Product information "Simrad - AP48 Autopilot controller"
The AP48 autopilot controller is a first class operator unit in modern glass helmet design, which was developed specifically for Continuum autopilot systems.
The AP48 that has been developed a special value on responsiveness and user friendliness was placed under all conditions, has a large aluminum knob as well as dedicated 'fast access keys' which the adjustment of the bearing to port or starboard in single or ten-degree increments allow.
With an optically connected 4.1-inch display and intuitive user interface of the AP48 allows full access to the expanded Continuum control functions, including automated turning pattern, no-drift control, depth contour tracking and more.
Key features
- Intuitive autopilot menu with extended keypad
- Large rotary knob for precise control, the highest demands
- Continuum control technology
- Optical connected 4.1-inch color display
- Ultra Next 170-degree viewing angle
- Dedicated A-degree or ten-degree quick access buttons for setting after baking / starboard
- Automated reversal pattern for fuel-efficient hands-free maneuvers
- The NoDrift control without drift keeps your course against wind and tide
- Depth Contour Tracking makes fishing easier in areas with rocky outcrops and slopes
- Easy setup with automatic tuning and calibration
- Flat Glass helmet design
- Certified NMEA 2000® port
Intuitive autopilot menu with extended keypad
The AP48 combines the intuitive operation of the compact AP44 with a larger knob, dedicated 'Quick Access Keys' and other enhanced keypad controls.
The knob of the AP48 ensures precise control, while the quick access buttons enable fast Peilungsänderungen in single or ten degree increments.
The large, designed for optimum control in all conditions rubberized buttons on the AP48 can very well operate with wet hands or gloves.
Continuum control technology
Each Simrad control innovation is based on sixty years of experience in the development of the autopilot, which continues today in Autopilot Research Center for Simrad Yachting in Norway.
Illustrative of this legacy is the Continuum algorithm: the software that drives the Simrad control technology.
Continuum control brings many years of research and experience on the water in your rudder system, for an intelligent autopilot, allowing you to leave the steering wheel on trust.
Simrad autopilot solutions are available for a wide range of applications: from small pleasure boats to large commercial vessels.
Optically connected 4.1-inch color display
To ensure maximum visibility under all conditions, the color LCD display is optically connected with its protection glass envelope - characterized fogging and condensation can be prevented in the display area.
Transflective LCD technology uses reflected sunlight by brightens the display rather than obscured.
Compared to traditional backlit display so excellent daylight visibility and reduced power consumption can be achieved.
Integrated turn patterns
Your Simrad autopilot can hold far more than you on track.
The AP48 provides easy access to a variety of installed reversal patterns that help you or fishing or diving assist you in conducting a quick and efficient U-turn.
Select a turn, select port or starboard and off you go.
If you want more control, you can adjust the turn pattern to drive complex spirals, zigzags and other useful maneuvers.
No drift control
The no-drift mode integrates the GPS navigation and car control; while the position is being used by your boat, in order to counteract the effects of wind and tide.
This allows you to maintain a straight course over ground on your current course, having to manually without a waypoint or a route.
To take advantage of this powerful feature, the AP48 just have a connected via NMEA 2000® GPS receiver or compatible Simrad chartplotters are combined.
Depth Contour Tracking
Connect your AP48 autopilot system with a compatible sounder module to enable depth contour tracking.
In this mode, the AP48 provides by car control that is below your boat a constant water depth is maintained - to be perfectly designed for the effects of depth contours while fishing or sailing without complex routes with multiple waypoints.
Easy setup with automatic fine tuning
Installation and commissioning of the autopilot do not have to be time consuming or complicated.
By means of a simple commissioning using on-screen instructions of the AP48 allows automatic tuning for optimal control car, including mooring configuration and sea trials.
The automatic compass calibration is possible with the Simrad Precision-9 solid-state compass.
This allows the autopilot setup is further simplified and ensures the rate accuracy.
Flat 'Glass Helm' design
Designed for use with Simrad Glass helmet displays, instruments and operating units that AP48 has a modern design with a flat recessed profile of only eight millimeters (without knob).
Thanks to the intelligent layouts display and control panel of the AP48 of practical size, but while he has a total of a small footprint, which allows easy installation almost anywhere.
To ensure even greater flexibility, the controller next to the flat installation is also suitable for fixing by means of a strap holder.
