Precision Navigator II: The Professional River Radar With Integrated ECDIS Map View and Inland AIS

Precision
Navigator II
The professional river radar with
integrated ECDIS map view and
inland AIS
The latest development from SWISS RADAR

sets new standards: for the first time, radar,
Inland AIS and ECDIS card are combined in
one compact unit. The Precision Navigator II,
the multifunctional navigation system that
leaves nothing to be desired.
One device multiple options.

The Precision Navigator II provides three directly selectable operating
modes: MAP, RADAR and ECDIS mode. In all three modes, AIS objects
can be faded in and out just by pressing a button.
MAP
RADAR
ECDIS
In MAP mode, the entire display

area is used for showing the map.
In RADAR mode, the pure radar

image is displayed.
In ECDIS mode, radar and ECDIS

are shown overlaid.
Other benefits at a glance:
SyncPlot
technology
Inland AIS
perfectly integrated
Brilliant
flat screen
In ECDIS mode, the map and the radar echoes are shown overlaid. SWISS
RADAR has developed a unique image
loading technology: SyncPlot technology. Radar echoes and the stored
map are updated simultaneously in
real time. The result is an ideal correspondence of the radar echoes on the
map at any time and uninterrupted
and smooth image loading.
Your AIS system is perfectly integrated in the Precision Navigator II. AIS
objects can be displayed in RADAR,
MAP and ECDIS mode. All approved
AIS devices are supported. In addition to the different display options,
you can also view the detailed AIS
information of the other vessels. But
SWISS RADAR goes one step further:
Your own AIS data can be edited directly with the Precision Navigator II.
You use the alphanumeric keyboard
(supplied) for this purpose. Information such as destination, estimated
time of arrival, or your other AIS information can be adapted quickly and
easily. Refer to the specifications to
see which AIS devices are supported
by this easy-to-use control system.
The high-contrast, compact 19

TFT monitor offers very high visibility, even in strong ambient light. At
the touch of a button, five different
colour combinations can be chosen
for day and night. The brightness of
the monitor can be easily controlled
via a rotary knob on the keyboard.
Screenshot
All versions of the Precision Navigator
II can save screenshots. The pictures
can be easily exported to a USB stick
and displayed on any PC.
Blackbox
Recording
In the event of an accident or other
special events, you are very well protected with the Precision Navigator II:
When the unit is switched on, all visual information is recorded as a video
file all the time. These records can be
viewed directly on the device or exported via a USB stick. The default
recording period is 24 hours, this may
be increased if so desired. The video
files are Windows-compatible.
Intuitive
Operation
The compact control unit allows direct access to all the devices functions. Important functions such as
range selection, hiding of the AIS
objects or switching between RADAR, MAP and ECDIS mode can be
controlled directly just by pressing a
button. Advanced functions are available via a clearly arranged menu. The
newly developed control concept allows accurate and fast control, even
in difficult situations. To enter text,
for example, when editing your own
AIS data, the alphanumeric keyboard
(supplied) can be used.
