This graphical engine monitoring system is available for engines
outputting data via NMEA2000
®
or an appropriate interface device
supporting NMEA2000
®
. Depending on the engine system and
interface, some data may not be transmitted on the databus. If not
readily available, please contact the engine manufacturer or your
local Simrad dealer.
The CX NavStation is capable of receiving and presenting vari-
ous engine data in either full screen or split screen with two or all
three data displays on same screen. The menu points 4, 5 and 6 are
a second set of displays, which only will be visible if the system
detected more than two engines on board.
For dual engines, the system provides ‘dual bar analog instruments
to give a precise overview of the rpm synchronization and to make
direct comparison of data between the two engines.
The displays can be accessed one at a time via the Engine menu or
all three displays at once by pressing:
MENU
Call up the menu bar, and...
4,8
press [4] and [8] to call up a custom made screen presenting the
position display and all three engine displays
This custom made screen is from the pilot menu. Refer to section
6.8 Pilot custom screens, where you also can read about how to
exchange the engine monitoring displays with other displays more
relevant in case you do not have engines on board which are capable
of outputting the required data.
