the primary unit instantly. This ensures consistent autopilot behavior across all helm stations on the vessel.
What is the waterproof rating for outdoor helm installation?
The NavPilot 711C control head is rated IP56, providing protection against heavy seas and powerful water jets from any direction. It is built to withstand prolonged UV exposure and extreme temperature fluctuations common in maritime environments. Use the provided sun cover when the unit is not in active use.
What mounting options are available for the 711C?
The unit supports both flush mounting for a clean console appearance and bracket mounting for adjustable viewing angles. It requires a standard cutout size similar to other Furuno 700 series instruments for easy helm integration. Tighten the mounting screws evenly to maintain the integrity of the rear-panel waterproof gasket.
